Weissenborne new price Sold

Post by Robert Murphy »

No label Import laminate mahogany guitar. New set of Newtone "Aloha" strings, low tension recommended. When I got this guitar it had a major belly ache. I installed a JLD Bridge Saver which works wonders. Nice deep bass tones. The fit and finish is shiny but blems are what the imports are known for. Great starter guitar,I'm moving up. Shipped to USA address for $XXX no case. Needs a home.

Robert, I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind. What is the scale length and current tuning? Also, do you know of any source for a case or gig bag for this big puppy?
Depending on the answers, I just might be interested. The price sure is right.
Thanks.

Scale length is 24.75 and the tuning is DGDGBD but any of the low bass tunings will work. EAEAC#E, DADF#AD or EBEG#BE. SKB-GB18 is a dreadnaught case that should work from Sweetwater at $40. The guitar is 38"x 15.25"x 5". The upper bout ends at 20". Here it is next to a dread sized 9 string.

Thanks for your detailed reply. I was thinking that with such a deep body, it might have a longer, i.e., baritone, scale length.
