Anyway, hope you enjoy the Hard Wood, Long. (failed pun? )

The FL2 was $950CAD used with its own case. Smoothest sounding guitar I've ever played. Chords just blend so gracefully.

Long! Glad to have another acoustic junkie in here! Wait...who am I kidding? I'm not an acoustic junkie

Well, not as much as our Canadian moderator is at least

I think with 6 months of feeling like crap a guitar and a how to book will help pass the time. I have about $300 saved up and hoping i can get something with that. So if you have any gear just laying around and happen to need some cash please think of me.
I am not looking for a hand out like I said i do have $300 to spend. But I will want a model # and make so i can look it up and know what i am getting.
Thanks for looking.
im not asking for a hand out i do have some cash.

These are pretty much the definitive starter amps. It has a clean channel and an overdrive/distortion channel so it can do anything from country to blues to rock. It also has reverb, chorus, flange, and delay effects built in so you won't have to buy any pedals. It has 15 watts of power into one 8" speaker.

I wasn't really planning on selling it, but it sounds like you could use it a lot more than I could. Looks like these are about $200 new. Mine is in great cosmetic condition and flawless mechanical condition. I saw the 10 watt version without the effects listed for $125 today. Given your situation, how about $100 and I will bring it to you. I figure you will really need about $200 left out of your $300 to get a decent guitar. I don't really have any beginner level guitars, but I would be happy to make some recommendations if you are looking for an honest opinion.

Let me know what you think!

The neck is California Walnut and bridge and fingerboard are Katalox; the fingerboard being inlaid with Spalted Maple. Bindings are done in Purpleheart and the headstock is slotted and pagoda style. Nut and saddle are bone and premium Gotoh butterbean tuners are used for machines. Scale length is 25.375, nut width is 1 13/16 and it is 2 ¼ at the 12th fret. This instrument has a Venetian cutaway and a sound port on the upper bout enhancing the listening for the player."

I can't play-test it yet as I'm still kicking ass in the sandy bootyhole of the world, but I'm very interested in it. It's also crazy expensive. Probably won't happen, but that's what dreams are for AMIRITE??

Anywho, looking for opinions/knowledge on the rare Katalox tonewood that has been used. Can't find much on it, curious as to how it sounds. It's most obviously BEAUTIFUL

I have a Marshall MG15DFX sitting in the closet, which I thought sounded like a good option for this guy. So I send him this message:



Now obviously this isn't a boutique tube amplifier or anything, but everything I said is absolutely true imo and I really don't think the guy has a better option in his price range. Also keep in mind that I am offering to drive over an hour each way and over 130 miles total.

This is the response I get:



So what do you guys think? Am I wrong here? Do you guys think I was misleading or anything? Can this guy get a better amp with a $300 budget for guitar and amp?
