This little guitar is great for jam sessions where you don't want to carry a lot of heavy gear. Made by Carvin, probably in the mid 70s, it has 8 strings and 3 legs. It's well used, but it still sounds great. Listen.
No case, but I'll throw in a Rogue gig bag and ill-fitting leg pouch (as shown). Price: $400 + shipping.

Hi Bob,
Are you happy to ship to the uk?
(I ask this not knowing how all the tax and import fees work so not sure of the cost implications)
Also how high do the legs go?
Also is that a straight C6 you have it tuned to? sounds great

I could ship it to UK. You'd probably have to pay your country's import tax, though.
The legs extend to about 42", but I don't trust the screws that hold them. The wingnut is missing on one of them - a pair of pliers would be needed to tighten it. I always play this guitar sitting down, sometimes on my lap, sometimes with the legs at their minimum length.
The current tuning as used on the recording is Am7 (C6), low to high A C E G A C E G. _________________ -𝕓𝕆𝕓- (admin) - Robert P. Lee - Recordings - Breathe - D6th - Video |
