Galloup student build archtop jazz guitar FS/FT $3000 - no longer available

[PunkKitty]

I've decided to sell or trade this guitar. I'm asking $3k but I'm open to offers. I'll consider trades of a Heritage H-535/555 and/or a Rickenbacker bass. I'm open to other trade suggestions. I'd prefer a local Chicago deal (within 200 miles) so I can hand deliver this. I'd like to avoid shipping.

Solid spruce top. Solid figured maple back and sides. Ebony fretboard. All hand made. I don't know the origin of the pickup, but it sounds good. I just had this guitar set up with flatwounds. It plays very well and sounds fantastic. It's just not right for me.

Good luck -- hope you get a good price for it.

It is a beautiful jazz box

I've decided to keep it. Maybe I'll even go back to playing jazz. I just don't think I'll ever be able to afford another guitar this nice, so I want to make the most of it.

Super glad to hear this.

That is a SWEET guitar, for sure.
