**I'll be leaving on vacation Thursday morning. If you buy it tomorrow (Wednesday) I will sell it for 250,000 won. This is so I don't have to deal with storing and moving it. I can meet anywhere from northern Seoul/Uijeongbu to Gangnam.

Reply to this post or send me a PM if interested.**

That's a really sweet guitar. I already have 4 guitars. Looks really nice, but I don't want my wife to kill me. Very Happy

I'm definitely interested, but I live in Daegu. Where do you live? If you're in Seoul, I may be heading that way pretty soon. Let me know.

I live in northern Seoul but will be moving to southern Seoul. If meeting on the weekdays, I would probably be limited to meeting in northern Seoul due to my work schedule.

Yeah the looks are a little unorthodox Smile but the sound is what sold me on this guitar. It puts out a lot of volume with punchy bass, perfect for strumming and live playing. I unfortunately don't play it much after I bought a folk fingerstyle guitar.

That was my first thought right after, "I want it". Funny how us married guys think alike.

The posting and membership requirements for this site are worse than for the Freemasons! Whoops. Am I out of both clubs now?

I want the guitar!! I presume you're on vacation but when you get back...

I want the guitar!! North of the river is fine by me. Meet anywhere in Itaewon, Shinchon, downtown...

Awesome.

Edit: Ha ha ha. I see I forgot to include my email. It's [email protected]. Let's do this thing!
