Looks genuine mate.
Been played a lot I'd say, fret ware scratches etc.
Good price.
Seymour Duncan humbucker in the bridge. Ask him if he has the original. Just to have.
I prefer the humbucker, no hum :)

This is the one I've just ordered, within your price range.

I've had this a couple of weeks now.
Amazing acoustic for $250.
Id thoroughly recommend.
Great woods, lovely neck, perfectly finished.
Had to adjust the action as it was a tad high, took 10 minutes.
Even came with d'addario string's!
I've had many acoustics, this ranks highly, I don't know how they sell them at this price.

When I had my 12 string many moons ago I used to just put the 6 "normal" strings on first EADGBE, then a day or two after I'd put the octaves on. It just made the job more bearable.

That's the way to do it.

It's taken me two days to restring my 12 string acoustic....and the high octave G string snapped.

Just leave it off.Get a grey felt-tip pen and draw one on,nobody will ever notice.

funnily enough....

Just come across this little vid of me playing Blackbird, sound check just before a little gig.
Takamine guitar.
I've always loved playing Blackbird.

Looks nice. It's debatable whether you are better of with an 'American' made or a new cheaper version. I was just looking in the window at forsyths in town and they have a fender player strat for 499. You could get that new with a case and maybe get the pickups upgraded.

To be honest I quite like getting used guitar's nowadays - better for the environment and plenty to go round as is.

Not sure what it is but this one just seemed to hit my right between the eyes for some reason.

Still working through the inner turmoil as to whether I but it or not...........

I think if you are going to use your guitars a lot and they are going to end up showing some signs of life then might as well get used. You don't feel so bad when it gets that first scratch. A new one is lovely but its only lovely for so long.
