Boo Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Do any of you wonderful people have any unwanted or broken acoustic guitars that you want rid of? Preferably with good necks and heads, not arsed about the bodies or whether the strings are bust.Got a couple of projects in the pipeline. Thanks in advance.

Members bolty58 Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 Yes mate. I have a perfectly fine Spanish guitar which I will never use again collecting dust in my study. Â When will you call round to collect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I thought that if you had an acoustic guitar that it meant you were a protest singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big City Girl Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I've got an acoustic guitar, but it's my Dad's (so no). I was determined to learn it. Sat down, mastered Chord A, then got bored. Currently collecting dust in the corner of my living room.

The OP referred to an acoustic guitar, no mention of Spanish 2. My comment was actually a song lyric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted March 2, 2017 Members Share Posted March 2, 2017 Is it Bolty Towers UK? Â Â Sadly mate, downsizing to a 4 bed, 3 bath house means I no longer reside at Bolty Towers. Â I do miss the tower. I used to fly the flag of St.George from it each time we had a great victory (especially over the Aussies). Now I have to drape it from my balcony. Â In these more austere times, we all have to make the odd sacrifice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
