Hi Nattydread

I'm assuming by the budget that you're just looking for a strum-along. If that's the case, there are plenty of new acoustic guitars that can be had for that price, and lower. All the major department stores have a guitar shop, and you can also pick up a plethora of guitars of varying shapes and sizes from those bric-a-brac types of shops around the moat. they're same shops that sell washing machines, bicycles, racks and stands etc.

Try the shops on the north side of the moat east of Chotana Road.

I have a beautiful George Washburn D11TR in top condition with a high quality hard case but at 9000 THB it may be over your budget.

Good luck finding what fits your needs.

May i ask why you would be selling it then Dustoff? I'm not much or a guitar player myself, but even so I love my instruments. I have an old Ibanez jumbo acoustic that is 3rd hand and around 20 years old now, and i wouldn't sell it for all the tea in China. Well, maybe i would, but i wouldn't let it go easily unless i was starving hungry.

I've seen few at the secondhand market

Try to search "rattanakosin rd" in http://maps.google.com

It's placed on the right hand about 300 metres west from "A" (bridge). It seems to me that is Saturday market.

I know, eh? Unfortunately we will in the spring be changing our primary residence to Maui and spending a lot less time in our home here in CM. Since I am pressuring my wife to get rid of stuff she doesn't use.. you know the rest of the story.. I just tend to carry stuff like that around even tho I have no musical talent and even carried a beautiful silver flute around with me for decades because I was a huge fan of Jean-Pierre Rampal. Go figure..

This thing is so immaculate and gorgeous in red mountain ash that when our son (at age 13) decided to take lessons, I wouldn't let him touch this Washburn and bought him an inexpensive knock-off for his initial lessons. I wouldn't let him touch my mistress either - that is, umm, if I had one...

I also just recently sold my Honda 750 Shadow motorcycle and boy was THAT hard to see go down the road with someone else riding it!
