I got the second one because it was a good trade and I needed an acoustic I could plug in.charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17012080465386456217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569201595524785729.post-86999665086372007432010-04-08T12:22:01.559-07:002010-04-08T12:22:01.559-07:00Two vintage J-45s?

Still have it, all original except for Schaller tuners I put on. In the past 20 years I have used it mainly for recording.<br /><br />Over the years I have given away two old Harmony Rockets - saw one in a music store the other day for $650. <br /><br />Worst mistake letting one get away: a Mosrite Ventures model that I traded for a middling Les Paul. Although I later traded the Les Paul for another J-45, 1963 model<br /><br />I don't think I'l ever sell or trade any of the guitars I own today.charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17012080465386456217noreply@blogger.com
