WTB a nice Jumbo! Up to £750

Prefer to purchase second hand - what's on offer? Or any ideas on new models that are good at this price range?

Might be interested in shifting a Guild JF30. - maple and spruce Chinese made and fitted with a K&K pure mini. There are a few small dents on the bottom of the belly but nothing serious.

The case is OK but it has needed a few minor repairs including a new handle.

I'd be looking for about £400.00. I'm in Merseyside, so you could come and try it as you seem to be in Lancs.

I'd personally be on the lookout for a nice second hand eastman for that budget.

Hi. I have a Rob Armstrong Jumbo. Made in 1997. A solid woods made in the UK by hand. Great condition for age. It has a mighty sound. Indian Rosewood back and sides and a spruce top. Gotoh 510 tuners. Was hoping to get about 1000 but would let it go for 850. Based in Lancs.

Is this a smaller jumbo?

Armstrong guitars are the real thing.

No. A big guitar. 16 and 1/2 inches at the lower bout. Send me your email and I can send some pics.

It has a small sound port at the waist of the guitar. Lots of bass and sustain. Comes with new hard case. kenhoward25@googlemail.com
