I would sell for cash or part ex but I would prefer a trade for a Semi-Hollow Gibson or a White Falcon (I don't really get on with the blue colour)

The guitar comes with it's fitted hardcase and paperwork. It's been gigged about 5 times and only used at home in and out of the case. Ive tried to put the photos in, not sure if it's worked (this is my first post on here).

Any other questions please ask!
Cheers!

Gorgeous. You might want to mention that it has TV Jones pickups, which is a good selling point.

Cheers, I copied all of the specs from a website, without reading them!

That is lovely. You don't like Gibson R6's do you..?

Sorry @badlydrawnbanjo looking for something Hollow/Semi Thanks though!

badlydrawnbanjo

No worries. I think I'm a little in love though.

I have almost exactly the same guitar, but in Lake Placid Blue. It's a brilliant guitar.

If that had been a white falcon jr I wound have had it straight away. 
Anyway I wish you luck with the sale.

@Wazmeister - get a load of this

It's worth noting that this guitar is essentially a 6120 (which is a good thing), given the 16" width, 2.5" depth and short scale. It's just a lot prettier than your average 6120.

They call these Falcon Juniors but Juniors have traditionally had 14" bodies.
