I have a Crafter SA-IVO acoustic/electric for sale...beautiful guitar, looks brand new, plays like a dream. I can let you have it for 300.00. They usually go for close to 800.00 new.

I also have a Roland Mobile Cube for sale for 100.00

Call me at (340) 719-3500 ext 122 if you're interested.

Acoustic/Electric guitar for sale

I have a Washburn WD20SCE acoustic/electric guitar for sale, with case, in excellent condition.

I had a luthier install a Fishman Rare Earth magnetic pickup on it (this pickup alone costs almost $200.00).

Guitar specs:
•Dreadnought cutaway style
•Solid Alaskan Sitka Spruce top
•Quarter sawn scalloped bracing
•Rosewood sides and back
•Satin finished mahogany neck with two-way trussrod
•Rosewood fingerboard and bridge with bone nut and saddle.
•Rosewood capped headstock with MOP Washburn logo & stylized W inlay
•Die cast chrome tuners

The action is excellent. It is very easy to play. I like my action low so I had the luthier adjust it professionally. This guitar has been set up by professionals.

You can have it for $175.00.
Call me at (340) 642-8538

Yes, that one is gone...I posted a video of the Crafter at

It has a lipstick pickup, and also a piezo transducer. You can blend the outputs of both.

PS...any spots you see in the pictures are from the camera lens, not on the guitar...it is in pristine condition.

That's a real beauty, but I'm looking for something less expensive and, frankly, not as nice. I just need a straight acoustic I can bang around on to practice, and something that I'm not worried about warping or getting otherwise harmed by the harsh marine environment of my condo.

I hear you...check with Rachel at (340) 277-3855 (she's a luthier, and she may know somebody who has one for sale.)

Anyway, I play the Crafter live on this clip (at Beachside Cafe)...

Yes! Felipe Garcia actually has guitars in a very reasonable (under 200.00) price range. His store (Music Authority) is located south-west of the Scotia Bank near Sunny Isle.
