Hi,

Just wondering where else I should / could be looking for s/h acoustic guitar bargains - apart from here, AGF and ebay. I'm in the UK, most people in the US seem happy to ship here (no reason why not to!).

Thanks,
Dan
Larrivees LV-09, L-05MT and P-03; Lowdens S-7 (1988) (FOR SALE), O-12 (2004)  and Baritone (2009); McIlroys A25c (2003) and A25c custom (2010); Sada Yairi Soloist (1965) - nylon string; Parker NiteFly with Roland GK-2a MIDI pickup; PBC superstrat and 5 string bass; AER Compact 60.

you can try  www.harmony-central.com  in their used classifieds section.


www.gbase.com  is mostly dealers but there are deals to be had with careful shopping.

Not sure about "bargains", but for a good "buy", I have had luck at the UMGF.com Buy and Sell section, if you like the idea of a nice Martin.

I listed a bunch in an article I wrote on guitarnoise.  I'll see if I can find the link.

There are many on-line dealers that have used guitar sections.  It's definately hit-and-miss, but worth monitoring if you're not in a hurry.  Here are a few off the top of my head (well, OK, I did a search):

www.andysguitars.com
www.guitaradoptions.com
www.notableguitars.com
www.shorelinemusic.com
www.fqms.com - first quality music
www.meridianmusic.com
www.guitarworksltd.com
www.thepodium.com
www.12fret.com
www.elderly.com/vintage/UIL.htm
www.quincysguitars.com

Good luck!
