bassintheface Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) [b]Sale only..........[s] reduced from £300 to £280..........[/s][/b] [b]Take it off me for £250![/b] [b]I'm going to be in Leeds Thurs 28th March 2013 pm at Headingly Stadium. Can bring guitar with me......[/b] I have for sale my MINT condition Freshman Apollo 2 0 Acoustic guitar For those of you not familiar with the brand, see here - [url="http://www.freshmanguitars.net/reviews/"]http://www.freshmang...rs.net/reviews/[/url] It is an Apollo 2 0 which has a slightly smaller, almost 'folk' style body, though the adverts call it a 'Grand Auditorium Acoustic'. It is a lovely looking, if a little 'less is more' looks wise - which I like. Sounds wise, it's very detailed with decent volume. I don't know what it records like but it is really nice to play and a couple of friends (serious acoustic players - one who swears by old Martins and another who has a couple of Larrive's) were very impressed with its sound and overall build quality and finish etc and were both under the impression that it was a £700 / £800 guitar, not something at around half the price. I bought it around 2 years ago brand new with the intention of using it at home for writing and recording purposes. As is usual, things haven't quite gone to plan and my 'music' room is still nowhere near completion - due to a baby, work, a busy band, house refurb etc etc, the guitar hasn't been played in at least 12 months, and hardly before that to be honest! It is really in MINT condition, without a mark (none that I could find) on it. So it's like brand new condition, but with a decent gig bag. It would seem that it's now a discontinued model but I've found a few shops selling it on line for anywhere between £390 and £360 [url="http://www.elmusic.co.uk/shop/buy/Freshman/APOLLO_2_O/"]http://www.elmusic.c...man/APOLLO_2_O/[/url] [url="http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/acoustic_guitars_detail.asp?stock=08103116234628#ProductDetail"]http://www.guitargui...8#ProductDetail[/url] I'd really like a cash sale as I'm in the market for a Barefaced S12T but need to raise some cash towards it - I'll also include the unmarked, quality, padded gig bag I bought with it at the time. The guitar and gig bag literally haven't left the house since purchasing and having gone into the room tonight, I saw it sat there and thought it's such a waste not being used properly. You'll notice in the pics that it only has 5 strings - typically, I broke one tonight before I took the pics - I'll throw in a new set of strings with the price!! I'm looking for [b][s]£300[/s] £280 inc the gig bag[/b] with collection from Wrexham. I'm willing to meet somewhere close(ish) but I don't want to courier unless it's at your risk and cost as I've had a recent bad experience with another sale.
