Gone: Furch/Stonebridge D22-CM

edited March 2018 in Acoustics £
In an ideal world I would keep this, but given a recent purchase and the fact that I want to focus on one thing at a time, this brilliant guitar is sat in the corner of my room. If I was playing acoustic seriously, I would not sell it. If I decide to play acoustic again, this is the guitar that I would look for - and I am not saying this to up the guitar - it is genuinely an outstanding instrument and one of the best acoustics I have ever played - strummed or finger style. The pickup system is one of the best dual source ones available on the market, Swiss made by Schertler. The amplifier is likewise a bliss.

I ended up selling and buying this guitar back, but during the time in between I learned more about my playing and bought a new Furch OM. This is a seriously good instrument, 45mm nut, loads of overtones and a very warm voice.

Condition: Excellent to mint - babied with humidity checks, no significant marks or issues. Neck is beautifully set up and a joy to play.

Includes: Stonebridge/Furch D22-CM guitar with cedar top and mahogany sides and back. Furch/Hiscox Liteflite Hardshell Case. Original strap pin and nickel tuning pegs.

Cost: To purchase new, the guitar and case are currently available from Thomann on sale for £1.1k

Would like to trade for a nice electric. Can include a Fishman Rare Earth Blend pickup system depending on guitar value.

    oooh, tempting. Where are you based? And is there anything you'd consider in part exchange, or are you purely after cash?

    I'm in South Wales, happy to post or meet within reason. Not really looking for any trades to be honest as I've made a recent purchase and need to cover the cost of it. I will consider an interesting electric guitar pedal or two however.

    Hmmm, unfortunately I'm right over the other side of the country. I'll have a think...

    Looks stunning! 
     so if you fancy a reissue of a guitar they never made in a colour they never used then it probably isn't too overpriced.

    It is @Chris_J ;, that one is now on my OM Furch and I have a Rare Earth blend that can go on the dreadnought. They're both excellent pickups. The Schertler *looks* nicer

    Do you have a figure WITHOUT Fishman Rare Earth Blend installed? (I'm not a fan of that system.)
    You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.
