FS Washburn Rover - tiny guitar!

Figured there might be some interest amongst uke players for this one!

I'm selling a Washburn Rover travel guitar, with fitted case. This is a steel strung, 24" scale guitar with an itty-bitty body. See photos for comparison to a tenor ukulele:



Solid spruce top, laminate mahogany (sapele) back & sides, rosewood bridge and fretboard, truss rod. Fitted hard foam case. The whole package is designed to be able to stow in an overhead bin on an airplane.

More photos and description in the next post!

Couple more pictures:



PLEASE NOTE: I purchased this guitar as a refurbished b-stock. The bridge was lifting a little bit, but it has been effectively (if somewhat inelegantly) reglued. See pic below:



The bridge repair is solid. Washburn recommends using light/extralight strings (9's or 10's) anyway, and I wouldn't foresee there being any problems.

Asking $120, which includes CONUS shipping. Payment by Paypal gift payment please. Please post or pm me with questions!

Still available!

Looks like it's in nice shape. If this were nylon string with 52MM NUT, you'd have my money already.

According to Washburn, the nut is 43mm, which is too small for me to play comfortably with 6 strings....

However, good luck with the sale, this is a great instrument - someone will be very happy with it!

You are right Booli, the Rover has a 43 mm nut, which is a pretty standard nut width for steel strung guitars, especially those intended for flatpicking. Washburn did ever so briefly produce a nylon strung version with a wider nut, but they are scarce as hens' teeth. This one can be fingerpicked, but if you're used to ukulele string spacing it'll take some getting used to.

I got excited thinking this is a nylon !
It's a very smart way to post tiny guitar in this forum.
I am sure many of us are interested in a tiny guitar.
I will keep checking and keep hoping a nylon will become available here!
Best of luck with the sale!
