Strunal 1/4 size Classical Guitar (Guitalele)

Tuned ADGCEA w/ Savarez Classic Low Tension Classical Guitar Strings
(D'addario pro-arte normal tensions included upon request)
Laminated Mahogany Back and Sides
Slotted Headstock
Extremely tight tuners (not sure of the brand)

I use this mostly for hands on transposition of songs I know on guitar. Its just a short step to the guitar chords on guitalele, then you just drop the top 2 strings for the Uke. When I was still as much of a guitar player as uke player, I played this for a while more than either one. Now that I'm pretty much uke only, It doesn't get the playing time it needs.

Tone: Very warm and full. This is a great instrument to accompany uke, whether your jamming w/ your friends who play guitar, or playing a "bass" line or rythym part for the uke, its a great accompanyment instrument. I think it sounds great played with a punchy spruce top uke, its mellow rich full tone is a nice contrast.

Condition: This solid cedar top is extremely soft and there is a rather large gouge in the soundboard above the soundhole. It doesnt damage anything structurally or the tone but it is a bit unsightly. There also some small pick gouges (yet again I loaned it to someone to record with, and for some reason he used a pick) below the soundhole.

Asking $100 + Shipping

I was waiting on replying on to your PM untill I heard back from musicians friend and lanikai. As of yet I'm waiting on an email. And shipping isnt included in the initial price
 
thats my new one, just there for scale reference for the concert... the lanakai is about the same size, so i probably shouldve used that but the kala was out.
 
here you can see the pickmarked soundhole and ugly gouge above the soundhole
