It is new
Hi Boomslang,
I won this one in a raffle a few weeks ago. As far as I can tell, it is brand new. Thanks for your help in pricing it. It sounds great, although with all new sets of strings, they are still settling in as far as holding their pitch when tuned. It is a beautiful instrument and the sound is excellent. I wish it was a concert or tenor. As a former guitar player, I just can't get used to the small size. I wanted to trade it in at my local music store, but they would only give me half what it is worth retail in store credit, and the guy who was negotiating with me even said I could probably get a better deal than that on the internet. I have been hoping someone from UU would want it, but there has not been much real interest, so I am thinking about Craig's List. That way, no shipping cost are invovled. What do you think?
