Question I've been looking for one of these, are you selling one?
Answer No, I am not a dealer, and dont sell many instruments at all.. I am more of a collector and avid fan of all things guitar. My specialty is more in the set up and minor repair areas.. I can also assist with finding dealers, and information about certain guitars... But selling isn't something I do. I really am not keen on giving values.. I will be happy to research and tell you what they are selling for, and even giving the "blue blook" value.. But, each guitar really needs to be individually inspected by hand, and given a true appraisal. Which cannot be done through email correspondence.. As for a Lowden LSE, which model in particular? There are quite a few LSE models, and I would be happy to look around, and ask around for you..
