Mine still hangs in the spare room with 30 year old strings on it. It dates from the mid 60's and they were, within a few bob, 35 quid new. They were OK for their time but too heavily built and consequently too quiet but not as quiet as the six string version. Fortunately, I never owned one of those. I went on to the Yamaha FG180 and have since passed on to an ever growing stable of more exotic paraphernalia.
