Thread Name: Information on a Crown Accoustic Guitar?
Subject: RE: Information on a Crown Accoustic Guitar?
Well that was anticlimactic. Something went wonky. The above guitar is at Marc Silber Music
There's no photo but I infer the following:
laminated top--this is a polite way of saying "cheap student instrument". But at $325 it's not all that cheap. Since they don't really describe it, I'd guess it's not mint like yours. So there's an asking price for you to try. The trick is to advertise it where there are aspiring flamenco players. Maybe eBay.
BWL may be right, and for sure the tuning pegs are a deterrent to those who want a guitar, not a flamenco guitar.
On the bright side, "early 70's made in Japan" is not necessarily a derogatory description. Some of the best Yamahas fit that. (the ones from before Martin sued them).
