SOLD: Seagull S6+ Folk guitar w/ TRIC case- $225
I have only one rule with guitars: no more than five of them at a time. So this one's number is up.
The Seagull S6 Folk is often praised hereabouts for its tone and playability. It's barely larger than a parlour guitar, but provides much more volume and bass than most of them. This is a great fingerpickers' guitar, with its 1.8 inch nut width and aged cedar top (this is a 2002 model). I've added a bone saddle from Mac Pherson, and that added some heft to the bass. This does not sound like a small guitar! You won't likely find another one this old in better playing condition. After a couple frets started rising last winter, I had a shop correct all problematic frets and do a complete setup, totaling about $100 of work. Today, it's the probably the easiest-playing acoustic I own. Included is an almost-new Seagull TRIC case. An interesting fact: mice find the foam lining of these case straps irresistibly tasty. That's why this case is missing its shoulder straps, but it's otherwise pristine. The top has a couple of dents below the bridge that show up against the light. There's a patch below the soundhole, where fingertips rested, where the grain is opening up and feels rougher. There's no discoloration, and it could be sanded down. Such is the life of a middle-aged cedartop- let's call them "beauty marks." Overall, this guitar profiles as a fine campfire or cabin guitar. It's also an excellent choice for a novice player looking for maximum sound from minimal effort. I'm open to reasonable offers on this, but no trades. I have a six-guitar problem, remember?

This looks like a great example of what are immensely fun guitars to play. I had a spruce top SWS folk and let it go all too soon. That's the one I think about when I'm rolling over in bed. Good luck!

Zombie thread?
Please take note:
This thread is about three months old with no activity until earlier today. Perhaps the OP will tune in and clarify the current status of the guitar. |

Price Drop to $250
Yes, it's still available, and I still need to thin my herd.

Laminate or solid wood?
I'm looking for a camping guitar. Would prefer laminate back and sides. What about this Seagull in that regard? Thanks. Larry

Yep...
That's exactly what it is, Seagull's common Wild Cherry Laminate with a solid Cedar top.
