Default RAINSONG APLE 12 FRET SS (SOLD)

For sale my 12 fret short scale APLE from Rainsong, like new condition and set up for optimum play. Easy action short scale and wonderful tone, I have used it in live performance with the Fishman blend mic and under saddle pickup and it mixes very well and sounds smooth and warm.
It is in a Sunburst gloss finish and has the Gotoh 21:1 tuners which are super. It plays as easily as an electric guitar and has the N2 neck profile which I find almost mimics my SC triple O, just as comfortable for long play. Very light weight and it comes in a very substantial hard shell case, also new as it has not been used. I use a Gator gig bag for travel.
These are no longer available from Rainsong and IMO are the best they ever made, triple O size, short scale, 13/4" neck and pretty much impervious to climate.
Offering it up at 1800.00 and 50 bucks to ship it anywhere in the CONUS, I'll cover PP. A real bargain for one of these as they are few and far between. I just simply am not using it now. https://oregoncoast.craigslist.org/m...351894405.html. .https://youtu.be/wJShYOODMzw

I am slowly becoming interested in getting a Carbon Fiber guitar. I may me interested in something like this soon. I am in the middle of making up my mind on Rainsong APLE or CO WS1000N2 vs Emerald X20 or X7 or even something like a Journey Instruments OF660 overhead guitar.. kind of a novelty but the utility of it an sound is pretty impressive for such a little guitar.
I am an Al Petteway fan and a fingerstyle player so this guitar does appeal to me. I don't mean to waste your time, I just wanted to comment, and your post got me thinking about the APLE again... I still have a lot of thinking and research to do.

No problem, these are no longer made, the APSE replaced them, Matt finish I prefer the gloss, easy to keep looking new....

The pick guard shown on the guitar was removed this morning, I had it on so my small finger wouldn't leave a mark when playing, there is no sign of any kind that it was ever there. Top is perfect. I have another new one as I originally ordered two and if the new owner wants one I will include it, it is gloss black. These go on and off very easily and leave NO adhesive or marks when removed.
