The Acoustic Guitar Forum - For Sale: SOLD! Baden grand auditorium w/all solid wood, Fishman Aura+SKB flight case!

Hi everybody. I'm selling my hand made T.J baden A style acoustic/electric guitar. Pics will be available in my next post... It sounds lovely and rich but is suited more for a singer/songwriter perhaps. I think I need to return to a dreadnought whether she be carbon fiber or wood...

It's in great condition, has just been restrung with Elixir .12s, and polished etc. All solid wood, bone nut and saddle, and the Fishman Aura preamp system which is fantastic! List was almost $3k and dealer price was approx $2399.

Clear pick guard installed, includes two way humidification system and new nine volt battery for the preamp.

You have two case options... The stock baden case that came with the guitar is very nice. The case was a bit musty as it was in storage however, I cleaned it and let it air out and now it's not noticeable unless you stick your head inside the case and even then, that just might be me being really picky.

I have a hardly used mint SKB waterproof dreadnought flight case with wheels and although this guitar is a bit smaller than a dreadnought, it ended up being a perfect fit! The case can survive anything, has pullout handles, has a ton of storage space, and the wheels work really well. (Keys included.)

$749 with the baden hard case.

$999 with the flight case. (The flight case was over $300 and due to the size and weight, this will cost me quite a bit more to ship!)

Prices include packing, shipping, tracking, and full insurance to anywhere in the lower 48 states. Prices do not include pay pal fees.
