Default BLACKBIRD El Capitan

TRADED******* Blackbird El Capitan. shipped and pay paled to Cont. U.S. only. I've not had it long and really just wanted to try it. This is not really a "travel" guitar...it's a mini jumbo...full size....so I'm keeping my Rainsong Shorty for that...ONLY...due to the size.(Acoustically this guitar blows it away by miles!!) This is really the only guitar you need. Guitar does have a sound port...(see photos below). If you want the best sounding guitar to do gigs with...that is impervious to the elements...THIS IS IT!!!

Video made on iPhone:

this is just on an iPhone...guitar actually sounds better in person!!!

Look at the Blackbird site for specs:
https://www.blackbirdguitar.com/coll...cts/el-capitan

My guitar does not have the pick guard. It has the MiSi pickup system that it shows on the Blackbird website and it has an armrest. The pickup is good but the "high" e string is not very loud. This can be adjusted...just letting you know for full disclosure. Comes with the Blackbird case.

Default one more bump

One more bump folks...this is your last chance...I've had one trade offer and at 10 o'clock tonight I'll accept it. (Unless this sells or I get something else I need...the trade offer is for a Rainsong...I don't "need" another Rainsong but this one has the onboard preamp with the tuner and I can use that!!)...if you want the best "wood like sounding" guitar that's not wood...this is it!!!!..

Default don't miss this..

Folks...don't miss this...it's the most wood sounding of any of the composite guitars....it's sounds more like wood than "wood" does....(and that ain't easy to do!!)...open to any and all trade offers....electric/acoustic..new old...Martin/ Gibby/...if interested at all and got something to trade...let me know...all I can say is Yes or No...
