Is there a Breedlove forum with a buy/sell page? That would be your best market. Regarding price, used in excellent condition usually brings about 2/3s - 1/2 of street price new. In the case of Breedlove, probably closer to half. At that kind of return on investment, you might just want to keep it.

The buyer got a great buy and sounds like he will truly enjoy it. Great news all around!

Congrats on finding a buyer. The used market is full of bargains right now. I think it is definitely a buyer's market. There are a lot of great guitars at good prices that are sitting for quite some time. Glad it worked out!

All that being said, and all that you all said, the guitar is SOLD to a guy off this forum for $2750. He said that lowering the price put it in his range. He also said that he is a Breedlove guy and respects the brand. Really, all the points made in response to my request for help on the price of my A22 here on the forum proved to be true. He is the exact type of guitarist that appreciates what this guitar is and is ready to pay for what he wants, and gets.

Thanks very much for all the great input here. Now the sad part. Shipping my baby off to its new parents.

Excellent Doug, your buyer got a fantastic guitar at a great deal.
