I made this baritone guitar out of a brand new Washburn
Oscar Schmidt OB300N/LH and it is the very first left handed model I have made
for general sale. I bought it as a second from a retailer without a saddle. I
replaced the originally (missing) plastic combination saddle and pickup with a nice
bone saddle and a new piezo pickup. The finish has also chipped a bit
behind the nut but I have minimized it and it is not immediately noticeable.
Other than that, the guitar appears to be in unused condition. It is not marked
as a factory second or refurbished guitar would be. This is a beautiful guitar
with a very easy to play 32 inch scale. I have left the action high until I
find out how the buyer plans on playing it and can leave it a little high for a
heavy strummer or flat picker or much lower for someone who plans on finger
style. It will play well tuned either A – A or B – B with normal guitar strings
for finger style but will play best tuned B – B if you are a heavy strummer. I
have finished it with a sound port and gold hardware. I am selling it without a
case for $475 on eBay. As of this writing I do have a used hard shell case in
good condition available for an additional $75. Sold - Thanks Gary!
