Members Steadfastly Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 I picked up a Suzuki Model 9 guitar today ($20.00 with case). For $20.00 I figured I couldn't go wrong. Is anyone familiar with this guitar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Brokepick Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 If the strings go twang when I hit them, I'd give $20 for it, and I don't even know what it looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry, how did I know you would be one of the first ones answering. You're amazing! I'll try and get some pics for you. By the way I would call it a parlor size guitar and it has steel strings.

I agree. I bought it just from the pictures on the web. Itj's only got one scratch on it for pete's sake! I'm going to use it for my beating around guitar that I bring to work.

Most I see don`t have a date, why some do and others don`t, I`m not sure, but the ones like this one here are laminates, won`t say they all are, haven`t seen em all yet...price is ballpark too.
