Guitar
This seller is offering a guitar that probably cost $30 brand new back in the 1950's or 60's but check it out. A Kay built Penncrest (for J.C. Penney) with a solid Spruce top and mahogany (it appears) back and sides. Now, I would not expect the neck or fretboard to be anything approaching awesome but hey - it's only $75 bucks!
The use of a bolt on neck on an acoustic is not so radical or weird - it's been done by a half dozen different guitar makers over the years, including Fender.
Note: this guitar is located in Memphis New York (near Syracuse) - not Memphis TN.
