A few years ago I bought one in a penrith junk shop, it was a great thing but I wound up selling it, now looking for another one, now that I'm starting to play and gig again, It will be getting heavy strings, tuned low and fitted with a magnetic pickup, there's something about that sound I could use right now, so I'm not looking for a perfect one, more knackered the better really, helps with the pocket, and as usual if it needs work, that's fine, anything around?
Should note too, I'm after something with a tailpiece

I trawled every bloody guitar shop in the southern states to find one a few years back and couldn’t find one worth buying. I was in a big guitar shop outside pigeon forge in Tennessee and they had about 30 as wall decorations. When I asked them if they had any playable ones for sale they looked at me like I’d farted.

I’ve got a clean one with original case that’s spare. It really could do with some work to sort the bridge rattle. Might be too nice though?

Etsy has some listed in Croswell, MI. Ben's vintage musical instruments.
personally i like the warmer bass tones out of the entirely mahogany H165.
if i were to say a lot of people don't agree with my musical tastes, it would be an understatement...
