I'm looking to sell/trade my 2011 Loar LH-309-VS archtop guitar in great condition. Trade wise, I'm hoping for a non-cutaway dread sized acoustic with a narrower nut. My other guitar is an Epiphone Casino and I'm finding the contrast of the necks a bit much, as the Loar is wide (45mm) and chunky. Ideally I'd like to swap it for an acoustic with a 43mm ish nut and string spacing around 34mm.
Regarding the Loar; the stock P90 pickup has been replaced with a Kent Armstrong Vintage Icon Alnico II one, with the pots replaced with CTS ones, and a Switchcraft jack used. The neck angle on this one is perfect, and the action is currently 2mm at the 12th fret, with scope to go lower if required. A wonderful sounding guitar, both unplugged and through an amp, that plays really well.
The guitar is in Beccles, Suffolk.
Please get in touch if you're interested in a trade/part-exchange or straight sale at £550, and I can send more pictures etc. Cheers.
