2018 Farida OT-22 00-Size Guitar

Overview: Since Elderly stopped selling the Farida line, they've become harder to find and fairly desirable. This OT-22 looks, sounds, and feels a lot like a '50s LG-2 but this version of it ("W") has a wider, 1 3/4" nut width that's more common on the '40s version of the instruments. We've had a few of these through the shop, now, and each time I've been impressed with how close they get to "the real thing."

Ironically, the previous owner of this guitar just traded it into me (with a variety of other instruments) to get the real thing, so it's here for resale. I'd previously adjusted it a bit for him some time ago and, thankfully, it arrived back playing just as it left -- so it's nice to know it's a stable guitar.

Repairs included: I just gave it a quick setup. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.

Condition notes: There's a little light scratching here and there throughout but mostly it's clean. There's a little finish chipping in front of the bridge which suggests that the bridge was reglued at some point. The frets have only the tiniest wear and so a level/dress job was not needed.

It comes with: Sorry, no case.
