Welcome to the auction of my Alhambra Crossover CS3 CW E5
(Click on pics to see bigger versions)

This was bought new about 10 months ago, but due to a very busy schedule, I have played it only a handful of times. It is as good as new. It retailed at £1400, but after 2 hours of haggling, I got the shop down to £1000 in cash. Incidentally, in their haste to make the sale, they didn't put a date on the receipt, so the guitar's guarantee starts when the buyer wants it to :-)

It sounds simply fantastic, both acoustically and also when using it's top of the line Fishman Prefix premium blend preamp which features mic / pickup blending, tone controls, phase reverse switch and a built in tuner

It is rated as number 20 of Music Radar's top 50 guitars to play before you die - http://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/50-guitars-to-play-before-you-die-part-1-198927/6

I am starting bidding on this guitar at £800, as it's pretty much unused. I would prefer cash and will only accept collection of this in person due to it's fragile nature.

I know it will bring the auction winner years of joy. Any questions. Feel free to ask.

Happy bidding.
