      Denton Frenette

      Hello, I am looking for a 1964-65-66 Epiphone Classical Guitar, specifically, the Barcelona model. I had one of these back in 64 when I first was learning to play, but sadly traded back to the dealer after about a year due to a top seam separation.
      This was, I believe, the top of the line Epiphone Classical in 64, and I remember the cost was somewhere in the 300-350.00 range.
      If anyone has one they would like to sell, please contact me ASAP- I have been looking for one for the past several years at guitar shows and trade magazines.
      Thanks!

    Single small (head of a pin) mark on face, small wear on top back edge of south pickup. Original case, no handle.

        Wood – Rosewood side and back (J-60 Traditional) is worth more than the mahogany.

        Beat up, mahogany, no pick-up – $600
        Good condition, rosewood, passive pick-up – $850
        Excellent condition, rosewood, active pick-up – $1,000

        Add $200 – $300 if you buy it in a store.
