After buying some other musical equipment, I find I have no more room in the studio for other musical equipment, and must sell something.

For sale: Johnson Resonator Guitar model JM-998. nickle-plated, bell-brass body. Honduras mahogany neck, matte finish. Select rosewood fretboard with mother-of-pearl dots. Pick up mounted on resonator plate.

This is a great guitar with the classic resonator sound. This is a comtemporary guitar modeled after the National resonator used by most all the old Hawaiian steel players such as Sol Ho'opi'i and others.

In addition, I had a pickup installed on the resonator plate with the jack mounted below the strap button (see photo). I forget what make pickup it was but it was the best for that application.

The body is without scratches except for some strum marks made by finger picks by the bridge.

Hard shell case in shakey condition; structurally sound, needs new handle ($7.50).

This is not on ebay. I thought I'd offer it to my fellow TC'rs first

It lists for $895 and the pickup and installation of such was $150.

I'll let it go for $400 because I like you (however you are).

Jack for guitar cord.

Please buy this guitar from Bong, so he doesn't have to resort to anything desparate.

As an added bonus! I promise never to post anything annoying about the buyer.
