i got a takamine eg-240 at the local flea market

it was for $130 with a hardshell case it needs a new pickup but acoustic is fine for now

it needs a to be cleaned up a bit and ill be taking it in for a setup but i think it will work till i learn how to play it.

Enjoy. As a matter of fact, I own far more guitars than basses.

Same here. Every bassist should be able to play some guitar.

Congrats! I actually learned a lot of stuff from doing even the most rudimentary stuff on guitar that I was able to apply to bass. Great for solo pieces and melodies.

If I may suggest something, look at some videos of flamenco artists. Their style is adaptable to bass, and has a unique sound.

Same here, I just ordered a Gretsch guitar that I've been GASing for last week.

Congrats on the new guitar.

I do as well. Enjoy, and learn all chords in as many positions as you can.

Nice! I have two electrics and one acoustic. That looks like a killer deal, congrats!
