Welcome to my Spring Cleaning/Guitar Dreams 2015 Online Garage Sale!
I am on a mission to to sell enough stuff online to buy my daughter her very own acoustic guitar. She’s been working hard at piano lessons (and, more importantly, learning to read music!). But she’d rather be learning to play guitar, if you asked her. I made her a deal… if she learned piano well enough to play a particular set of songs, I’d buy her a nice acoustic guitar and teach her how to play it.
She’s made MUCH FASTER progress than I expected. So, please offer high and offer often. You’re helping me make a little girl’s dream come true.
And I hope you have a great summer!
Joe
*****This is a vintage radio known as a TrueTone D2237B. This radio does not work, at least as far as I can tell, but it\'s an old tube radio so you can probably get it working with some parts and a little know-how (or YouTube, I guess). I picked it up while helping a buddy clear out a defunct internet radio station in town. Can you believe they were just throwing this away?!
Your winning offer and some shipping gets you this classic piece of Americana! Good luck!
