Carothers Guitar Guitars made by John Carothers. These are the best guitars, with a faster attack than any other guitar and they perfectly capture nuances. I was surprised by the sound, both acoustic and amplified, which was unlike anything I've experienced before. I think you'll understand what I mean if you play one. I've kept it in good condition, but I'm selling it because I don't have a chance to play guitar anymore! I personally think it's in very good condition with no noticeable scratches. Please consider it! Please purchase only if you understand that this is a used item.
