    Bought another guitar. Might finally try to learn. Trying to find out something about it.

    Only thing written on the guitar is Austin Bazaar.

  2. Is it valuable? No.

    Is it junk? If it makes pleasing guitar sounds when properly played, it’s not junk.

    I liked it for how the strings attach. I'd never seen a setup like that.

    Many acoustic guitars have tuning pegs like that. Get an electronic tuner (about $20) if it stays in tune, it's a good guitar.

    On my laptop it appears you're nut is missing. Seriously.

    Edit: changed monitor angle and "void" became "bone nut". My bad

    Although an entry-level guitar makes the price of admission to the process of learning to play affordable it also tends to make the process more difficult. A quality instrument is easier to play than a crappy one. This is true whether you're Tommy Emmanuel or someone learning your first chord.

    That type of headstock is typically for nylon strings.

    Honestly, it's a pos. But give it a whirl. You could find a Sigma (Martin ish) in decent shape for little money that would suit your needs.
