Everyone is amazed by the sound when they hear it. I was sorry to hear when they went out of business, but there new web site is up and running. Not quite the variety they had before, but give them time. I have had my Cargo for just over a year in nice humid Houston and I love it. Everyone is amazed by the sound when they hear it.

Got my hands on a new CARGO (wine red finish) last year after waiting for something like 9 months for Elderly Instruments to deliver it (not their fault, CA was back-ordered). Well worth the wait! Such a killer sounding, fun to play little guitar, it has become my main "go-to" guitar as I can leave it lying around the house without worrying about the Kauai humidity tweaking it. I have also taken it on kayak trips on the Na Pali coast of our island, camped with it, left it in the back seat of my truck with the windows up, etc. You get the idea...but the best thing is that it is a REALLY good guitar with nice tone, great action, and amazing volume for its size. I hope Peavey continues making these UNREAL instruments. MAHALO! Aloha!

They are some great guitars and eBay is about the only place I see them now days. Why you avoid eBay? I find great deals all the time on things. Many times you will find a company using eBay to auction off something just to drum up business and get added exposure. I find some good deals. My experience has been about 99% positive but I only deal with people who have good seller rating with lots of positive. Thanks Dan, it is a shame.

I was in the store to look at lightweight sound systems, when I spotted this little dude sitting on a stand on a display case. I played it and WHAM, the first thing I noticed was the base response!!! I have an Adamas II and this thing had a deeper sound than that. I went back the next day to grab it and it was sold, gone! It was right at the time the factory just evaporated and I was amazed that they went under, that guitar had a BIG future! I guess Blackbird makes something comparable, but ascetically they look like a log with strings. I see them every now on then on Ebay, but I NEVER buy things on Ebay! Somebody should buy the old factory and get them back in production..... Dan I first encountered the CA Cargo, at a Sam Ash.

We do however offer some links when applicable as to where to purchase said guitar. As for this particular guitar, the manufactuer closed the doors and they are becoming hard to come by. Occasiaonly we spot one on eBay and post it here but otherwise I have not seen them around lately. Michael Lydon, we do not sell guitars but offer guitar reviews.

So CA's are not quite the same as woodys but with a Zoom AU acoustic pedal for $99 they sound amazing. I like the High Gloss ones. No more worries about playing in extreme conditions. These are the most comfortable guitars I have played. And trust me I've been through a few. Sad such a good company closed shop. Sold my Martins.
