PARLOUR GUITAR FOR SALE

I am offering for sale this recently completed (July 2010) steel-strung parlour guitar; its design inspired by 19th century European instruments. My aim was to create an instrument that would not look out of place alongside the work of past masters such as Panormo and Lacote.

SPECIFICATION

Western Red Cedar soundboard with Claro Walnut back and sides.

Brazilian mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard (and side dots).

Abalone and rope rosette with rope purfling and maple bindings.

Ebony bridge with bone saddle and nut, hand-turned high quality ivoroid bridge pins and matching endpin.

Traditional French polish finish.

625mm scale length.

Gold Grover tuners 18:1 ratio.

The design and construction of this beautiful little instrument has been fully documented in a series of YouTube videos.

This guitar is being offered at the price of 2000 GBP including hard case. For an extra charge, shipping can be arranged.

If you'd like any further information, please give me a call on +44 (0)1945 430725 or e-mail info@navaguitars.co.uk. Visitors are welcome, by appointment only, at my workshop on the Cambridgeshire-Norfolk boarders.
