Guitars for Sale

\



I recently finished some guitars for my inventory.  They are all completely handmade, with dovetail neck joints, dual action adjustable truss rods, built with hide glue and finished with varnish.  They are built in the spirit of the guitars of the 1920s and 30's, sound like old ones,comparable in feel and weight.  The truss rod,  radiused fingerboard, modern frets, compensated saddles etc, combine to make them more player friendly than the old ones.  They are all great guitars at  great prices.  Hard shell cases are included.




X braced Annunziata

#1.) X-braced Cherry Annunziata- X braced Spruce top with Cherry back and sides, poplar neck and rosewood fingerboard and bridge.  The X bracing gives it a smoother tone which a friend has described as "elegant".  The neck is 1 13/16" at the nut with a modified V profile, similar in sound and feel to a 30's Martin.  Great guitar for fingerpicking. $2750
