Sound Pure's Take
This parlor guitar projects perfectly and responds well to both standard and open tunings. The mahogany on the back and sides have a lustrous red hue that is only surpassed by its sonic qualities. This is a unique and beautiful instrument that not many brands can compete with in terms of amazing pricing and high-quality craftsmanship and materials.
From Eastman Guitars
Although small by modern standards, this was the normal sized instrument in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Guitars were considered a parlorinstrument, that is, to be played in small rooms for small groups of people. Don’t let their diminutive size fool you though. With the extra mass of a pyramid bridge
moved to the widest point on the lower bout, this slotted headstock 12 fret guitar can fill more than a parlor with its huge sound.
