Sound Pure's Take
This parlor guitar projects perfectly and responds well to both standard and open tunings. The 1 13/16th" nut width is ideal for finger pickers who prefer a little more room for their right hand. The mahogany on the back and sides has 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 parlor instrument, 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.
