What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

Luthier Notes: A small number of frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. The frets needed polishing, and were polished. No further work was required.

Its solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides deliver an articulate and resonant sound, perfect for all styles of play.
