Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
Based on one of Mr. Hill's own guitars (a very special old Panormo built around 1838), this "London" model was built in Kenny Hill's workshop in Mexico sometime between 1996 and 2002 and is one of possibly fewer than 20 ever produced!

From Other (Miscellanous Used/Vintage/Consign)
Kenny Hill is one of the most accomplished, experienced and versatile classical guitar makers in the world today. He is recognized as a fine maker, player, teacher and innovator. He has worked as an individual luthier, in small workshops as well as in large factory settings, to bring fine guitars to thousands of players of all levels around the world.
Kenny Hill began building guitars in the mid 1970's, first in Santa Barbara, CA, then later in the Santa Cruz area. In 1978 he was awarded one of the first California Arts Council grants to an individual artist for his work as a guitar builder and guitarist. During that time he was instructor of guitar on the faculty at University of California, Santa Cruz, where he taught for 3 years.
