Parlor guitar build.

Post by Taffy Evans » Sun Nov 24, 2024 9:25 am

Hi, I haven't posted a build in a while, so I thought I would post this Parlor guitar. It's New Guinee Rosewood with a cedar top. It was not a commission, as I am trying to steer away from them so as to have more freedom to do what I want when I want.
I was very happy with the sound, for a small guitar it had a nice balanced bass end.
It sold quickly too, so I was happy with that.
thanks for looking.

It's named Wyndham, after an old gold mine in my area.

Lovely guitar Taffy.
Like Kiwigeo I also like the Parlor size guitar.
The the right guitar to reach for to play on the couch.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers

Nice build Taff!

Did you use colortone for the burst? Hand rubbed? Looks amazing!
