First two parlor guitars strung up & ready to play!

The first two parlor (AKA single-oh) guitars are strung up & ready to play! The Sitka spruce/Honduras mahogany one has a warm, round sound with a huge amount of presence for a small-bodied instrument. The Anderson Valley (California) redwood/Honduras rosewood one has big bass, punchy treble, and a massive voice. These beauties haven’t been strung up for long and already are developing complex, mature voices.

The spruce/mahogany guitar is for sale! $3,500 – includes case but not CA sales tax or shipping. Drop by the shop/showroom to try these beauties out, or contact David.

Notes:

  • The 24.75″ string scale is lively and responsive, and the notes fly off the fingerboard all the way up to the 20th fret
  • Nut width 1-3/4″
  • Nitro-cellulose lacquer gloss finish on the body/peghead, polyurethane matte finish (smooth & fast!) on the neck
  • The body measures a sleek 13″ across at the lower bout yet a full 4″ body depth at the butt: these instruments pack a lot of volume!
  • Waverly tuners
  • Sitka spruce top, Honduras mahogany back & sides, rosewood binding/bridge/peghead overlay, ebony fingerboard, hand-cut abalone Dart logo, hand-cut bone nut & saddle
  • Anderson Valley (home of Dart Instruments!) old growth redwood top (from an old deep end sheep barn!), Honduras rosewood back & sides, boxwood binding, ebony fingerboard/bridge/overlay, hand-cut Dart logo, vine, & diamond fingerboard inlay
