  • Scale Length: 25"
  • Nut Width: 1 15/16"
  • Weight: 5lbs
  • Finish Color: Natural
  • Top Wood: Spruce
  • Side Wood: Rosewood
  • Back Wood: Rosewood

  • Features: 20 Frets, Diamond Inlays, Classical Tuning Machines (6x6)
  • Condition: This is one great 12-string! The top looks good, but there are some blemishes to note: there is a noticeable ding on the bass side just above the soundhole, and there are other smaller dings all around it as well; there is a grouping of light dings and scratches on the treble side's lower bout; there is play marks all along the pickguard and treble side upper bout; there are also lighter blemishes strewn all over the top, with none of these standing out in isolation. The sides show scratches and scrapes all throughout, and the treble side shows the most blemishes, but nothing stands out in isolation as none of them appear to be signs of abuse, but because they are prevalent throughout I encourage you to check out the photos. The back has some scratches and lighter blemishes strewn about, particularly grouped around the middle. There is also some light dings on the treble side's upper bout just near the edge. This is another area of the guitar that I would encourage you to look at the photos as there are light blemishes pretty much everywhere. The neck is straight and smooth; there is a light blemish just next to the 6th fret on the bass side, and there is some light finish blemishes along the heel of the neck (see photos). The fretboard is clean and the frets are polished; the frets themselves show light play marks all throughout, and the first couple frets show some very light dips, but there is still plenty life left in these frets! The headstock looks great, but there is some light chips along the inside edges and outside edges around the tuning machines on both front and back sides. The front and back sides also show some very light finish level blemishes when you turn the headstock around in the right lighting, but otherwise they are very difficult to notice! The sides look good, but there is a blemish on the bass side in the binding as well as some light dings on the very top corners, though they are a far cry from the usual dings and chips you'd find! This is a wonderful guitar, but because it is a preowned instrument there may be a blemish I failed to notice, so please check out photos! Everything which is included is pictured and ready to be professionally packed and shipped.
