Used B&G Caletta Private Build (Sitka Spruce/Pau Ferro)
Tons of sound from a small instrument. You can flatpick it, you can fingerpick it and it has wonderful response to both. Plenty of volume and sustain... less thumpy and more resonant than your standard small bodied guitar.
Full specs listed below.
This guitar comes with original case, all paperwork, and a pickguard if you so choose to use it.
Some items of note (Please read all):
***full disclosure here, I don't want any surprises***
1.) Pick scratches below soundhole on high e side (noted in pic 15)
2.) Witness mark on treble side bridge corner. This is not a structural issue, purely cosmetic, but worthy of note. (Pic 16)
3.) Very small ding in lower bout of top (hard to see unless at the correct angle with light) (Pic 17)
4.) Binding seem lacquer check near neck heel. This is common but worthy of note. (Pic 18)
5.) Small ding in lower bout on end wedge (Pic 19)
6.) Small ding in binding (Pic 20)
None of the above mentioned items affect the performance or structural integrity of this instrument. It plays wonderfully and sounds great.
