1900 Washburn Vintage Parlor Acoustic Guitar:
$645.00
this is a Model 223. the lower bout is a little over 13inches.
the top is adirondack spruce and the sides and back are
Brazilian rosewood with a gorgeous figure. the fingerboard
and bridge are ebony. the action is 4 32nds at the 12th fret
and it plays easily. there is a slight relief to the neckbut nothing
to hurt anything. the top and sides appear crack-free. thereare
several cracks in the back that are solid. the fingerboardalso
has a crack at the upper end. finally, there is binding missing
on the upper side of the treble bout. it\'s red and naturalwood with
an outer celluloid. it can easily be duplicated with naturalmaple
veneer and a red magic marker. i just never got around toit.
it needs the crack filled in on the fingerboard, the bindingrepair and
if you refinned the back, you could make the cracks mostlydisappear.
there may also be some lesser repairs needed...you can bethe judge.
because of these needed repairs, i\'m selling AS IS...aproject.
however, it plays nice as is. the needed repairs arebasically just cosmetic.
so, live with it as is, or would make a nice project foranyone with
basic luthier skills. my price reflects the need for theserepairs. look
at the pics carefully. they show what is needed. pleaseunderstand, this
cool old relic is 120 years old. please don\'t haveunrealistic expectations.
any questions, ask before offerding. no case, but will bedouble-boxed.
Continental US only. thanks.
