The Parlour Guitar    (link to printer friendly version)

I have long admired the look and style of the Spanish Court instruments and European Salon guitars of the 1800's. My Parlour guitar bears more of a visual resemblance though to the "style 2" guitars of C.F. Martin circa 1875. I have commenced work on two limited edition "woods from the holyland" models that I refer to as the St. Ansgar guitars.
