Signature Nightingale #1
 
 

I am happy to be able to offer this pre-owned Signature Series Nightingale for immediate purchase.

This instrument, in addition to being a lovely Brazilian/Swiss Spruce Nightingale, is the very first Signature Series Nightingale I ever built and will therefore be considered collectible by many of you. It is Signature Series #21 overall (the first 20 signatures were all Mission Grand Concerts, as they were the only model I built for many years).

The Brazilian is some of the finest straight-grained, quarter-sawn Brazilian rosewood I have ever had the privilege of building with. It has the classic grain structure and brick-red color that is highly prized among collectors.

This instrument is one of the first guitars on which I used the rare and lovely Swiss spruce for the soundboard.

It’s condition is pristine and I will transfer the original warranty to the new owner.

I am looking forward to hearing from you if you are interested in owning this guitar.

A deluxe Calton flight case is included.
