Cleaning the Shop Sale.

Angelina 12 String- I made this guitar earlier this year to bring to summerfestivals. The top is Sitka Spruce, the back and sides are paduk. The neck is mahogany and the fingerboard and bridge are Madagascar rosewood. The pickguard is inlaid into the top. French polished varnish finish, Golden Age tuning machines. The lower bout measures 14 5/8″ with a 26 1/2″ scale. It is 2″ at the nut and the action is currently set to 1/8″ on the bass and 3/32″ on the treble. It is lightly built and was intended for lighter gauge strings (.011″-.060″), tuned to C#. With my standard set (.013″-.066″), I’d tune it to A. It has a great sound. SOLD
