Robert Desmond – Cedar and Honduran Rosewood – 2000

Description

2000, USA. Solid cedar soundboard with 7 fan braces, figured Honduran rosewood back and sides, 650 mm scale, 52 mm nut width, 20th fret, oil varnish finish hand-rubbed to a high gloss.  This guitar is a gorgeous tone machine.  Rich, lush, warm. Adjectives scarcely describe the beauty of the sound of this instrument.  Plus superior projection; a true concert guitar.  Traditionally built with musicality in mind, this instrument surpasses many that employ the latest innovative construction techniques.  Desmond’s workmanship is world class.  This single-owner guitar was well cared for and remains in mint condition save for a single string burn behind the second string.
