This extraodinary and fairly enormous guitar is not quite like any we have seen before; beautifully made of very fine materials it was obviously a custom-ordered piece.
 
Overall length is 40 1/8 in. (101.9 cm.), 18 in. (45.7 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 5 3/8 in. (13.7 cm.) in depth at side, taken at the end block. Scale length is 25 1/2 in. (648 mm.). Width of nut is 1 7/8 in. (48 mm.). Quite a few old repaired cracks front and back, very solidly closed up but noticeable in spots. Professionally converted to X bracing some years ago; bridge appears to be a very finely made repro. Excellent player with a very unique sound Generally Excellent Condition.
