Hello all. It's my 40th coming up, so I'm in the market for a lovely smaller bodied guitar. Something I'll keep in the house, 12 fret parlour, 0 or 00 or similar would be great. Doesn't have to have pickup. 

Anything out there?

    Hi @4114Effects, I have a near-mint Larrivee P-02E (12 frets parlour) and I’m toying around with the idea of selling it. Sounds and plays fantastically. But I have lust for another guitar (damn GAS) and cannot afford it out-right, so the Larrivee would help fund it. If you’d like details, let me know. If not, good luck with your guitar hunting!

    Bump. Had a few offers but still time to add to the shortlist. I could put a little more towards the right guitar. Larrivee parlours seem to be ideal. Open to offers though.

    Since acquiring a Martin HD28 and using electrics more, my DJW Guitars Firefly hasn't  been getting the play it deserves so I'm thinking of parting with it.
    Parlour sized - 24.9" scale length with a cutaway. Luthier handmade guitar, Cedar top, ebony fingerboard. Hiscox case.
    Let me know if you're interested.

    May I very gently suggest the Eastman E10p (or E20p if you prefer rosewood)? I bought one about 6 weeks ago and find it very special (and I own both Collings and Preston Thompson guitars). A tiny gem, if you ask me.

    You need an idea of what you are going to do, but it should be a vague idea.

    I have a superb, fully handmade White Reesling which is a parlour / O sized guitar with 13 frets.

    I used to sell guitars for TAMCO in Brighton and sold this guitar new to one of our customers. He subsequently fell ill and had to give up playing. I bought it from him as I loved it.

    It was £4,795 to him then I bought it from him for £2,500.

    I'm asking £1,499 which is 66% off it's new price as it will need a new nut at some point - though it plays great as it is. I've been unable to get to a luthier thanks to lockdown. The original owner appears to have changed it from a bone nut to a TUSQ nut and it's an untidy job.

    I have played it daily so there is light evidence of playing but nothing that you'll see unless you 'fine comb' it.

    Image links at the end.......

    Here's the full spec:

    Top - Adirondack Spruce
    Back & sides - Rosewood
    Neck - Mahogany

    Action fret 12 low E - 2.6mm
    Action fret 1 high E - 0.5mm
    Action fret 12 high E - 2.5mm
    Lower bout width - 13.5"
    Upper bout width - 10.24"
    Body depth at base -3.35"

    I have one of these which just sits in its case forlornly. Plus you'd have a load of change...
