Spruce with Indian Rosewood back and sides.

I bought this from Rick Sayage last year and really wish I could keep it. I planned on it being a forever guitar (as it deserves to be). I have another Nowak guitar in Cedar and Brazilian rosewood. I nearly chose to keep this one instead. Financial reasons force the sale.

This magnificent, spruce guitar is well played, showing a decent amount of small scratches marks and dings. Incredibly light weight (Negra? I’m not sure. Sayage didn’t sell it to me as such). No major damage or repairs. There is a small hairline crack on the side (EIRW) that is stable. Please see the pictures (note: I did include some or Rick’s pictures of the instrument… he is much a better photographer than me)!
