SOLD Pending payment CHARIS SJ.....Excellent condition
With much regret I have to sell my Charis SJ, a truly awesome instrument in many ways. This is #408 by Bill Wise and its the Premier version versus the Performance version. The Premier is a higher caliber build. I have a very interesting YouTube of the build process available if you would like to see it. I also have the build on a thumb drive and its included in the sale.
This Charis has a perfect Cedar top, clearly top end, and EIR back and sides, also masterclass wood as is the top. See photos of the grain on this top. The tone is best described as rich, deep, clear and articulate. Truly a great guitar for hearing each string with amazing sustain. Its quite capable of staying with you thru intense strumming never losing its composure, clarity or become muddy. Its quite the crazy extraordinary guitar while being flatpicked or fingerstyle and responds well to a light touch or much more aggressive play. As a result there are three pin size marks, one on the back binding, one just below the saddle and one on the upper bout next to the neck. Only one shows up in photos. Specs are below as are photos. This is in excellent condition and comes with a Mainstage brown HSC with pearl plush interior. The case is also in excellent condition. Similar to a Hiscox, very solid fiberglass outer with extreme plush cushioning and support inside. Watertight. Specs....Your SJ dimensions are as follows: Scale Length - 25.6" (14 frets to body). Fingerboard Radius - 16" String Spacing at saddle - 2.25" Nut widths - 1.75" Lower Bout Width - 15.25" Upper Bout Width - 11.375" Waist Width - 9.375" Overall Body Length - 19.5" Depth - 4.375 at end block & 3.875 at the heel Electronics-LR Baggs Lyric on board with volume and tone wheels at soundhole. Woods-Masterclass Cedar face...see photos Masterclass EIR back and sides Lacewood Soundport Lacewood Arm Bevel Lacewood binding Neck is five pieces of mahogany, EIR and maple Heel cap is ebony Fingerboard is ebony The guitar has a sharp cutaway There is a removable clear pickguard Please check out Charis Guitars on line and discover the mastery of Bill Wise. His guitars are often compared to Olsons and other very high end builds by master luthiers. $3800.00 Shipped and Insured Conus [/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG] NOTE: Any marks, smudges, discoloration etc is due to the amateur status of this photographer. I apologize. The guitar deserves better photos. More photos on request. Please PM with any questions or requests. Thanks.

I have some solid interest but no good offers yet. Some lucky person will get a masterpiece of a guitar, a true investment. This baby if built today would cost $7500 according to Bill Wise at Charis Guitars. Custom built for me and taken meticulous care of since birth.
