Default NGD!

This has been a labor of love. I saw this 2007 Kenny Hill Prototype Crossover Parlor for sale on the forum many months ago and then the owner decided to keep it. I sent him a PM and said that one day when I could afford it I would love to own this guitar as I had been searching for one. Dennis said he would be glad to talk down the road. Well... we did... and now I have the guitar of my dreams. Thank you Dennis and thank you forum!

The painting was done by a distant uncle who only painted as a hobby. I've always been moved by it and have had it over 40 years. His name was Edward Weingartner.

Congrats!! I've been very impressed with the hand full of Kenny Hill guitars I've played. If I were to buy a nylon stringed guitar KH would be at the top of my list.

I've never had the good fortune of playing one of those but, man is that thing a looker. I'm becoming more intrigued by parlors as I see ones like this.
Congrats!
