NGD: Maingard 000
Got this a few days ago and wanted to share. It's a great condition Maingard 000 from another AGFer. GAS should be abated for a little while at least while I try to bond with this sweet little guitar.
000 12 Fret model Length: 20 9/16″ Upper bout: 10 15/16″ Waist: 9 15/16″ Lower bout: 15 3/16″ Depth at tail: 4 5/8″ Nut: 1 3/4" Saddle: 2 1/4" Top: European Spruce Rosette: Maple Back/sides: Brazilian Rosewood Binding: Ebony/Maple Bridge: Ebony Headstock veneers: Brazilian Rosewood The figure of the BRW is outstanding. And the tone is very rich and full--due to the Euro/BRW combo. It puts out a lot of sound for its size. Not as much as my slope shoulder dread, but still close enough that it's amazing. Also has a cutaway and dual bevels for comfort. The bevels are great--I wish all guitars had them! I know it didn't happen with pics, so here are some: Full guitar: Frontal shot, outdoor and indoor: Headstock in BRW: The back, with crazy figuring:

Congrats, it's a beauty! My Maingard Grand Concert is my finest guitar, with the same European Spruce and Brazilian Rosewood combo as yours.
Enjoy it! |

Quick soundclips uploaded. Apologies to your ears, hopefully it doesn't ruin people's impressions of the guitar itself!
You can also compare it against other guitars I have/had: https://soundcloud.com/user-75351759

Owned one like this a few years ago. Loved it, but my right shoulder couldn't take the body depth on it. Great piece.
