Thumbs up TRADED!! 2014 Northwood 00 12 Fret Short Scale DB - Now $1,800

This is simply an outstanding and natural sounding 00. Not boxy like many 00 bodies can be. Surprisingly loud as well flat picked. Although it cannot be driven too hard. Obviously this is primarily a finger style instrument.

The workmanship by John McQuarrie is second to none. I can find absolutely no flaws. She is in near mint 9.5/10 condition with little fret wear. No end pin. Comes with original HS case. Kept in humidity controlled environment and non smoking household. You can still smell the Spanish cedar kerfing.

Northwood 00 75 custom:
12 frets to body
Short scale, (24.9)
Deep body, 4-7/8" @ tailblock
1.75" at the nut, 2.25" at the saddle
EIR gloss back and sides
Engelmann gloss top
One piece satin mahogany neck
Full Koa binding on the body, neck and heel wedge
Koa headstock overlay
Ebony fret board with microdot inlay
Ebony pyramid bridge
Grover Stay Tight tuners
Abalone rosette
Polished bone nut and saddle
Original clear pick guard

Lowest price this guitar will be is $1,800 + shipping + PayPal
A steal for a guitar twice this new, and it nearly is.

Follow this link to a couple of sound clips from a similar Northwood from Paramount. The tone is a dead ringer to what I'm selling.

Default Testimonial

The finest small body I ever played was a Northwood 00. Exceptional guitar.

Thank you Rick and yes it is. However, I fell in love with the Breedlove 000/AR slot head I just got. Otherwise I would be keeping this one.

Northwood cheering section over here. I own a cocobolo 000 and am only tempted to find another Northwood, never to give mine up. GLWS!

Same here! I think John McQuarrie is one of the best builders out there. That being said, I just got a Breedlove 000/AR built by Jayson Bowerman that has blown me away. Hence, the Northwood 00 is now for sale although I'd love to hang on to it.

Keep in mind this would be near $4K commissioned new. It's about as close to new as you can get. Even has that new guitar smell.

Default Northwood

John is putting the finishing touches on my Northwood D and it will be delivered in a few weeks.

Your 00 deep body 12 fret is one of the three insane prices for guitars currently on the AGF. Northwood are high end instruments and John McQuarrie is a super builder to work with.

Someone should grab this deal before you come to your senses and keep it.

Preaching to the Northwood choir Daniel! I have decided to commission a build with all the things I love about northwood, Webber, Tim Reede, breedlove, etc. So this one must go to raise funds. I'll still have my Northwood R80 MJ. That one won't be going anywhere. This one though is less than half of a new build and it more or less is one.
