FS: Brook Taw Custom Deep body OM

rcmaccallum · #1 04-11-2013, 11:29 AM

Sold - Am listing this Brook Taw that I bought here on the AGF from Stamper. Its a beautiful guitar with a sweet fingerstyle voice. Although it handles strumming I would have to say fingerstyle is where it really shines. As I spend half my time strumming I am going to stick with my Froggy K which is a bit more versatile on the strumming end of things.

This Taw Custom is EIR / cedar and basically is a short-scale (24.75"), deep-bodied OM. It has a depth of 4 11/16" at the bottom of the lower bout. The nut is 44mm which is slightly north of 1.73 inches. String spacing at the bridge is 2 1/8". Tuners are Gotohs.

The guitar is still in as-new condition. There is a pinhead-sized dimple in the middle of the back that was present when it was purchased, but that's the only imperfection that I can find. The new (shop) price on this model is $3400. I'll take Sold (reduced from$2650), PP'd and shipped in the original Hiscox case.

Here are some links to the guitar being played by it original owner

I am heading down to the NH/MA area in a couple weeks and will be visiting the Music Emporium. I have dropped the price to see if I can move this Brook before I go. With a strict one out/one in policy I would need to move this Brook to be able to bring home something. ( Not that I need to bring home something but I'm thinking GAS could strike while browsing the emporiums impressive inventory )

Would also be willing to trade (with cash as required) for a Bourgeois Slope D, Froggy Bottom SJ, H12 or M.
