Well AGF this one I'm not quite sure I can pull the trigger selling. There are no words to describe how beautiful this guitar is in person. Understated elegance. Amazing fingerstyle guitar from one of the best custom builders today. Excels in DADGAD tuning. The mahogany came from an old pub being demo'd in the UK and the cedar from an old foot bridge in the Northwestern US. Honestly, I've never seen mahogany quite like this. One of the loveliest tones you will ever hear. Tony McManus played a Kelday 000 12 fret for quite some time. Current build price for this guitar is just over $6,000 USD.
Worried about the wider nut? Don't be. The slim neck profile on this makes it comfortable. I typically play 1-3/4" nut widths and can play this one with no issues.
Condition: Outside of a faint scratch on the back (pictured) this one is nearly mint.
NOTE: The light/dark areas on the guitar are the reflection from a light hardwood floor and an area rug. I can assure you the top and back are not two-tone.
