I've been asked about the action; it's low for fingerstyle. At the 12th fret, 5/64" on the bass side, & 4/64" on the treble side. Neck is straight, & relief is perfect, no buzzing.

So many nice guitars listed right now. This one looks like a real gem. Played a few of these and think of them as ones that got away. Really glad I am nowhere this one. I think it is going to be a real prize for someone. And there are som many nice AGF recordings here in the show n tell.

Thanks, Jeff! And I might add, that finding one of these in the states, is like finding a gun rack in a Volvo. They can be found, but not very often!

Considering the rarity of these, I'm surprised to see it's still here! And in perfect condition to boot! Tone, playability, build quality, all 2nd. to none .....

Can't believe this hasn't sold. Wonderful guitar at a great price and the Brook workmanship is second to none.

Friendly bump. Brooks sound great and are by far the easiest playing acoustics I've ever played.
