Charis Presentation SJ Guitar for sale- The Holy Grail
This is truly one of the holy grails of Charis Guitars. It offers Master grade Brazilian Rosewood, Master Swiss Spruce top, spectacular inlays and a Florentine cutaway. Bill Wise said that to replace it would cost more than twenty thousand dollars. BTW, Bill is alive and well despite my initial report that he was no longer w/ us. (my apologies Bill Thanks for the correction Todd Hunt. Fortunately, I was speaking ignorantly... not prophetically! More specs are outlined in the pictures. Excellent condition with no issues and a playability and tone matched only by few premier guitars. Offering it at a quick sale price of $7,500 shipped Conus. Please respond to [email protected] as my box fills quickly and thanks for your consideration.

My old friend
This beauty spent around 8 years with me. Sold it due to down sizing but it was much loved and carefully played in between stored in my guitar cabinet. It came to me from a very good home. The materials are superb, there are some very minor imperfections but hardly noticeable at all the tone is wonderful…if you want an Olson in Brazilian this is what you can have as a less e pensive but equally fantastic instrument. Glow the sale

Bill Wise is one of the top, and most respected, builders anywhere and now that he is only building 4-5 guitars a year, this may be the only way to pick one up. He will soon fully retire. Grab it while you can and be thrilled that you did so by saving many, many thousands of dollars. Truly an heirloom guitar. Anyone looking for a world-class, stunning guitar should immediately sell 2 Taylors or 3-4 Yamahas or anything they need to purchase this guitar. It is no exaggeration above that this is a $20-$25,000 guitar offered at peanut price. I already have 2 Charis, Applegate and Olson SJs or this would be headed my way.
