Bluegrass Guitar on a Budget - All solid Revival RG-27 Dread
$$$$$OLD - thanx!
.....all the work has already been done on it - ready for you to play. I bought this guitar and prepared it for a new player, but they went a different direction..... Had I known I would have gotten one with a wider neck and kept it myself! 1-11/16 is great for flatpicking but cramps my monkey-mitts when I try fingerstyle on it. This one surprised me - after a month on my Tonerite, a good setup with new bone saddle, the addition of a Martin tortoise-colored pickguard and a JJB Prestige #330 piezo pickup, this is a really great guitar. It has gone to a few bluegrass jams with me and stays right up with the D-18's! Wish when I was a teen (too many years ago to count) that I'd had one like this to start on. Currently strung with Martin Bluegrass 80/20's. Needs nothing but a case - only a few very light impressions from handling on the finish and no cracks, warps or other nasty stuff. If you want me to purchase a hard or soft case to ship it in we can add that to the tab. Otherwise I will double box and pad the guitar thoroughly for shipment to your CONUS address. Here is the 'canned' description: Lots of photos here: http://s1233.photobucket.com/user/rw...0RG-27%20Dread Here are a few select ones: Hit me with any questions - this is one too good for around the campfires, but inexpensive enough you can't resist!

I should mention that I once owned a nice Larrivee D-05 dread which now belongs to my son-in-law. This Revival compares very well to the fit and finish of the Larrivee - both have curly maple solid wood bindings and a great gloss finish.
The Revival is braced more like a Martin though, so it's tone is deeper. If you use a dread in the 1.68" nut size, you can't go wrong with this one as a backup - just sayin!

Price lowered again.....free sock included for the headstock.....
Seriously, the Engleman top is what makes this a sweet player. That option is not available on new Revivals....they now come with Sitka.
