This guitar is in pristine condition, effectively new, was delivered in January 2018. I am selling all of my guitars because of hand trouble.

Here are the specs:

Model: Retreux Parlor
Back and Sides Figured Palo Escrito
Soundboard: Colorado Blue Spruce
Scale: 24.5”
Nut: 1 ¾” bone nut
Saddle: 2 ¼ bone saddle
Headstock: Ebony headstock with Koa Purfling.

This guitar is extremely resonant and has great clarity. I was surprised at its overall brilliance. It’s a wonderful instrument.

That's a heck of a price for a great guitar. I've played many, many of his Retreux parlors. They are knock out guitars and always a big hit at guitar shows.

Default Baranik Retro Parlor

I had the opportunity to play this Baranik Retro Parlor. I loved the figuring of the Palo Escrito and combined with Colorado Blue Spruce it surely sounded sweet.

If I hadn't recently received my commissioned Michaud O-R, also a parlor sized instrument, I would have been mighty tempted by this guitar which is in mint condition.

I have purchased guitars from halfmoon in the past and recommend him as a seller that you can deal with in complete confidence. Someone will be quite happy with this one!
