Nylon string rainsong
Does Rainsong still make a parlor sized nylon string? I've searched as best as I know how and came up empty. But I thought that I had seen them before.
Thanks for the help.

People that want a more traditional nut width would probably not bond with them but I'm really enjoying mine. They sound really good, nice size to just sit and play.

MJH;
I understand that they are still made, but as pointed out, they are not a common item in music stores. If you are patient there are occasional used ones at very reasonable prices. I don't know if RS still makes the color-burst models, but they are particularly beautiful. Benderman knows his guitars and notes the one thing that bothers some people about the RS parlor nylon; the narrow nut. I suspect the guitar was designed for steel players who want the nylon sound. I play nylon string guitars, went from the 2" nut to the 1 7/8" hybrid nut, and have found the narrow nut of the RS easily adaptable.
