Default *SOLD* RainSong P12S

Hello -
This guitar is from my personal collection and was purchased to use in the harsh Winters of Vermont where it's hard to keep a wooden instrument hydrated properly. It is a wonderful sounding guitar that is impervious to weather, has a great set of onboard electronics and is exceptionally comfortable to play. I normally say when I sell my guitars that they have been kept in a humidity-controlled and smoke free environment, and it has been, but all that really doesn't matter with a guitar like this. No known dings, scratches or issues. Set up well and the electronics sound great. These pictures are of the actual guitar for sale and were taken last week in my studio.


P12 Satin

The small size of the Parlor belies full and rich sound. A sound that Is characteristic of all RainSongs. Key to the big Parlor sound is the combination of a unidirectional carbon soundboard and hybrid body construction. The P12 features the 12-fret, short-scale NS neck.

P12S's neck joins the body at the 12th fret rather than the 14th fret. This moves the bridge back on the soundboard towards the center of the lower bout resulting in improved sonic energy transmission from the strings to the soundboard and enhanced bass response.

Unidirectional carbon mimics the tight grain of a fine Spruce soundboard. First introduced on the Concert Series, this soundboard is RainSong's lightest. The Hybrid body technology blends the crystalline highs of carbon with the mellow tones of glass. The synergy between the unidirectional soundboard and the hybrid body is obvious in the parlor sound.
