Default 2016 Furch GC24 LR, Limited Edition like new.

2016 Furch Limited Edition Grand Auditorium Cutaway in mint condition.
One of only 2 imported to the US.
$2100 with buyer covering shipping and PayPal if used.
Open to trade for short scale Martin smaller body or ....?

Here’s a link to the non cutaway version.

I’m the original owner purchased from Heartbreaker Guitars in late 2016. Unfortunately, about two months after purchasing this beauty I injured my left-hand cycling (actually it was the crashing that did the damage!) Since then I’m unable to play full scale acoustics and even with my short scale Larrivee, I’m only good for 30-40 minutes. I’ve held on to this thinking I’d be able to strengthen my hand enough but unfortunately it’s time to pass it on.

It’s never left my non-smoking household and its been kept in its Hisox Case in a humidity-controlled environment. I check the case humidity and take it out for a few strums once a month. I can’t find any blemishes but my 58 year old eyes aren’t perfect. I’ll rate it mint/near mint.
There are plenty of descriptions on-line about the sound, build quality and playability of Furch GA’s so I’ll only add that it’s as clean a build as my custom Northwoods, and in many ways (to my ear) sounds as good if not better.
Current prices for the LE series run $3900. I’m asking $2100 plus shipping and split PPfees.
The case is clean save for a very minor ding in the aluminum surround. Gary at HBG told me about it before I purchased and it’s so minor to be inconsequential. If you are in the Asheville area, you are welcome to come by and play it.

These are incredible guitars. Especially for fingerstyle.

Thanks SlopeD. I agree. It has a full, rich tone with fantastic note separation. It's a shame more people haven’t had a chance to play these. I love my Larrivee LS but both sonically and build quality the Furch stomps all over it.
