Vintage 1972 Giannini Classical Guitar Brazilian Rosewood with Hard Ca - $500 (Chico)
QR Code Link to This Post
The comfortable mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard delivers smooth playability, while the vintage lacquer finish has aged gracefully, adding both character and resonance. This model showcases exceptional wood selection typical of Giannini’s early-1970s production, before Brazilian rosewood became restricted and increasingly scarce.
The top center seam was cracked, and expertly and securely repaired.
