Description
Django Reinhardt Maccaferri style Gypsy Jazz guitar made in Korea and supplied by JHS (John Hornby Skewes). The JHS model is a Vintage VMC800N with a solid Spruce top, Mahogany back, sides and neck and a Rosewood fretboard. It has some nice features such as the solid wood binding, sound-hole rosette and decorative tailpiece and has a spare bridge should a higher action be needed. The guitar also has a truss rod which can be adjusted if required.
I bought this guitar new in 2002 and have owned it ever since. It’s in excellent condition with only one minor (miniscule) dent on the rear neck as shown in the photo. It plays very nicely and is loud being ideal for all levels of player.
I subsequently bought a lockable Guardian CG-020-D Hardshell Dreadnought case so as to fit the guitar precisely and protect it say when taking it to gigs or for transportation. The current price of this case new, e.g. on other selling platforms, is c£150 and is sourced from the States.
The guitar price is £370 and, its strongly recommended case, £70. I would sell both for £430. Collection Only.
