(NEW) New from our good friend Chuck Baleno, here is a small guitar with a relatively unique presentation. This is a Martin-style 00 body built with a 12-fret neck joint, which increases the bass presence while keeping the overall size small and manageable. Thankfully there is also a soft cutaway for access to the upper frets, so it's the best of all worlds!
Adirondack spruce top, mahogany back/sides/neck. This is a short 24.9" scale instrument with 1 23/32" bone compensated nut, 2 1/4" string spacing at the saddle. Baleno uses hide glue for all tone-related bracing and also includes stainless steel frets and rosewood bindings at no extra charge. The ebony fingerboard has a compound radius, and ebony is also used for the bridge and pins. The tuners are Waverly. Excellent lacquer finish.
We've been saying it forever, the value presented by Baleno instruments is second to none, they stand up with the best out there. Includes original hard case.
