Guitars in stock, Fall, 2000
Kim Schwartz, 1997, Rio Rancho, New Mexico was $4,000, now $3,600
European spruce top, Brazilian rosewood back and sides. French polish sealed with nitro-cellulose. This is the best Kim Schwartz I have ever seen. It actually plays louder as you go up in register, making it akin to the human voice in its natural musicality.
Kim Schwartz, 1995, Rio Rancho, New Mexico was $3000, now $2,700
European Spruce top, Indian rosewood back and sides. French polish. An exceptional Kim Schwartz, this guitar plays easily and has a warm, singing tone with excellent projection.
Cordoba Model 30, Spain, $595
Solid cedar top, mahogany back and sides, rosewood fingerboard. An excellent starter instrument.
All instruments come with a hardshell case
