Topic: Fransk originalgitarr från c:a 1820

Hej,
det är inte jag som säljer denna men jag hjälper en vän, nämligen James Westbrook - en av de främsta experterna på 1800-talsgitarrer. Jag har själv provspelat denna gitarr och jag kan garantera att den är i mycket fint spelbart skick - redo för konserter och inspelningar - och med en mycket vacker ton. Priset är extremt bra för denna gitarr. Gitarren är byggd av en elev till Lacote och är helt i Lacotes stil. En äkta Lacote kostar ju runt 180 000:- så denna mycket snarlika gitarr för drygt 20 000:- är ett mycket bra köp! Här är annonsen:

stamped: 'Marotel' on the neck-block. Nicolas Marotel, Paris c. 1820. With a handwritten label which reads: Legros, luthier, ex ouvrier de Mr Lacote de Paris (trans: Legros luthier, former worker of Mr Lacote of Paris) Select maple back and sides, with hazelfichte figured spruce soundboard - stunning looker.  converted by Legros De La Neuville around 1820s from wooden tuning pegs to tuning machines. Vannes says that Legros invented mechanical tuners. No case. Condition: fully restored, plays and sounds beautifully, equipped with gut strings. typically of guitars of this age, the back had shrunk a little and someone has made up the width by adding a little more maple around the edges (see photos). 1inch repaired crack to bottom bout (slightly pushed in), centre-seam had opened at one time, but now repaired. beautiful violin-like original finish to back and sides. This guitar would suit a serious (professional) player,  preferably for non nail-players , due to the low action (because of no raised fingerboard). 

String length 640mm, back length 448, widest part of the body 296, nut width 45, string height at the 12th fret 3.25 (6st string) and 3.00 (1st string).

A museum piece which is totally playable

Just to be Clear: it was made by Nicolas Marotel, and later was converted from wooden tuning pegs to mechanical tuners, almost definitely by a pupil of Lacote called Legros De La Neuville, at this time Legros added his handwritten label.

£1,950
