Soundsample of the Parlor Model from Manne, an Italien Luthier company.
China handmade.
Very handsome and playable with a nice and singing tone.
Not as wide necked as other fingerpickers 000 Models but therefore better for strumms and pickings in combination. 12 frets to the body.
Unique laquer , seems dull, but quite hard on the surface.No pickguard ,fixed one myself.
Keeps my Martin and Ovation on the wall. Regular guest in Bed and on the sofa.
Cool, understated Design. Bit flimsy interior by marks of glue smears and laquer inside.Smells addictive !
Will be played in unplugged concerts in clubs and hotels.
Good competitor for other Parlors on Market. Sound and moneywise.
All that is my private opinion,so check yourself!
Thank you for your kind posting ! I think you know Andrea Ballarin personal and I would like you to tell him how much I like his parlor guitar ! I hope he continues to design these guitars and put them on the market. Greetings , rhytmiker
