This particular Cedar is quite nice, very warm, yet very clear with expression and musicality at your fingertips. Please Inquire about the Availability of 640mm Scale Performance Series OR You can take a look at them HERE The sound, the power, the voice and the sheer joy you experience picking up this guitar can be very surprising. The thing is, I’ve been in possession of these 630mm and 640mm scale guitars from Kenny Hill before, so I’m not that surprised. They are quite powerful and very musical. There are all good things to say. These guitars are getting more difficult to come by, so if you have the chance, get her while the getting is there. Don’t hesitate..you won’t be disappointed. The guitar, pre-owned, has been played with the normal nail ticks and slight scratches on the top, back and sides look very good with nominal play wear from rubbing. Suitability This guitar is set up and plays like a parlor guitar in the neck and the hands, but feels like a regular sized guitar when you sit with her, all with superior power and excellent sensitivity and musicality. It is suitable for those with smaller hands, between 7-8″ of spread between the tip of one’s thumb and pinky, in a comfortably outstretched hand. A 640mm may be better for those with an 8-9″ spread. A 650mm is usually best suited to a hand of 9″ or greater. Price and Discounts The normal price of this guitar is $5500 plus Expedited Shipping (USPS Express 1-2 Day). If the guitar is Discounted, the Price to you, Shipped is listed in the Shopping Cart (Once you Add To Cart) Other Notes Please read more about the luthier, Kenny Hill, here They are always more powerful than you expect. Much more. The guitar will not be discounted, reflecting the difficulty in acquiring this guitar. ___________ Media Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended including EQ manipulation, if possible. We record everything flat with just a touch of Reverb to relieve dryness. My goal is to record the guitar as realistically as is possible. I speak in the recordings, my thoughts about the guitar (and possibly other things?). My speaking also serves to give you my first impressions and to also give you a balance of the engineering (or lack thereof) versus the sound of the guitar. I simply do not have time to engineer much of anything. Thanks. Rich MP3 Audio – 180616-Kenny Hill Performance #3373 Cedar 630 – the guitar got better as I played it. Always surprising the power and the voice of these babies. People think to themselves, ha, she’s small, she got nothing. Wrong! Started growling at me, with piercing trebles, push basses, etc. Lot of fun. https://www.savageclassical.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/180616-Kenny-Hill-Performance-3373-Cedar-630.mp3 My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested. https://www.savageclassical.com/product/richard-f-sayage-solo-guitar-works-volume-1/ _____________ Shipping: Premium Single Arch Top or Double Arch HSC is always included in your purchase price.
