Members T.B. Posted May 30, 2012 Members Share Posted May 30, 2012 I owned this guitar once before a Cort Earth 900P: solid cedar top, mahogany back/sides with a satin finish... I gave it to a kid. I ordered the new version of the Cort Parlor from the Luce Series a month ago and she arrived yesterday: cedar top, rosewood back/sides with a lacquer finish. I'll give a review a lil' bit later after I stop drooling. Scale Length: 25-1/3" Body Construction: Acoustic Neck: Mahogany 2pc, "C" Shape Neck Joint: Dovetail Fingerboard Material: Rosewood Fingerboard Inlays: Abalone Number of Frets: 19 Strings: D'Addario USA EXP16 Light I'll try to take better pics next time, smaller too.

Members Freeman Keller Posted May 31, 2012 Members Share Posted May 31, 2012 Here is a little goat for a very pretty little guitar. One of the nice features of lacquer, Trina, is that it resists drool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T.B. Posted June 3, 2012 Author Members Share Posted June 3, 2012 Freeman, the drool just wiped on off... just like you said. Pros: The solid cedar top, rosewood back and sides, thin even lacquer finish, abalone purfling / herringbone binding, abalone rosette with a floral fret board inlay, and headstock were beautifully done. The craftsmanship inside the guitar was given the same care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
