c. 1930 Regal 0-18

Among the most underappreciated vintage acoustics out there are the X-bracedinstruments built by Regal in the 1920's and 30's. In craftsmanship theseinstruments approach that of Martins, and thanks to a well designed bracelayout and X pattern they sound fabulous as well. This model is roughly thesize and shape of a 12 fret Martin 0-18 with similar specifications. Theback and sides are of Honduran Mahogany, and the top is Red Spruce. Theguitar has a short scale length of 24.2" and a wide 1-13/16" nut. The neckfeels quite substantial, but is very comfortable none the less. It is afingerpicking dream, and is great for country blues and rags. The guitarhas a repaired side crack (invisible, fixed by us), a new ebony bridge witha corrected saddle-line, and one very well repaired top crack (again, fixedhere). The setup and action are very comfortable. It comes with itsoriginal canvas case, too.
