1982 Classical Guitar by Luthier Thomas Humphrey- Spruce, CSA Rosewood

Old Mission Guitar Collection
Featuring the craftsmanship of luthier Thomas Humphrey.

Description: Thomas Humphrey was one of the top US luthiers with a long list of concert artists who used his instruments, including the Assad Brothers, Sharon Isbin, Ricardo Cobo, and many others. This 1982 spruce-top guitar is one of the pre-Millennium instruments that uses a more traditional design, both internally in terms of bracing, and in the neck/body angle that does not have the elevated fingerboard. The guitar is very big sounding with a classic, aged spruce quality that only comes with time and plenty of playing hours. It is also very clear and plays easily, with a comfortable neck shape and easy action. The top has a center seem crack that was repaired years ago with glue only, and is now stable. There is the typical playing wear expected of a professional-use instrument, but with no other cracks or repairs, the guitar is in very good condition for its age. This is a highly sought-after instrument from Humphrey is what was arguably his finest era of guitar making.
