NO LONGER AVAILABLE: Australian Hand Made Classical Guitar - Jim Williams


Recommended Posts

Item: Jim Williams Hand Made Classical Guitar 
Location: Sydney
Price:  $2500... offers considered
Item Condition:  very good, a few minor marks on the soundboard that could be easily fixed as this has a matt finish, no effect to its sound
Reason for selling:  Not being used enough
Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only
Extra Info:  i have owned this guitar since new, bought from the Gladesville Guitar Factory about 9 years ago for $3500, Serial # 703

Hand made by respected Australian luthier Jim Williams who has since retired due to ill health

Soundboard - Western Red Cedar in a matt finish with an arm rest

Back and Sides - East Indian Rosewood

Neck - Queensland Maple

Fretboard - Gabon Ebony

I dont play much these days due to a number of reasons, i have other less expensive guitars that will do the job quite nicely, hence the sale

This instrument really has a beautiful sound, very rich, smooth and sweet, beautiful clarity through the volume register...

When i bought this i also played some of the $5-7K guitars, this one sounded just as good if not better to me, the sales guy explained to me that even though Jim gets sound that is every bit as good as the others his overall quality of finish is not quite up to export concert guitar standard like a Dan Kellaway or Kim Lissarrague, these are not only Australian renowned but world renowned luthiers rightfully commanding top prices for their instruments
