About This Saville Guitar
Saville Baritone Guitar (2009) Carpathian / Rosewood #14
After a bit of research, it appears Saville is no longer building. There are a few examples out there. The build quality is top tier and the tone wood selection is great. The fit and finish are solid after 17 years. I don't find any degradation to the build quality or geometry of neck and body. It plays well with standard action and is tuned to D with Medium Strings. There is light handling wear but no damage or repairs to report! Double ply Maple/EIR Sides, sold piece top and back.
This guitar appears to built with #15 as they share all features outside of the top species. Check out Red Western Cedar #15
