American Conservatory parlor guitar - tour and demo

American Conservatory parlor guitar made by Lyon & Healy most likely between 1910-1920. Spruce top & brazilian rosewood sides and back. I just got it back from luthier Bob Gernandt ( http://www.gernandt.com/ ) who performed a perfect neck reset. After a quick explanation I tacked on a few tunes to demonstrate how it sounds. They're all different styles or tunings: Green, Green Rocky Road - Drop D tuning Pay Day - Open D tuning Blues in A - Standard tuning Skip James style - Open Dminor tuning Ragged and Dirty - w/finger picks, standard tuning Buckets of Rain - Folky in Open D I wish more folks would tour and demo their rare old guiars like Little Brother does at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
