Above is a really nice old Oahu Publishing company parlor sized guitar. These pics are pre-restoration. It's currently in the shop. Spruce top, probably Koa sides and back. This is a really nice old late 30s/40s guitar with plenty of tone and lots of character. Wonderful player.
And, above, a super cool Harmony Patrician archtop. These are pre-restoration pics as well. It's also in the shop right now. Mahogany sides, back and top w/ a spruce strip through the middle. Somebody scratched the name "Gene" into the fretboard between every fret! Autry?? Who knows. Character, character, character. This is a beautiful instrument.
