2025 Ken Whisler Classical Cedar East Indian Rosewood

I held this back for my own use, and am now making it available discounted as used to raise funds to buy a retiring luthier’s remaining tonewoods. As is the case with any guitar commandeered for my own use, I installed ebony strap buttons. This guitar has seen weekly use for my role as a music minister in a 130 year old gothic cathedral.
