2008 Maingard Guitars 000-12C - 000 12 Fret Cutaway Acoustic Guitar
This is the ideal guitar size for fingerstyle. The combination of the standard scale length with a 12-fret neck, puts the bridge right in the "sweet spot" on the top. Front and back bevels make this guitar extremely comfortable to play and the Pink Ivory wood is rare in availability and tonal quality. It's sweet and powerful in equal porportions and offers a unique voice that will be at home in any collection. It's adorned with a custom Wave rosette and a Seagull inlaid at the 12th fret. This is a rare and special Maingard.

Player Reviews:
"Every Pink Ivory guitar we've ever sold had a rare and special voice. There is a sweetness inherent to this tonewood that is all it's one. I love the touches on this guitar as well, Marc Maingard's custom Wave rosette and Seagull inlay nod to it's birthplace of Cape Town, South Africa." - Paul Heumiller
"This is a perfect fingerstyle guitar. I love the 12 fret neck and the Pink Ivory sounds amazing." - Al Petteway
