2003 Ryan Nightingale - Acoustic Guitar
Here we have a wonderful Kevin Ryan Nightingale Grand Soloist that has been a musical mate for recording artist Steve Baughman since 2003. It features a gorgeous Brazilian Rosewood and Sitka Spruce body with an Armrest Bevel and venetian cutaway. This guitar is great proof of how good Sitka Spruce can be as it has had a ton of great music pumped through it to bring to it's full potential. But don't worry I asked Steve and he said he left some good notes in there. Don't miss a rare preowned Ryan Nightingale, especially this one...

Player Reviews:
"Big, open and beautiful voice on this Ryan Nightingale. Steve Baughman is one of the great modern fingerstyle players and I've seen him perform with this guitar in the past. It's a great Ryan that is fully speaking, thanks to Steve's fingers and 'claws'. It is setup great and is ready for it's next musical partner. " - Paul Heumiller
"This is my old buddy Steve Baughman's guitar. It's set up with very light action and plays like a dream. The tone is rich and full with plenty of sparkle. It's a great guitar." - Al Petteway
