We’ve got the birthplace of a tradition in the store today: the Pynon Prototype that Mark Blanchard first built in 1999! This design has gone on to become one of Blanchard’s most popular steel string guitar models. The Madagascar Rosewood back and sides, coupled with a tight-grained Sitka Spruce top, give the guitar a bright, warm tone with lots of headroom in the middle registers. Visually, Blanchard adorned the rosette, fretboard, and bridge pins with colorful Abalone, and completed the look with a slotted headstock and gold Waverly tuners. Until the original owner tragically lost his life in an avalanche in 2005, this guitar was lovingly played and is in immaculate condition. This is a great opportunity to own a rare and precious small-bodied Pinyon–without the wait!
This little parlor is an excellent guitar for old time and blues fingerstylists, with its articulation and bright character. The low profile neck and 12-fret design make this an instrument which is effortless to play. 
I've always been a fan of Blanchard guitars and small guitars too, so this guitar is nearly perfect. It's a joy to play and it's beautiful too. | Scale Length | 25.5000 in |
