Description

This Washburn Style B from circa 1890 is a finely crafted parlor guitar from the golden era of American instrument making. Built in Chicago by Lyon & Healy, it features a ladder-braced spruce top with Brazilian rosewood back and sides, a slotted headstock, and intricate details typical of Washburn’s 19th-century style. With its articulate tone and responsive feel, it’s a charming example of early American luthiery. This example has undergone several thoughtful repairs that have ensured its playability for years to come. Check out the Specs tab for the full repair history. It includes a hardshell case. 

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
