Description

Gallagher Guitars, made famous by Doc Watson, were crafted 60 miles south of Nashville in Wartrace, TN until 2019, after which the shop came under the direction of David Mathis and moved to Murfreesboro. This 2005 Steve Kaufman signature 14-fret fret dreadnought features an unexpected Florentine cutaway, sunburst top, abalone purfling. Indian rosewood and most likely Engelmann spruce are the tonewoods, providing a big, warm tone. It is in good playable condition with some wear and dings throughout. There is some finish bubbling on the back of the neck/headstock joint and on the binding on the sides of the guitar. A pickup has been added. Includes its original hard shell 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.
