BAROQUE GUITAR by MARTIN HAYCOCK (2007)

I am selling my lovely baroque guitar by Martin Haycock. It is a fantastic instrument by one of the world's few excellent baroque guitar makers. It has a stopped string length of 66.5 cm.

The neck, fingerboard and pegbox are veneered with ebony. The guitar has a superb, strong, and warm tone throughout and really good projection. The spruce top is adorned with an elegant rose and ”moustache” bridge.

The guitar works wonderfully for both solo music and continuo, which I find to be a surprisingly rare attribute for baroque guitars. It has great projection, perhaps due to a rare “hardwood” yew vaulted back. I am only selling it since I have several new instruments arriving imminently.

A new guitar from Martin with case would be around €8200 today, I purchased it for €7000. Given that I have used it a lot and that there is some wear, I would be happy to negotiate a reasonable price.

The instrument comes with a custom deluxe case by Kingham.

The instrument is in Paris.
