Description

Rare guitar from France, built around 1890 in Mirecourt after the tradition of Rene Lacote by Jerome Thibouville-Lamy!

A gorgeous original 19th Century Romantic Guitar from the renowned Thibouville-Lamy workshop. Labelled Jerome Thibouville-Lamy (JTL). Exact year unknown, but late 19th century would be estimated.

This is a slightly smaller guitar with a scale lenght of 578 mm and a nut width of 44 mm. But it was built very expertly using very high quality materials.
One-piece rosewood back, high-quality tuners, ebony fingerboard, rich and very noble ornaments – plus an impeccable and masterly workmanship … all this makes this guitar a very noble instrument.
In addition, the guitar comes with the original wooden case.

The rosewood used for the back and sides is the highest quality wood available at the time. The guitar also has a very fine spruce top and an ebony fingerboard. The beautiful inlays are striking.

The condition of the guitar is fantastic (only some stable repairs) and it plays very easily with a straight neck and low action.

The guitar sounds noble and immediately impresses with a sweet tone. The basses are deep and the trebles are smooth, lively and colourful with great expressiveness.
As soon as you play this guitar, you have the impression of melting into the instrument, because the sound is very touching, this guitar awakens deep emotions and you can literally feel how the tones just jump out of the instrument.
Definitely a romantic guitar on a very high level with which you can authentically revive the music of that time.
