Paul Doyle / Maccaferri / 2010 / Natural / Guitar

This is a rare example of a  high end, Irish made acoustic guitar - clearly borrowing from the Maccaferri style Gypsy Jazz guitars with a D shape sound hole and extreme Florentine cutaway. The guitar features a 900 year old Sitka Spruce top, coupled with Indian Rosewood back and sides. The neck is African Mahogany with a Walnut strip, and a Rosewoodwood fingerboard. The binding is Irish Yew and Herringbone, and the soundhole rosette is Abalone. The other noticeable feature of the guitar - and all Paul Doyle instruments - is a headstock finial featuring a white and pink pearl Celtic design. Tonally this guitar is very versatile, when fingerpicked the individual notes chime with great clarity, yet it strums equally well - the Sitka Spruce top adds punch and the Rosewood back and sides give added resonance. It's in good condition, with just signs of light playwear. It has an underside Artec pickup fitted, with controls mounted inside the soundhole, and comes in it’s original hard case.

Welcome to Glenn's Guitars here on Vintage & Rare. After many years in the industry, and having been fortunate enough to have worked in Hanks and The Acoustic Centre - probably London's two foremost acoustic guitar shops - I decided to do my own thing.

I have a passion for used and vintage acoustic guitars; nearly new second hand guitars because they can represent a bargain compared to the price of a new guitar, older and vintage guitars because they tend to have more character and can often become an investment.

You will notice when viewing my stock list my taste in guitars, as I only sell guitars that I genuinely like - and there are certain brands noticeable by their absence. I am a huge fan of older Gibson, Martin and Guild acoustics, but also more boutique brands such as Lowden and Collings.

I will consider part exchange if it makes your desired guitar a little easier to afford. I also offer a guitar finding service, if there's something specific you're looking for.

If you are happy to buy over the internet, I will send you as many high resolution photos and as much information about the guitar you're interested in as I can. If you can get to me - I'm based in Enfield, only 30 minutes from London Liverpool Street Station - you can always make an appointment with me and come and try some of the guitars out first.

I accept payment by Paypal, bank transfer, cheque and of course cash.
