Super vintage Washburn Parlor Guitar Style 101 made in 1887!. Needs some repairs but Super cool! Replaced bridge and tuners. Cracks in the top and bottom sides and around strap button hole. Project but plays and sounds great as is. Here are some pics and a link to a Youtube video of me playing some blues on it. SOLD
I only uploaded a couple of pics, message me if you are interested and I'll e-mail you more.

Sure, I priced it out for a guy in Australia. It Iwas like $70 or so. Its a small guitar and light! I'll ship it anywhere.- John

WOW! What a cool collectable! I have an old 2 string instrument from the mid 1800's that was made with a coconut, wood, animal skin, and whale ivory inlays - this would have been a cool partner, sorry I missed it.
