Description: Thompson Parlor Deluxe:

Only 4 years in the making, at long last our Thompson parlor has arrived. What a fantastic piece.

This is a true parlor, with a 12" lower bout; 8 5/8" upper bout; and a depth at the tail of 4 3/16". Beautiful Curly Maple back and sides with a fine, fine Sitka spruce top.

Curly Maple body and fretboard bindings. The fretboard has a black purfling line next to the Maple binding, and Ted's 1/2 Moon abalone side position markers.

The Ebony fretboard also has abalone dot markers. Ebony bridge with Ebony pins/abalone dots. Ebony heelcap, Maple tail wedge.

All the bindings have Koa purfling lines adjacent for a tasteful accent.

Clear pickguard. Abalone and multiple Koa rings form the rosette. Slotted headstock with Waverly tuning machines and genuine Ebony buttons.

Custom fit case included. The tone is much bigger than you would imagine, this is a great little box with a Big voice!
