  • Vintage 50’s Venlonia Parlor Guitar

    Vintage 50’s Venlonia parlor guitar, with original gigbag

    This intrument was built in the 1950’s in the Dutch Venlonia guitar factory that has been operational since 1939.

    The guitar is decorated with a beautiful faux pearl pickguard!

    Even after 70 years the guitar still remains in very good condition!
    Due to years of temperature changes the wooden neck bent upwards making it very difficult to tune and play.
    Perhaps it might still be useable for slide playing.
    Except of minimal treatment and replacing the strings I decided to leave the guitar in its original condition and leave it up to the next owner to either keep it that way or fully restore it.

    Total length: 96 cm
    Neck length: 58 cm
    Width: 37 cm
