A classic design absolutely ideal for fingerpicking. The Cilgerran is based on a 1920s Martin 000 but with features to bring it up to date with today’s players such as a more contemporary neck width and the option of a modern ‘c’ cross section neck or the traditional ‘V’ shape. The guitar has a very even beautiful tone across all the strings with rich, full harmonics
