Dave King Parlour 12 string - Please email for pictures and/or to arrange to come over and try the guitar.

Asking Price is £4000 or reasonable offer

I am selling a few guitars so look out for my other ads.


Dave King is fast building a reputation as one of Britain's leading Luthiers. This 12 string Parlour plays beautifully and has a unique piano-like sound that is bright, punchy and amazingly loud for its size. The playability and action of the neck is amazing. The tone is rich, balanced and beautiful. For chords or single string work, the sound just leaps out of this guitar with a full-sounding bass and a sweet treble that is perfectly balanced and very loud. It could quite possibly be one of the best 12 strings you will ever play of any size!

Dave is not accepting any new orders at this time so this is a rare opportunity. If you are looking for a small-bodied picker, with stunning looks, out of the ordinary woods and unsurpassed playability and tone then grab this while you can!
