Avian Skylark Indian Rosewood Deluxe Fan Fret Electro Acoustic in Chippenham, Wiltshire, UK

I am privileged to own some fantastic handmade acoustics and this Avian has been very comfortable in their company. It is an absolutely amazing guitar for the money and I have really enjoyed owning it. A recent move to my partner's small house means that this and other lovely gear needs to find a new home.

The guitar is in perfect condition and has been used for DADGAD and other alternate tunings and to accompany me as a singer-songwriter. I wouldn't say it a flatpicker's tool but it does most everything else.

Bear in mind also that it's rosewood....going to be more difficult to get hold of thanks to CITES.

TRADES - if you're going to ask about trades, I would consider:

Thinline Tele,
Custom Tones Ethos Overdrive (haha yeah I know fat bloody chance!)  
Danelectro Pro (or something quirky like an Eastwood/Airline/Watkins/Silvertone) 
Small boutique combo (Swart/Morgan/Carr)
GFI Specular Reverb v2

Plenty of videos on the tubey thing.

Please note that this guitar did not come with a hard case but I will include a cheap foam case that has seen better days. This is reflected in the bargain price as this was a £1,375 guitar without a case, £1,499 with.

The blurb.... "A bold style and a big voice perfect for strumming or fingerpicking. The Avian Skylark has already received Guitarist Magazine's 'Guitarist Choice' award in 2014 & 2015.

Designed by world renowned luthier Harry Fleishman, and includes a new arm Bevel, Multi Scale /Fan Fret, an offset sound hole, the increasingly popular demi-cutaway, a fully adjustable satin Maple neck, and a B-Band pickup."

Avian Guitars are constructed in a new state-of-the-art workshop by luthiers trained by Michael Bashkin & Harry Fleishman. I have a Bashkin OO too; the man's a genius.
