Knutsen inspired Harp Guitar

Inspired on the amazing instruments of Kris Knutsen from the beginning of the twentieth century this harp guitar have the vintage look of his instruments and even some of his original ideas: heel-less neck, treble strings bank and lower boot point.

Sitka top and mahogany body and neck wit ebony fingerboard.
