For Sale - Kenny Hill “Masters Series” Copy of Luis Panormo 2004
Built in the style of Luis Panormo, an Italian born luthier working in London in the 1830's, this guitar is nicknamed "Cacahuate" or peanut, because of its distinctive shape. The volume and projection of this small guitar are quite astonishing, and the ease of playing is pure pleasure, attributable to the relatively short string length. This style of guitar construction is really the last evolutionary link leading up to Antonio de Torres and the emergence of the modern classical guitar. This is the top-end "master's series" instrument.

** Warning: Nigerian Scam Alert **
Several people from Nigeria or West Africa have contacted people who advertise on this list, asking to buy a guitar with a check for thousands of dollars over the price of the instrument and have the seller wire the remaining money to Nigeria. Don't do it - the check will bounce - this is a way to steal your money! Thanks for this tip about the Nigerian scam from the Dartmouth lute site
See 419 Scam Explained
See Secret Service Scam Description
Do not reply to anyone from Africa wanting to buy a guitar. This is a known scam. Usually they want to send you a check for more than the purchase amount, from someone else who owes them money, and they ask you to send them the remainder. Regarding the Nigerians, I imagine the scam works several ways. First, they hope you will send the instrument before the check arrives so they can steal it. Second, they hope you will send the instrument after the phony check arrives AND you send them a good check, stealing both the instrument and the money. They're out nothing but an email (no cost), and postage for a phony check. If they send you a check, it will bounce. If one out of 300 people falls for this scam they've made a good return. This scam in various forms is one of the top 5 industries in Nigeria, possibly conducted by corrupt government officials.
