Early Guitars and Vihuela

19th Century Guitar
This 19th Century guitar is from the Guild of Luthiers known as Petit Jean.
It is fine sounding Romantic Guitar suitable for concerts or recording .
It stands out as distinctively made with a solid Maple back (unlike the veneer sometimes seen of birch on other instruments from this builder)
It was part of a fine collection of instruments that belonged to Luthier Gabriel Sousa in San Jose, California.
It bears stamp Paris and the name Lacote is etched above the stamp. .
I provide a modern case that fits well.
I am open to trades for this instrument.
I have a similar Petite Jean labeled as such and do not need to keep both.
For this reason I am selling this instrument that is well worth keeping.
