1840's Mirecourt guitar
This is my 1840's Mirecourt guitar. It has no original label and I haven't been able to find any markings on the inside. The tuning machines are later German models.

I posted some more photos to my account. The back is laminated and has a crack running pretty much the length of the back. The sides look to have been repaired a number of times including repairs I had done. The top is perfect except for right next to the neck. You can see the machines don't match the thickness of the head. It has scratches on both sides of the head that I assume the original machines would have covered.

Nice looking guitar, Robert. Do you have any photos of the back and of the head?
