The Loar LH-600VS Archtop

This Loar LH-600VS has aged beautifully. It has done some gigs which has only improved it’s tone and volume. The front and back are hand carved with a classic sunburst and nitro finish. This guitar is now over 20yrs old and the nitro has cracked just like the originals have. As time passes, the good quality Chinese instruments will become highly sort after. This LH-600VS is a good example of what a little time and playing can do.

Just look at what has happened with many vintage Japanese brands and you could argue China’s manufacturing and Western collaboration is far more advanced than it was back then.
