One that we have used is an 1850s Bruno. When we recorded "Rough But Honest Miner: reclaimed music of the 1860s gold rush," we wanted something that had a reasonable "authentic" sound, not a deadnaught boom. Our guitarist Ken Hamm, borrowed back an 1850s Bruno parlour guitar he had just sold for $800 cdn. It had a sweet sound. I don't have a photo of it but the sound comes through clearly on the CD. I would buy it in a moment if it was for sale. |
