USED Fender Paramount PM-2 Deluxe 12 Fret Parlour Guitar Sunburst

Just in @ Guitar Brando - Fender PM-2 Deluxe Parlour acoustic guitar. In very nice shape, barely played - this has some very hard to notice surface scratches from normal play, but no "damage" or evidence of repair. This comes with stock hardshell case. 

From the reviewers:

It seems as though Fender has taken a careful look at guitars of the 1930s, such as Slingerlands and Regals. The beauty is a 12-fret model with a medium 24.75-inch scale and a wide 45mm/1.75-inch nut, and the neck is slightly chunky and deepens noticeably once you get past the eighth fret. The 14-inch-wide body is gloss all over with a subtle and well-judged sunburst in a figure-eight pattern. As well as the checkerboard binding and soundhole rosette and the double-checkerboard back strip, this guitar has a traditional ebony belly-down bridge with a drop-in bone saddle, a single-ply tort guard, a fully bound and purfled ebony fingerboard, a black-faced headstock and a set of smooth open-backed tuners with black plastic Waverly-shaped buttons: a cool touch.

The electro sound is as we’ve come to expect from Fishman’s undersaddle systems, and it has adaptable frequency bands that come into play when fine-tuning the bass or easing off a little on the treble.

Acoustically, the PM-2 is quite loud – a degree louder than most of the L-00/parlour-type imports we’ve tried of late. The quartersawn scalloped X bracing must be doing its job, and the top seems fairly thin. The bottom E is tonally a little shallow, but there’s an agreeably quick response from the midrange.

Snappy and bright, with a dollop of pre-war budget-guitar honkness, it’s very much a blues picker’s guitar, with a boxy honk and an almost resonator-like nasality that’ll reward a heavy thumb-picked alternating bass rather than strummed song accompaniment – but it’ll cope with that, at a pinch.
