Parlour Acoustic Guitars

Experience the timeless allure of parlour guitars – the perfect blend of portability, comfort and classic sound. Known for their compact size and rich midrange tones, these acoustic guitars are ideal for cozy jam sessions or anyone seeking a touch of vintage flair.

Originally popularized in the 19th century, parlour guitars have made a modern comeback, thanks to their intimate, ‘boxy’ sound that’s perfect for blues, folk and roots music. Their smaller bodies make them easy to hold, whether you’re a beginner, a traveling musician, or just want a comfortable ‘sofa guitar’ for relaxed playing. Parlour guitars also often have a shorter scale length, with the fretboard traditionally meeting the body at the 12th fret. Our range includes 12-fret classics all the way up to modern 20-fret interpretations, meaning you can find the right size for you whilst keeping the intimate charm and distinct sound that makes parlour guitars so iconic.

Our collection features standout models from legendary brands like Alvarez, Fender, Epiphone and many more. For vintage-inspired enthusiasts, Gibson’s iconic collection are must-sees. Looking for affordability without compromise? Gretsch’s models deliver fantastic playability and superior tonal clarity.
