Re: Savona awn 20
I also have this guitar, my grandfather gave it to me several years ago. It has an amazing sound, and I am in love with it. It has been hard for me to find the perfect strings for the instrument though, I have been using Savarez High Tension Nylons, but I might need to find something with a lighter tension. I've seen a posting on craigslist boasting a $2,500 dollar sale as well. The instrument is priceless to me, but perhaps it is valid information elsewhere. If anyone finds any more history, please do post!
Re: Savona awn 20
I own one of these, also saw some speculated hype about the value of the guitar and had it appraised. I took it to Gruhn's Guitars in Nashville, one of the nation's most well-regarded appraisers of stringed instruments, where I was told that "it has many interesting features, but is not a 'valuable' instrument." Mine has a production date of May 1974, brass frets, and in near mint condition. Sorry for the disappointing financial news, but the key thing is that you have a great instrument and many people can't even say that much.
