The Archer Nightingale-2 has a beautifully warm, sweet and mellow tone without sacrificing projection or dynamic range, with all the character and looks of an antique instrument at a fraction of the price and without the associated maintenance issues.

Ebony fittings with hand carved heart tuning pegs and a gorgeous satin antiqued dark brown finish round out this beautiful looking, sounding and playing instrument.
