Louis Sutz Parlour Guitar
Louis Sutz, Cincinnati, OH. Slotted headstock. Appears to have been altered. One hairline crack on back on bass side. Multiple hairline cracks on top. Holes patched on top. Height: 96cm.
Louis Sutz (1862-1942) was a German-born instrument maker in Cincinnati in the early-1900s. Sutz built guitars and violins in the area of Cincinnati known as "Over the Rhine" which was formerly known for its mostly German population. Mr. Sutz had a reputation for being very demanding and rarely hired apprentices for the factories. Sutz was a very strict luthier and maker of fine instruments including violins, mandolins, zithers, and guitars.
