Question I was jut given an AC Fairbanks guitar that I was told was from 1895 because of the A on the headstock and the metal label...It does not have the original bridge and I wonder if anyone has a picture of what it should look like...thanks Paul wow the sound is so big for such a little parlor guitar
Answer I found a picture of an AC Fairbanks from 1891. I hope this gives you some info on your guitar and maybe an approximate age. If this doesn't help, or isn't what you were asking, let me know and I'll do a follow up.
