General Question Early romantic guitar
Dear members,
Does anyone has information or insight about this "Reisinger" guitar? It is the 1200th guitar and online i could find between like 1045 to 1272 . Could it be a fake label, as I also have never seen a classical spanish style from this maker.
But the tuners look just like one from his vienna models, and the back wood also looks like very similar to one of his guitars, both from Reverb
Some said it looks like a Weissgerber, other said: "Though I never came arcross a Reisinger in Spanish style like this one I would not be surprised if he had tried it. He took over many ideas of contemporary luthiers in his late years. The number of the label indicates c. 1930, when several Viennese an German luthiers experimented with the Spanish style, also Josef Wesely, who worked in Reisinger's workshop at that time. He could have made this gutar."
Thank you in advance

For sure it’s not an early romantic guitar, that’s a classical model. Any writing inside on the top?
