Following email and phone discussion with Allegro's friendly and helpful staff, I purchased a 'demo model' Hohner ER1-SOO Acoustic Parlour Guitar, at a decent price. Sadly, Hohner has now ended all production of what was once its excellent, well priced range of guitars. The ER1 arrived promptly and very securely packed. I'm a fusspot with on-line bought guitars and I was delighted to find that this 'shop demo' one had no more than a couple of tiny imperfections that most people would not have even spotted. As expected, it's very pretty, sounds nicely balanced and is a delight to play - more so than a few of my much more expensive guitars. This first experience of dealing with Allegro has been a very pleasant surprise. 5 stars!
