Description: This is a Masaru Matano CLASE 600 guitar, manufactured in 1973, as indicated on the label. Matano's craftsmanship is well-regarded for its high quality, and this instrument is no exception. While there is a crack on the body top, which has been factored into the special pricing, it does not affect the sound or playability.Apart from that, there are signs of use, but the neck and frets are in excellent condition, ensuring smooth playability without any issues. A hard case is included with the guitar.SPECIFICATIONS: Top: High Grade Solid Cedar/lacquer The soundboard of this guitar is thin that you may see and touch its braces. It is so sensitive that if you drop a rice grain on it you will hear a decent “rumble”. Back: 2 layers of Indian Rosewood “laminates” that are not glued together. “Laminated” is quite unfortunate term regarding Japanese made guitars. These "laminates" were made from 2 layers of solid wood glued together with natural resins. They were made so well that they performed as good as solid woods while being far less expensive in guitar production and far more resistant to cracking in regular use. Sides: 2 layers of wood not glued together. Outer layer is “laminated” Indian rosewood. Inner layer is solid Cypress. Neck: Mahogany Fingerboard: Striped Indian ebony or very well Ebonized Rosewood Masaru Matano’s Rosewood fingerboards are darkened and so hardened and smoothed, that offer the same looks and feel as Ebony ones With at the nut: 50 mm Scale: 658 mm【Shipping】 FedEx or EMS Japan Post (It will take about 3-7 days to arrive) We will ship the item in 2-4 business days after the confirmation of your payment.【International Buyers - Please Note:】 Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
