One of the most iconic and wanted japanese guitars from the sixties, also known as Sharp Five. There have been reissues, but this one is 'the original', supposedly built around 1968.
In very good condition and all original parts, sturdy and very well built with beautiful german carving. Electronics and mechanics are all good. Straight neck and the frets are fine. The sound ranges from clear twang to garage growl.
The dark blue color is discreetly sparkling. The binding on the neck has split in two places but there is no actual loosening of the binding (see photos).
(This is a guitar hard to photo capture, with so many curves reflecting. For any questions or specific photos, just PM me and I'll get back to you.)
