This is like a high end custom   shop guitar and the tone is as  good as it gets no matter how much you  spend.  On sale this weekend and you will not be  disappointed if you buy this guitar but well be blown away with how  much  guitar you get for this kind of money and not sales    bs.  I just lowered price $250   bucks and this is so much  guitar and not sales bs and this guitar could embarrass  most  guitars even super expensive ones. and it has an aged mature tone from old wood with those piano like overtones and  vibrato overtones with magic balance and tone as good as it gets and this guitar well  totally inspire your playing and writing. It is way beyond even guitars for thousands and this is an opportunity to  get a mature and  rare  guitar with a ton of vintage mojo and it has a lot of mountain magic in it.  You could invest $3800 in a newer made in  Japan  Yamaha or a Martin or other high guitar but it well not sound as good as this  older  custom  shop like guitar........not even close and not sales  bs. I  am an expert packer and it  comes with the hardcase. so it well get to you safely. This  guitar even has a passive pickup which sounds to my ear like an older   Baggs pickup I used to have in some guitars as so natural sounding.  I used to go to Baggs place in Santa Monica years ago before he made it big and he worked on my  guitars and we had some grat talks and such a smart and cool guy. I have only had two of these the last  12   years and   this is off  the chart with vintage all solid wood tone, orchestral balance, musical piano like overtones,  vibrato overtones,warmth with clarity and crystalline air, bloom and reminds me of   two pre-war Martins I sold about a  year ago  but to my ear this guitar has a more orchestral full range with more piano like overtones and   bloom.  It has a few  dings but looks great and was well cared for and has a  ding on the back of   the neck and I   think a couple on the top and some marks on the  top of headstock but this guitar is beautiful and the way the top has aged to a  vintage golden deep natural color  is hard to capture on picture but live looks really sweet. It  plays  great as  as and is just  dreamy. This came from a collector who I have bought several  guitars from but he  almost changed his mind on selling me this one and you could spend a ton more money and still not get  this much.The silking patterns on the top with the super fine lines  that go across  the solid  top are  the kind that age the best.  I just  noticed a few marks on the top of the headstock but this  guitar is really in a  class  by itself. I cannot say enough about this guitar and a great one like this is very hard  to find so if you like it  grab it while you can as you well have a  guitar that sounds like you spent   big money and the way the top has  aged with the golden vintage color is art. I cannot   say exactly but the Japanese are known for collecting wood and have  been for a long time so this could be very old wood. 
This guitar sounds amazing. If you live in  Hawaii,  PR,  Alaska  or anywhere where the shipping is more you will need to chip in a bit more.This guitar is one worth grabbing and very hard for me not to  just keep it.I  just hope I get to record with it a bit before it sells.This guitar can push around most high end guitars and show them what real tone is....... not kidding or selling. This guitar is as good as it gets  and neck is very very comfortable and my wife said this is the best sounding  guitar I have had in over   5 years and she  is a great   player and songwriter.
