Sugi Guitars, a Japanese handmade brand produced by Japan's world-renowned master craftsman Makoto Sugimoto, is pleased to announce the arrival of its flagship model, the DS496 Anniversary Model.

This model was produced in 2005 to commemorate the 100th sale of Sugi Guitars, and was made from a special piece of wood. Sugi Guitars has been producing wonderful guitars and basses using rare woods in the world, and this time we have a timeless timber-sport maple top, which is even rarer than spotted maple, and a back wood that is also one of the rare ones with a bright wood grain. The back is made of quilted Honduran mahogany, which is also rare. The neck is also made of rigid timber maple, and the fingerboard has the trademark bat-shaped bat inlay.

The wood has a thick core mid-low range, clear and comfortable response, and good resonance. The pickups are Sugi original pickups mounted in HH layout, and the 5-way switch can output single coil sound as well, which is a key point of the wide range of sound making.

The lacquer coating has cracks on the surface due to age, and the pickguard has been removed and the screws have been filled in, but the playing surface is in very good condition. The frets and truss rod are in good condition, and the guitar can be used for many years to come.

The strap lock pin is missing. Hard case, pick guard, and certificate are included.
