If you're a musician, you probably know the name Tama from their drum kits.
But, Tama also made exceptional acoustic guitars back in the 70's when so many great guitars were coming out of factories in Japan. This one is no exception.
I am seriously thinning my herd to alleviate the congestion in my home office, as well as freeing up some $$$ for other things, which is why I have two Tama's and a few other guitars currently listed for sale. The purchaser of this guitar will also receive as a bonus a framed ad for the #3561 Tama guitar (picture in the photos in this ad).
This is a 1976 Tama model #3561 dreadnought. Made in the D-28 style, with the features of a pre-war D28, this really is a lovely guitar. Compared side by side with a 70's D-28 at over twice the asking price, I think you would choose this! These first series pieces are hard to find in nice condition, this one is from the first series of Tama guitars and was made in 1976 as per the date printed on the neck block as shown in photo. With an average retail price of around $450 in 1976, this guitar would weigh in at around $2500 in today's money.
Solid spruce top
Top grade rosewood body (Japanese ‘double plate’)
Nut width - 1 3/4"
String spacing at saddle - 2 1/4"
Condition wise, she has the very occasional tiny ding and a few character lines from musical love she was shown over the years. Seriously though there is a very low level of any kind of cosmetic wear for the age and for a nearly 50 year old guitar it is in superb condition. The sound is full, rich, and well balanced. Beautiful herringbone trim.
The frets are in great shape and do not require any attention that I can discern. Bridge has not been planed in the past to drop the action, which is usually seen on these, and the action is very good, a neck reset is not required. Comes with a hardshell case and all latches work.
I currently own two Tama's, this #3561, but also a #3559 that I have listed here on Reverb.
Not interested in trades at this time. Thanks for looking~!
