Really cool looking guitar. I like the slotted headstock, classical style rosette. These were built at the Matsumoku factory in Japan for L.D Heater Music Comapny in Oregon, and distributed under the name Lyle.


Sadly, this will need a neck reset at some point. About 50% of the heel has separated, and the action is quite high. I’ve been playing it with a capo, and it still sounds very impressive. Feels well built. The neck feels great, and is also bound and includes a zero fret.


The other issues include a dent and crack on the lower bout, and a missing endpin. Included in the photos.
