Offered is an 80s Morris Groovin' Power Acoustic PA-17G Chet Atkin style Nylon Electric Classical Guitar. Hand made in Japan by Moridaira, the same boutique workshop that designed and OEM built Prince's iconic HS Anderson Madcat Tele guitar for Stateside distribution by Hohner (see last pic).
This guitar should remind you of Gibson's long discontinued Chet Atkins line of electric nylon classicals as well as their Epiphone counterparts from the same period. However please do not confuse this with the cheesy glossy MIK Epis - Moridaira's MIJ professional acoustic line 'Morris' is very highly regarded domestically in Japan and are played by many famous professional artists across Asia and Europe. Their build quality and price-to-performance ratio are unmatched by today's builders in similar price points.

This guitar is in superb condition for its age with only light, age-appropriate wear that you'd have to search closely to find (see pics). The only issue I noticed is that the 3rd string Piezo barely outputs compared to the others thru my practice amp, tho it may or may not behave the same thru your setup. It does not affect the instrument's playability. That said, you may want to have the electronics adjusted or upgraded at your expense. You may also want to setup and adjust the instrument to your personal playing preference upon purchase. If you've been looking for an awesome electric nylon solidbody to record and gig with, here's a good one. The guitar will be carefully packed in a premium softcase to ensure safe delivery. Please review all pictures and detailed descriptions carefully.
