Due to high shipping and handling costs, the final reduced price will be 7,900 yen. Thank you for your understanding. Price reduced to 7,900 yen on May 31st. I bought this about 15 years ago on Yahoo! Auctions for around 8,000 yen. I was sold by the sales pitch of "70s vintage, incredibly resonant!" available for 8,000 yen used. I also liked the hummingbird-style pickguard and the red body, and it was a "casual guitar" that I could handle without worrying too much about the price range. However, the sound was too loud for playing at home, and I wasn't good enough to play it outside, so it remained in the closet. I recently took it out and played it, and personally, it sounded like a normal, good acoustic guitar. There were no frets that didn't produce sound, but there are many scratches and dents from when I bought it used, and since it's probably been around 50 years since its release, the details are honestly quite bad due to aging. The screws are also rusty. I haven't touched the rod because it didn't need adjustment, but the neck looks straight to the untrained eye. Due to the above condition, I don't know when or which parts will need to be replaced or repaired, so please consider this as a junk item. Please make your purchase based on the images and with no returns or claims. Shipping will be done in a RITTER RCG700-D soft case, wrapped in bubble wrap, and then packed in a cardboard box. The soft case was new about 10 years ago and cost around 10,000 yen, but it shows signs of use and storage. The zipper in image 20 is broken. There are no tears. The strings will be removed and shipped without strings, so please prepare your own. Non-smoking, no pets. Thank you for viewing.
