This is the MG-601, the successor to the MG-100ST, which was a huge hit as the Shinji Tanimura model, appearing with a model number change from 1981. It does not appear in the 1991 catalog, so it seems to have been manufactured for about 10 years. Compared to the MG-100ST, it is characterized by a slightly more subdued color tone. There are some minor scratches in places. Slight peeling on the back of the body. Playability with strokes is not bad. A hard case is also included. However, it is quite old. It is partially damaged, but there are no problems with opening and closing. As this is a vintage guitar, please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive or seeking perfection. This model is not currently listed on flea market sites, so it is considered highly rare. Morris
