Thank you very much for viewing this item. This is a custom Kasuga M-100 mandolin, a Japanese vintage instrument made in the late 1970s. As it was originally priced at 100,000 yen, it would be equivalent to an instrument worth over 300,000 yen in today's currency. At the time, Kasuga mandolins and Blue Bell mandolins were equally popular. Overall, I believe the Kasuga mandolin more closely followed the Gibson F-5 design. The mandolin for sale uses exceptionally good materials. The maple on the sides has beautiful tiger striping. The ebony fingerboard also uses tightly grained wood. The tuners are made by Gotoh, allowing for stable tuning. The overall condition is beautiful. A small pickguard has been installed. The pickguard is attached to the body with double-sided tape for easy removal. The frets have been leveled and have over 70% remaining, so they should be fine for a while. The slope processing on the frets from the 25th fret onwards allows for comfortable playing without the pick hitting the fingerboard. There are no dead spots or buzzing sounds. The string height is approximately 1.5mm at the 12th fret on the G string. Although it has been over 45 years since its production, it still sounds great without any problems. Many instruments from this era have deteriorated binding and two-point (corner) damage, but the mandolin for sale has been beautifully repaired and finished without any noticeable discrepancies. A perfectly fitting hard case is also included. Please understand that this is a vintage item that is over 45 years old, and only those who understand this should purchase it. No returns or refunds accepted. Shipping will be done by wrapping the case in bubble wrap. ※ Limited-time price reduction until December 21st (Sunday)! ¥98,500 → ¥93,000
