Thank you for viewing. This item is a full-acoustic archtop tribute guitar. I acquired this used 175-type guitar, thinking of returning to my roots, but I'm used to 17-inch full-acoustic guitars and haven't used it, so I'm putting it up for sale. I believe this is a model from before the model number changed to ATC175. The specifications seem to be the same as the current model. Personally, I prefer this one with the Gibson headstock. The previous owner seems to have been a collector, as there are no scratches at all, and even the protective film on the pickguard and truss rod cover is still intact. There are no signs of string changes, and no scratches on the headstock surface. It's practically new. Recommended for collectors. The tailpiece is a bail tailpiece, but it's unknown whether it was from the time of sale or replaced by the previous owner. It's very similar to the 1957 Gibson ES-175 that Fumika Asari used to play. Like the current model, it has a Honduras mahogany neck, Madagascar rosewood fingerboard, bridge, and saddle, and all-lacquer finish from the undercoat. The sound has a crisp acoustic tone, and the amplified sound has a unique compression, which is the quintessential 175 sound. I previously owned a Gibson ES-165, but this one clearly sounds better. I could cry thinking if I had known about this guitar back then. Gibson guitars are hit or miss, for better or worse. In that respect, Westville and Archtop Tribute by Walkin are excellent in quality control. Terada Gakki's technical skills are world-class. Westville is from Saito Guitar Workshop. Of course, there is no fret wear. The Madagascar rosewood fingerboard and bridge and saddle are very dense and beautiful. It comes with a Boblen (made in Canada) hard case, which costs about 30,000 yen separately. This is also almost new. Please understand that this is a used item before purchasing.
