Yamaha - No. 60A - - Ukulele - Japan - 1960

"-------------------- Overview This is a rare opportunity to acquire a vintage soprano ukulele, model No. 60A, manufactured by Yamaha (Nippon Gakki Co., Ltd.) in Japan during the 1960s. This specific model is a prized piece of musical history, representing the high-quality craftsmanship that laid the foundation for Yamaha's global reputation. Historical Context & Collector Significance The Nippon Gakki Era: This instrument features the authentic "Nippon Gakki" internal label, used before the company fully transitioned to the modern "Yamaha Corporation" branding. The presence of the early "Piano" logo is a hallmark of this era, highly sought after by vintage gear enthusiasts. 1960s Japanese Craftsmanship: During the mid-century, Japanese luthiers were perfecting their techniques, often rivaling Western production. The No. 60A is known for its durability and the distinctive, bright tonal character that only aged wood from this period can produce. Aged Wood & Natural Resonance: Over 50 years of natural aging have seasoned the wood, allowing it to vibrate more freely than modern counterparts. This results in a "vintage bark" and warmth that is impossible to replicate in new instruments. Specifications Brand: Yamaha (Nippon Gakki) Model: No. 60A Type: Soprano Ukulele Era: 1960s Total Length: Approx. 53 cm Maximum Body Width: Approx. 16 cm Body Thickness: Approx. 7 cm Condition The ukulele is in vintage condition with an authentic patina that tells its story. It shows natural signs of age including surface scratches and minor finish wear, which collectors often prefer as it validates the instrument's history. The original wooden friction pegs are intact. As with any vintage string instrument, a fresh set of strings and a minor setup are recommended for optimal performance. -------------------- Japan Import All photos were taken by the seller.
