Asturias - AST 50 - - Classical guitar - Japan - 1982

Asturias AST-50. Handcrafted Japanese classical guitar. This guitar has been inspected and set up by master luthier Wataru Tsuji, who collaborated with Masaru Matano, perhaps the best luthier during Japan's Golden Age. This guitar is in good condition with a solid cedar top, rosewood back and sides, a mahogany neck, an ebony fingerboard and gold hardware. In terms of tone, it is beautiful and powerful. The action is around 4 mm on the low E string at the 12th fret and around 3 mm on the high E string. The white beads are fitted to achieve a good break angle due to the low saddle. For this price you won't find a better classical guitar anywhere.
