Beautiful vintage Japanese classical guitar, the years have been kind and she sounds absolutely beautiful
Another little-known gem, this one was built in Japan and probably distributed through local music stores way back in the day. I found it on craiglist, but I've read stories of people digging them up at garage sales as well.
That's really the only information out there though, which factory it came from and which years they were distributed, no clue... **UPDATE AUG 2013: Granada guitars were built at the Matsumoku factory in the 1970s** It does play nice though and it had seen it's fair share of abuse, but was still rock solid.
This is one of those things where you can probably pick one up from anywhere between $25-$60 if you get lucky, but longtime players might be willing to spend $150-$200 to get their hands on a vintage MIJ classical.
Thanks for looking, more high-resolution pictures here.
Just picked one of these in very good condition today from a charity shop for £5.
