1980s Tres Pinos Model 113 Classical Guitar

Another top-shelf vintage classical guitar, this one made in Mexico, reportedly by hand and with solid wood construction


This is a fairly rare guitar, made sometime between 1984-1987 and originally purchased at a local music store in Orange County. Everything about this guitar is high-quality, the binding on the edges and back of the body and ivory tuning keys.

It sounds even better than it looks, as the 25+ years that the wood has aged produces a warm sound on the low end and crystal clear brights. The fact that it has spent most of that time in it's case means that it still looks great too.

This guitar rivals most Japanese guitars from the same period and is reportedly solid top and not laminate. If you can pick one up in good playing condition for under $200, you'll be very happy with your purchase.

Thanks for looking, more high-resolution pictures here.
