Was $1350 now $8101970 signed Tamura P60 (top model that year)660 mm scale52mm nutSolid Ezo SpruceSolid SA (Brazilian) Rosewood back and sidesEbony fingerboardNew Gotoh tunersThis Hiroshi Tamura is structurally sound and cosmetically fair. Its cashew lacquer finish still looks good but has some issues that you might expect on a 47 year old guitar: a few nicks, nail marks, and a scuff on the end of the body. And although the soundboard and body are in perfect shape, the p60 has a Spanish heel that has several joints, one of which may have been repaired. The joint is solid but the finish is a bit messy. The neck is perfectly straight and absolutely stable. The action is low. This P60 has the deep soulful sound with strong basses and clear trebles that Tamura's best guitars are noted for. Tamura's top model was made with solid, high quality woods, but without the frills. Aged SA rosewood and Ezo spruce are quite rare and this vintage model still has retained its beautiful tonal qualities. Tamura's work was inspired by Ramirez. This P60 is braced like a Ramirez 1A and the interior sides are lined with cypress like the 1A as well. And although not as pretty as many guitars are these days, it is powerful, balanced, and loud and clear, and you will recognize that it sounds better than many much more expensive guitars that you may have played. This concert level guitar is a great find from one Japan's highest award winning luthiers. I bought this guitar July 2016 for $1050 and invested in the Gotoh tuners for another $125. I have played this guitar almost daily since July and am impressed with its tonal qualities, but I recently found my dream guitar so I am selling this one rather then letting it sit around.
