Tamura P30 concert guitar with case (Cannot read the date clearly but I believe it reads 1985) Made by one of or sometimes refered to as the 'greatest' Japanese luthier, Hiroshi Tamura.  Very lightweight beautifully done. Vintage RARE Tamura P30 concert guitar. Plays and sounds wonderful despite the many years of visible wear. Tamura guitars characteristicly are made lightweight.  Finishes are thin and kept to a minimum which make them more subtle and responsive.  Tamura's resonate longer and have a sound warmth that isn't hindered by a extra thick layers of finish.  Cracks are very common, but luckily this one has survived in tact.  Some waviness to the areas around the bridge - also very common with vintage Tamura's.  The case has a key that works but the handle is torn free on one side.   CONDITION:  Lots of wear from years of playing.  No cracks.Guitar Specifications
