VINTAGE RARE YAMAKI DAION THE YEAR 1981 CARIBOU ACOUSTIC GUITAR. EXCELLENT PREOWNED CONDITION WITH FEW MINOR NICKS.I am selling this for an elderly lady who has lost her husband. This was his guitar. I feel that the description is accurate; however, I am not totally sure.Daion was a high-quality Japanese builder for a few very short years in the late 70s/early 80s. Many of their instruments demand hefty sums and fit,finish, tone and playability are easily on par with Martins or Gibsons from the time. What separates them from the herd is the fact that they had interesting, unusual designs, as well.Body: Very cool oval gypsy-jazz style big old soundhole. Double bound single cutaway body with solid cedar top, wine-red finish and arched maple back and sides with a gorgeous flame maple veneer in brown finish. The lower bout had a deep contour in the middle which is very unique to this instrument. Rosewood bridge with brass saddle and inlaid ring rosette.Neck: Maple neck with bound rosewood fingerboard. Brass dot inlays and a 1 11/16” brass nut. Sealed tuners, 25 1/4” scale length.Weight: 5lbs, 1.6oz.Playability/Sound: The sound from this guitar projects very nicely with a great mid range presence. The lows, mids and highs are ring out with plenty of resonance. This is a great sounding guitar!Case: Includes original hardshell case. There is a scratch / crack in case and normal signs of wear, but it does not affect the functionality of the case. Will provide pictures of case on request.Comes with capo and several picks.THIS IS A SWEETHEART OF A GUITAR!!!SMOKE FREE / PET FREE HOME!!CHECK OUT MY OTHER ITEMS!!ONE DAY SHIPPING!!
