Mass Hirade Master Arte Eight 1980

Mass Hirade Master Arte Eight 1980. Nylackat lock 2019. Distinkt ton i gott skick säljes i Malmö. //Mass Hirade was originally a luthier at the Masaru Kohno workshop. He left in the 70s and later became president at Takamine. The Master Arte series were high end concert classicals meant for export, partly built and signed by Hirade himself. It’s easy to see similarities with Kohno guitars from the same era. This particular guitar is model eight, which I believe to be the highest out of the three five, seven and eight and priced at $1,200 dollars in 1980, which translates to $3,777 today. The playability is truly excellent. The 660 mm s make it easy to play. The sound is deep, clear and bold, like Kohnos. The guitar is in very good condition The top lacquer is new done three years ago. But later on got one little spot down on the top lock. No other tings or scratches worth mentioning.
