    SOUNDS

    Fellas guitarists who have had the opportunity to try all me and always said that this guitar was crazy, because the brand was unknown to them, but the sound was really excellent.
    Personally, I find excellent bass and midrange.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought this guitar in about 1990, by chance, do sacahtn three agreements. 800 Francs.
    Hasars good because my friends told me after guitarists it sounded sounded great.
    I emerged from its case about 1 year ago.
    I brought it to a store to check the handle 6 months ago. Everything was ok, nothing bad had moved.
    The seller was very surprised at his very correct this guitar.

    It suits me 100% for what I do.

    Initially, I was looking for info on this guitar wood component.

    Japanese manufactured, according to the sites devoted to old Japanese guitars (there are fans of these instruments), Suzuki has made acoustic guitars from 1951 to about 1980, these guitars were usually handmade, and are mostly replicas some models and MARTIN GIBSON (the latter being the reproduction of MARTIN D35). In any case, all sites available on the subject, all agree in praising the high quality of these instruments;

    So I give you my opinion on the matter ...

In any case, all sites available on the subject, all agree in praising the high quality of these instruments;

    So I give you my opinion on the matter ...

    Information taken from a luthier, it seems that no solid wood enters the composition of the body ...

    Spruce top, rosewood and maple funds (3 parts), rosewood sides - all rolling, so ... - The handle, I do not know (mahogany, perhaps because it pulls on the red).

    It seems to be 1968, according to the serial number (hard to read, however).

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is quite large, and covered with a gloss (it starts badly ...)

    Access to acute is like on most guitars without dreadnought cutaway, that is difficult beyond the junction of neck / body heel is not too large.

    The guitar is pretty light.

    Despite the disadvantage mentioned above, it is still very playable, just practice it often, and you get used to ...

    I put 8, mainly because of the gloss on the handle (I consider it as a heresy ..)

    SOUNDS

    Sound, there is the pleasant surprise and is very convincing, despite the apparent absence of solid wood and comes dangerously close to the sound ... Martin, the bass is powerful and deep, the midrange was hot, same as the treble, the whole is remarkably balanced, and the overall sound is very "soft".

    It's impressive for a guitar against plywood ... but I would try to get information specifically on the wood used, because I have a doubt (if someone at the info, thank you in advance) .

    Internet users are passionate about these guitars were therefore right, and I understand their passion ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have a few months, I paid a pittance - delivered in vintage flight case, and more! - (I dare not even say the price ...)
    The value is excellent, and of course I would do this choice, just for fun, because I have three other guitars, I did not really need.

    You should know that these guitars have become quite rare and sought a priori - by the fans anyway, despite this, they do not seem to have a rating staggering ... and it's a shame, as they deserve.

    For the record, I knew the guitar since my teens, one of my cousins ​​in having a at the time (it was the mid-seventies) that I found already excellent (indeed, I must ask him if it always has, because I know it has stopped the practice of insrument for a long time, ah, ah, you see me coming ...)

    I also have a friend who has one (I do not know which model), well, Pierre FANEN, great guitarist unfortunately died and met my friend wanted to buy him at any cost ...

    So if you can find in one, you take it while supplies ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    This is a guitar that I bought in 1982 Bayonne (1500.00 francs for the era!) On a head shot, and I have no regrets, this is by far the one I pr eng (I also possde Seagull C6, an Ovation CC157) but it is not amplified, I Reserved for my components in the studio.
    I would be interrested in the connatre CHARACTERISTICS this exact guitar, numrote WOS-260, 91225. Is there a site or a "club" of amateur experts in this type of guitar?
    Thank you for keep me informed

    Kiso Suzuki guitar manufacturing W-35 Model No. 61110 made in Japan, bought in 1976 in St Brieuc in 850fr at the time.
    Marks on the head: "Hillbilly" to be marketing the brand to more American folk
    The decor and cash rose is identical in all respects to the model photographed unlike fret markers are triangular in shape and pearly easel and not adjustable.
    White edging around the perimeter of the blank of the body and the handle
    Reminder frets black marks on white edging on the side of the handle
    Over wooden blanks clear and cash & dark wooden handle.
    Made of wood of a tree, it has not moved a hair, yet it was trimballée.
    30 years without warping or twisting, then 10

    UTILIZATION

    The handle varnish seemed nice long until I come across a Lite Ash Telecaster is incommensurable and incomparable quality.
    So, when I resumed, I feel like I have non-slip soles in the hands, it slows sec.
    Access to acute> 12ème/14ème, do not count on it, besides it not for!

    SOUNDS

    The sound is very good, I was surprised when I first played with a friend recently owned a Martin 10000Fr purchased in 92;
    it is the comparison without blushing if we take care to regularly change the strings.
    It holds the tuning well. It is nickel country / folk / picking / arpèges.Sons very clear
    Martin Strings used or Addario phosphor bronze 10-47
    I'm going to Offir a stint at the luthier, it deserves

    OVERALL OPINION

    Used in itches since 30 years, like campfire, I gives me for 2 years and I think it sounds great and I easily found my picking of yesteryear.
    When buying, yeah, I had to try the other, but hey, at that time not many y'avait province or store of choice in affordable prices.
    As far as I remember it was part of the second price of the store, starting from the bottom and now amount to ~ € 500. (Reduced price in 2007)
    Having had the opportunity to try other since then I can say I made a good choice madam, good choice sir.
