Rokkomann F344

Purchased by a teenager in 1974 to 450 francs at the time.
Guitar shaped to drag around the campfire.
Table mountain and back. Rustic but solid design (it has suffered the blows of a rejected suitor ...)
Sleeve, not round.
No notch.
The varnish has suffered a lot but considering her age ...

UTILIZATION

The neck has not moved in over 30 years. Just a Truss Rod adjustment from time to time.
Is particularly good agreement
Ergonomics "Dreadnought" (especially not to the stomach with age)
The volume but rather dull. The strings are not very different according to the game. Acute withdrawal.
Sound adapted to support but not virtuosity.

SOUNDS

Perfect as mentioned above to play around the campfire or in the study.
Not enough volume or clarity to the scene.

OVERALL OPINION

38 years is a relic
Forgotten for 20 years, emerged from the closet, it made me want to replace the cover.
Exceptional value for money (just over 10 francs per year) and always the same sound: =))
Rokkoman is gone and it's a shame we have to recognize that they were able to make the public very reliable instruments.
