Ryoji Matsuoka Model No100 Classical Guitar

1977 Ryoji Matsuoka luthier made classical guitar, with hardcase.

Cedar top with Rosewood sides and back, 650mm scale length with 52mm nut.

Simplified Torres 7 fan bracing.

String action height currently 1st-string 3.0mm and 6st-string 3.7mm.

Guitar appareance is in excellent condition, with no cracks and with a few marks in lower binding.

Not to be confused with a M-series like the M100-M50, this is a step above and a big step. These guitars that are simply numbered without a letter prefix are the best of the best from the master luthier Ryoji Matsuoka, and this No.100 would have cost 100,000 Japanese Yen when it was new in 1977. Constructed of the highest quality solid woods throughout, with a near pristine cedar top and Indian rosewood back and sides carefully assembled at the hands of a master and aged for more than 4 decades.
