Ryoji Matsuoka Model No50 Classical Guitar

1978 Ryoji Matsuoka luthier made classical guitar, with hardcase.

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

Matsuoka 6 fan bracing.

String action height currently 1st-string 3.6mm and 6st-string 3.8mm.

Guitar appearance is in very good condition, with no cracks and with a few dings and a some fret wear.

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.50 would have cost 50,000 Japanese Yen when it was new in 1978.
