Just cleaned, restrung, and professionally set up.

This vintage Thomas TM-180 is a great example of the lesser-known Japanese acoustics coming out of the 1970s era. Built by Phoenix Gakki, the TM-180 features a striking cherry sunburst finish, decorative engraved pickguard, and a comfortable small-body design that makes it a joy to play.

The guitar is in excellent overall condition for its age and has been freshly serviced with low, comfortable action. The neck feels great, the frets show very little wear, and the guitar has a warm, balanced voice that works equally well for fingerstyle playing or light strumming.

Cosmetically, there are a few minor signs of age and use as expected from a vintage instrument, but nothing that detracts from its appearance or playability. The finish still presents beautifully and the guitar has clearly been well cared for over the years.
