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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCosmetically, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Model: TM-180 \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Made in Japan \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Phoenix Gakki manufacture \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cherry Sunburst finish \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rosewood fingerboard \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dot inlays \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Decorative engraved pickguard \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Vintage open-gear tuners \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fresh strings \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Professionally cleaned and set up \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clean, great-playing vintage Japanese acoustic that stands out from the crowd and offers plenty of character without the price tag of the more commonly known MIJ brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCase: Chipboard Case\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale Length: 25.25“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNut Width: 1.7“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFret Wear: 9.9\/10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAction at 12F (6th): .1“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAction at 12F (1st): .07“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight: 3lbs 10oz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOverall Condition: 9\/10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSound Factor: 11 out of 10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUSA Seller, check my feedback to see how I value my customers and see my other listings for more rare Japanese Guitars and other unique gear!
