1970s Bruno Ventura 1585 Classical Guitar

This is a fairly no-frills, Japanese-made classical guitar from the early '70s. It's similar to period Yamaha classicals in that it's made from thin ply throughout the body, has a wide "Spanish-style" nut and neck style, and has a good, full sound that cuts above its station. I like these as "folk-strummer" or "folk-fingerpicker" guitars in the '60s-style, bare-fingers or fingernails sense.

This one has been played-in "just so" to have become a friendly, inviting instrument to have around.

Repairs included: a fret level/dress, cleaning, restring, and setup. It also got a bolt sunk into the neck to reinforce the two-piece neck joint build from the factory -- which had separated and got a reglue.

Condition notes: it's in good order throughout save a small patch of filler on the back of the heel "cap" area and some pickwear to the top in the usual area south of the soundhole. The finish shows mild scratches, scuffs, small dings, and whatnot throughout the body, too, but overall looks nice. 

It comes with: sorry, no case.
