1996 Takamine FP360SC Cutaway Dreadnought Acoustic/Electric Guitar

Japanese-made Takamines were the bee's knees back in the '90s when good, solid, acoustic-electric guitars were in high demand and not always easy to come by. They were all over stages and television at the time. This one is a quintessential '90s Tak as it's a cutaway dreadnought and features "woodsy" or "folksy" trim in its rosette and backstrip. I like the style of these guitars -- they're a bit like a more-relaxed Taylor in presence, feel, and looks.

Anyhow, post-repairs this one's ready to go back out into the fray. It has just enough wear and tear to make it a friendly companion and has opened-up nicely into a full-sounding guitar.

Repairs included: a fret level/dress, hairline crack repair (cleats and fill) to a crack below the bridge on the top, cleaning, and setup.

Condition notes: it has average usewear (small scritchy-scratch, pickwear at the soundhole, minor scuffs, etc.) throughout and then a hairline crack on the top below the bridge that has been repaired and is ready to go. Otherwise it's fairly clean and has been kept well. The saddle is on the lower side but it plays spot-on and has been stable in service.

It comes with: an old brown hard case.
