1980s Takamine G330 Dreadnought Guitar

Overview: This D-18 copycat is a practical, all-ply, take-anywhere sort-of guitar. It's likely early '80s but is of a style that the brand started making in Japan in the late '70s. It's got a decent, balanced sound and will suit flatpickers and fingerpickers equally-well. These old Takamines are popular whenever they're in the shop as they've got a bit of a vintage-obsessed following, these days.

Repairs included: As I recall, it got a bridge reglue, cleaning, and setup work. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.
