The guitar for sale is a "Kiku" (Chrysanthemum) by Yusaku Mokuhara, a guitar maker who was active in Nagoya in the 1960s. Recently, guitars by Mr. Mokuhara have become scarce and are rarely seen. Mr. Mokuhara was a solitary guitar maker who diligently honed his guitar-making skills through self-study. Each of his works has a handwritten ink label, and a series of single-character names such as "Azusa," "Kiku," "Hagi," and "Kozue" remain. The guitar is characterized by its light, thin materials that provide strength and ease of handling. The offered piece appears to be from the mid-1960s, making it a guitar of sixty years of age, but it is in relatively good condition. The top is made of tight-grained spruce, the sides and back are made of beautiful zebrawood with rare stripes, often used in high-end furniture, the neck is made of hard mahogany, the fingerboard is dark brown rosewood, and the bridge appears to be quarter-sawn zebrawood. The acoustic effect of the spruce and zebrawood produces a gorgeous, vibrant, and rich tone. Also, strings for trial playing are already installed, so you can start playing immediately. For all guitar enthusiasts, please consider this rare and valuable handmade guitar, "Kiku," by Yusaku Mokuhara, which is now sixty years old.
