Salvador Ibanez / Arch Top / 1959 / Guitar

Summary of guitar

 

 

Ibanez arch top from our early Japanese guitar archive, this is the only one around.

 

It is a special guitar for many reasons.

 

Probably made by Suzuki Violin Co. in association with FujiGen Gakki who were just beginning to make acoustic guitars around late 50's to early 60's when this piece was made.

 

Neck angle good, no issues.

 

Tone is balanced and airy, lacks the volume of a larger archtop but more than makes up for that with the uniquity of being such a rare piece of Japanese guitar history.

 

Excellent for year, some weatherings commensurate with a near 70 year old guitar and as pictured

 

Action low

 

All original 

 

Original case also rare 

 

 

Body dimensions

 

Upper bout 10”

 

Lowe bout 14 1/2"

 

Body length 17"

 

 

Very rare piece you will not see another!
