USED MEIKO ASTURIAS / Herringbone Concert Natural [11]

A Herringbone Concert from the MEIKO ASTURIAS era.

It features a body believed to be Grand Concert size, combining a solid spruce top with rosewood-type sides and back. With its distinctive silhouette created by the Florentine cutaway, herringbone inlay around the body’s perimeter, and unique inlays on the ebony fingerboard, this instrument boasts a design that differs from current ASTURIAS models and is sure to catch the eye.

Inside the soundhole, a label reading “Herringbone Concert MEIKO ASTURIAS” can be seen, and the serial number is 19458. It is believed to have been manufactured around the early 1990s.

This is a Japanese-made, handcrafted guitar featuring specifications and aesthetics unique to the MEIKO ASTURIAS era that are not found in current models.
There is a general clouding of the finish across the sides and back of the body.
There are also signs of wear, such as minor scratches, dents, and tarnished parts.
