USED ASTRONAUTS GUITARS / Herringbone Concert Natural [11]

An OM-style cutaway model featuring a spruce top, rosewood sides and back, and an ebony fingerboard

This acoustic guitar is crafted by ASTRONAUTS GUITARS, a Japanese luthier-led brand. It features a classic configuration of a spruce top with rosewood sides and back, paired with a mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard. It offers a well-balanced combination of quick attack, clear highs, and full-bodied mid-to-low frequencies; it stands out for its expansive resonance during strumming and excellent note separation during fingerstyle playing.

With a long scale length of approximately 643 mm, it offers string tension and response similar to an OM-style guitar, ensuring robust volume and a clear tonal image. The medium-sized body is comfortable to hold and offers excellent playability, making it easy to handle regardless of your playing style.

The exterior features a classic look with herringbone inlay, complemented by a slightly angular Florentine cutaway that balances playability in the higher positions with aesthetic appeal. The meticulous attention to detail, characteristic of a luthier-crafted instrument, is another appealing feature.
There is some clouding of the finish visible across the entire side and back of the body.
There are also signs of wear, such as minor scratches, dents, and discoloration on the parts.
Since dents were observed on the frets, they have been refaced.
The neck is in good condition, and the guitar plays well.
