Gone before we could even list it! Another powerhouse M1 from Michi Matsuda, here for your viewing and listening pleasure. The trebles on this guitar are like an instrument unto themselves, and they pair up sweetly with a popping bass and well-defined midrange. Playability is silky to boot, and Michi’s one-of-a-kind aesthetics make this M1 stand out in all the right ways. Premium Brazilian Rosewood back and sides, Adirondack Spruce top (we don’t see that everyday with Michi’s work), slotted headstock, and a unique carved heel and partial cutaway—the list goes on. Alas, this incredible feat of lutherie from 2005 sold before we were able to even wrap the listing! But we often know where to find other Matsudas, so if you’re in the market don’t hesitate to reach out.

This may be one of the best guitars I have ever played from Michi. And I have played many. It’s very rare to find a guitar with treble strings this full and alive. Magical on every fret. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
