Comments | Here’s a well played, 1982 Hirade Master Arte Model 7 Classical guitar. Hirade guitars are built by Takamine in Japan as their top-range classical instruments, and this example is signed by master luthier, Mass Hirade. This guitar has been used as its builders intended. It’s been played, and yes, you can see it in the natural play wear — and you can definitely hear it in its full, rich, open voice. It speaks clearly with plenty of volume and articulation. |
