Morris / 1980s MG-601
This model carries on the legacy of the legendary “MG-100ST” signature model by Shinji Tanimura, who helped define the golden age of folk music.
The traditional vertical logo gleaming on the headstock and the elegant Western round-shoulder style evoke the nostalgia and atmosphere of that era the moment you hold it in your hands.
The body top features a luxurious solid spruce top, while the sides and back are crafted from Brazilian rosewood—a rare, legendary wood now strictly regulated by the Washington Convention and on the verge of disappearing from the face of the earth.
Furthermore, the fingerboard and bridge are crafted from striped ebony, a premium wood renowned for its exceptional hardness.
When combined with the Brazilian rosewood top, it produces a distinctive “tingling” nuance.
With vigorous chord strums, it fills the space with overwhelming sound pressure, while quiet arpeggios deliver a tone where each note conveys the poignancy of folk music.
It’s in excellent playing condition, and we confidently recommend this guitar to anyone seeking a high-quality Japanese-made instrument.
