GUEST,Guest from Canada Yasuma guitars (81* d) RE: Yasuma guitars 27 Jun 11

I bought a Yasuma Custom Model 130 Newance new with hardshell case in 1974 for $245. I still have it (thankfully)! I have maintained it but the nitrocellulose finish has yellowed. The sound is outstanding. The Yasuma was obviously a Martin copy. I have since bought a Martin D35. Does the Yasuma sound like it? No...and the finish is not as perfect but it was ten times less in price! These Yasuma guitars have a sound of their own and until you play one it is hard to describe. I'm glad I've kept mine and won't part with it because it is unique and for the most part unobtainable! Nice to hear others out there who have these fine instruments.
