I thankfully own a Takamine, Yasuma and a Cats Eyes - all Japanese and made in the early '70s. They are all Martin D-10 look alikes and sound real sweet.
Just scored an Angelica (Made in Japan) and it has a great sound and is well made - have to say that a man can't own (and love) enough circa early 70s Japanese made guitars.
