Is there any record of Haruo producing nylon string guitars?
I believe I've located one. The label is torn but it looks like the last two letters are "UO".
The model is an "80-N"
_thanks in advance

Sad to hear of the death of a genius. I wish I could get the old guitar out to play something in his memory but a year of pounding on the keyboard in pursuit of a master degree has left me with carpal tunnel and poor control of some of the fingers on both hands.

I am currently working on a bio of Terada, both Haruo and his brother Masao.

After reading all the positive reviews, I bought a t haruo 80 that was listed on ebay for $399. I normally would never buy a guitar without first playing it(I'm pretty picky), but after reading so many great things, I just had to get it. Am I brainwashed? lol

I hope I did the right thing..

well i bid on a haruo 12 string on ebasy and went to bed, i won! it came todayand i have to say it is special. it was under fout hundred bucks with shipping and plays better and sounds better than thre guild i had years ago. thanks to this list i got one. i had never heard of haruo before, so it was a usefull education.

i tuned it a tone below standard to start with but it certainly shows no trouble. i have a 12 string capo from my old guild and i used on my yamaha to get to pitch.

i am really impressed with the sound, playability all the wayn up the neck and the workmanship. good action is particularly nice as i finger pick the twevle most of the time--it really is the way to go-- but tough action up the neck is the bane if 12 string finger pickers.

this rivals the ted thompson 12 i played in toronto at twelveth frett, which i thought was the best 12 i had played in years, so thanaks for thew heads up. i great guitar i can afford

I think I was one of the first to get my t-20 at sam ash in Hempstead. I have had mine for 34 years . I took it out today after playing my Martin HD28. It was still in perfect tune., umlike my martin which had to be tuned slightly. I look at both and se very little difference. inside the braces are almost identical. sound wise I think maybe a little less bright, but that could be the strings, a little less chunk,probably the slightest difference in wood and looks wise I actually think all the abalone inserts are nicer on the Haruo. I own both and would say for $2500 less the Haruo was a bargain.

Is now a good time to sell with the new Celebration ones coming out?
Mine is in excellent condition, no fret wear and I can't find a mark or scratch on it and it also has a hardshell case.

I have a T. Harou six string model T.10 that I bought from a lady in the early 90's. I have always wondered about it because you don't have to be an expert to know that there is something special about the way this thing feels, plays and sounds. I have always loved it and I'm with those who won't part with theirs. I don't have any idea what its worth but to me its worth a great deal more than the one hundred dollars I paid for it. Thank you for starting this thread. I will be watching to see if if you hear anything from the man himself. At the very least I hope someone will tell him that there are people out there who recognize and appreciate his work before he passes on.

That is such marvellous news although it is sad that he is not well. I don't think I have any specific questions as such. I would just love to hear more about his life and any technical information he can remember. Most of all I want to be able to thank him from the bottom of my heart for the years of sheer pleasure playing one of his beautiful instruments has given me. Well done finding him.

T.Haruo has been located!! With Dee Tatum leading the hunt, Haruo Terada .. aka .. T. Haruo has been located living quietly in a small town in Kanie, Japan. HARUO TERADA is the man who is responsible for the Haruo brand of guitars. Yoshi Iida, Iida Corp., located the Haruo luthier this week end. Haruo, 83, is presently sick and hospitalized. Dee is trying to set an online interview with Mr Terada as soon as he is able. With that, we are taking questions that you'd like to ask Mr Haruo himself. Pose the questions thru this webpage:

In the late 70's T. Haruo had left Yamaha, where he was a master luthier, and attempted to put his own signature line into the American market. Some pieces had been sold via wholesalers in earlier 70's, but Haruo himself travelled in USA late 70's. His desire to build the best acoustic guitar possible differed from Yamaha's desire to build affordable guitars for the masses - hence they eventually parted. One of the final stops Haruo made was to St. Louis Music Supply, who owned distribution and brand rights to Alvarez Guitars, Crate Amps, etc. They passed on getting involved with the Haruo line - maybe it was the conflict with their own Alvarez line - I don't know. Before leaving Haruo left a Model 150 with one of the sales managers. I bought it from him in 1983. Today, 26 years later, people still freak out over the warmth and sound of my Model 150. It is still breathtaking. When the strings are replaced and fresh - it almost makes you want to cry. I have played Martins, Taylors, Rainsongs, Gibsons, Larivees, etc and on and on. I have yet to meet a guitar on this planet which sounds better than my Haruo, which I paid $200 for. A contributing factor to this sound is certainly the Jacaranda - the back and sides are made from a glorious cut of Jacaranda with gold streaks, brown waves, dark almost black ripples, and rich chocolate swirls - wood that is no longer available to luthiers or anyone for that matter. I honestly believe that it is not a case where Haruo has improved on CF Martins design and brilliance - he simply stumbled upon a tonewood that we may or may not ever see or hear again.

I bought my first T. Haruo in 1979 in Singapore for around $150-180US. I was 15, and an exchange student in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The guitar traveled and lived with me until 1993, when I was "carjacked" at 2am after a gig in Chicago. They went straight for the backseat: in retrospect, the thieves probably followed me from the gig. I pulled the keys from the ignition and started to run after them- my passenger yelled sense into me and I stopped- but the Haruo was gone.

Nothing else sounded like that guitar.

I believe it was actually a Model 10 six string- though in the web info I have found, people have only talked about Model 10 twelve string guitars.

Then in 2007, on a whim, I checked Ebay and bought a Model 50- it was my first Ebay purchase, and I won. In 2008, I found a Model 60 (with the 3 piece D35 back). I play them both, all the time. New friends are consistently stunned by the Haruo's sound and feel.

So I always wonder if a Model 10 six string will turn up someplace...

Thank you all for keeping the Haruo info flowing. Peace.

Hey Mei,

I might know someone who would want to buy it. I'm in California and so is the individual but that might be all right. Do you have any pictures of it? Or can you take some and send them to me. My friend is always complimenting me on mine and how much he likes it and I know he's in the market for a new guitar anyway.

Let me know as soon as possible.

I'm in Kansas right now.

If that's the case, I'm going to ask for about the same price.

I'd regret selling it for anything less.

Not too many people know about Haruos so its tough to ask a big price from regular people if they don't know much about them. You might have some luck on this posting board though...ya never know. I paid about 350 for mine. Some people have paid more for theirs, some would be willing to pay a lot more for theirs. Just depends on the person at the right time.

Where are you located?

Recently, I've inherited a Haruo T-20 6 string from my father.

At this moment, I'm debating if I am going to sell it or keep it for it's sentimental value. If I sell it, I'm planning to buy an electric instead.

So, what I want to know is, what would be a good asking price for it?

I don't really know what to ask for it, it's in perfect condition, it only needs some new strings, which im going to buy later this week.

Thanks!

Just thought I'd add to the post...

I too know nothing about my Haruo.

All it says on the label inside is Handcrafted 1976. With Haruo's signature and Model #50, no serial number or anything.

I've seen pictures of other people's guitars and their labels but never a Model# 50.

I bought this guitar back in 99 I think...from Cartwright's music shop in Stayton Oregon. Just a small local store in a small town. He had it originally listed for approximately $650. He was closing down shop so a lot of stuff was on sale and I got my Haruo for $300 or so with a hard case. I played it and fell in love with it. This shopowner sold mostly high end instruments and said it was one of the best sounding guitars he had there, comparable to Martin.

I love it, it gets played almost daily. Whenever my guitarist friends come over and play on it, it gets complimented on every time. I'll never part with the thing.

If you wanna hear the Haruo in action go to

www.myspace.com/nonstophealing

The first song that comes up is with the Haruo. Don't worry about the lyrics and singing...my buddies just decided to do some freestyle singing late at night after some drinks, haha. Wasn't recorded the best but you can hear the guitar well.

I just bought a T Haruo 80.   appears to be of Indian rosewood (solid) with Tree of life. The previous owner put a sound hole pickup (old, not sure of the name).   Can't wait for a set of strings and an amp. Beautiful guitar.   

Will sumit pics later.   Paid $500.00 out the door (pawnshop).
