[Profile]
Saburo Nogami apprenticed himself to Masaru Kohno in 1959 and continued his studies and production at Masaru Kohno's workshop until early 1970. After becoming independent, Saburo Nogami began to produce not only classical guitars, but also lutes, vihuelas, and other ancient instruments, as well as alto guitars and other guitars for ensembles.
His long-standing collaboration with the Niibori Conservatory began around the same time, and he was responsible for making guitars for ensembles. In parallel with this, he focused on promoting introductory guitars and also established a long cooperative relationship with K. Yairi Guitars, contributing to the development of the K. Yairi classical guitar.
[Description]
This is a 1990 model made by Saburo Nogami. The soundboard is made of red cedar with an impressive red color, and the back and sides are made of Jacaranda.
The rosette design is based on Jose Luis Romanillos' mosque design, and the headstock shape is the so-called Torres type. There is one crack repair from the bridge to the bottom, along with a rather large ding repair and crack reinforcement. The back has one crack at the top of the body and one crack on both sides of the bottom.
