This beautiful Asturias AST-50 is a Japanese hand-made classical guitar from the 1980s. The guitar is a concert class instrument with excellent volume and sustain, wide dynamic range, well balanced trebles and basses.
The guitar is in excellent condition and has been very well kept, especially considering its age. The finish is clear with small scratches on the body and head stock as shown in photos.
Asturias guitars have gained widespread acclaim internationally for their exceptional tone and quality of craftsmanship. Produced at the same small workshop in Kurume, Japan, the team comprises approximately 10 highly skilled craftsmen, each capable of independently crafting a guitar. Since 1981, the workshop has been under the leadership of master luthier Wataru Tsuiji.
