Yamaha GC-7S Concert Classical Guitar circa 1976
Beautifully sounding grand concert guitar. It can put to shame many high end and very expensive guitars.
Very balanced tone. Nice, punchy midrange, just enough of high end and warm, rich basses.
Built and signed by Shuhiro Harada - one of the most talented Yamaha Custom Shop luthiers of the 70s.
The condition of this guitar is unbelievable considering it's 47 years old.
It's in great condition considering the age with very few minor signs of use that can only be seen up close.
The visible blemishes or discolorations on the sides is not damage. It's the finish itself, which remains smooth and clean. In regular lighting, these features are less pronounced than they appear in the pictures. The origin of these characteristics is unknown. Those marks often appear on Yamaha guitars from the late 1970s but they do not affect performance in any way.
The guitar has been kept in a room with humidity set to 50% at 25 degrees (75F).
The action is medium low, comfortable to play.
