Description

ONE(1) 1970 MIGUEL COMPANY (LUTHIER -MIAMI - DIED 1998) MODEL M-200 CLASSICAL GUITAR, SERIAL #495, WITH NEWER HARD CASE. NOTE: WE ARE ORIGINAL OWNERS. THIS IS OUR FAMILY OWNED GUITAR/ THERE IS A DEMO FILE ON YOUTUBE AT: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/kG_kjAb9Qbg THE GUITAR WAS PURCHASED IN MIAMI IN 1970 BEFORE CHRISTMAS. THE GUITAR HAS A SPRUCE TOP, AND MAPLE SIDES AND BACK. IT HAS A SOLID BLACK EBONY FRETBOARD, AND MAHAGONY NECK WITH ROSEWOOD BRIDGE AND ABALONE BRIDGE APPOINTMENT. THE GUITAR HAS A BROWN BINDING. THE BACK IS A TWO PIECE. THE GUITAR IS RATED FOR CONCERT (MIGUEL WOULD BLACK OUT THE LABEL IF NOT CONCERT LEVEL). THE STRING HEIGHT AT THE 12TH FRET BASE IS 3/32" AND THE TREBLE IS 2/32". THE GUITAR PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY, WITH RICH TONE ONLY GOTTEN FROM AN AGED (54 YEARS AND COUNTING) SPRUCE TOP. THE GUITAR WAS REFRETTED IN ORLANDO JUST PRIOR TO 2000. AT THAT TIME IT ALSO RECEIVED A NEW SET OF TUNERS. (NOTE: THE ORIGINAL TUNERS ARE PICTURED AND INCLUDED WITH THE SALE.) THE GUITAR WAS ALSO REPAIRED ON THE SEAM OF THE TOP THAT HAD SLIGHTLY SEPERATED FROM THE ROSETTE TO THE BUTT OF THE GUITAR. (NOTE: AFTER THE REPAIR THE TOP HAS BEEN PERFECTLY SOLID, NO VIBRATIONS, NO BUZZES, IN BEAUTIFUL SOUNDING RESONANT SHAPE!) APPARANTLY THE TOP DRIED A BIT, AND NEEDED THE REPAIR. THERE HAVE BEEN NO OTHER REPAIRS NEEDED, AS THE ENTIRE GUITAR IS TIGHT, AND LOUD, WITH A WONDERFUL DEEP RESONANT BASE TONE, AND BALANCED CLEAR TREBLE TONES. 54 YEARS OF AGING SURE MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE!!!! THE GUITAR HAS TOP WEAR CONSISTANT WITH TAPPING WITH FINGER TIPS LEAVING TOP FINISH MARKS. THE GUITAR ALSO HAS VARIOUS SCRATCHES, AND NICKS AS PICTURED. MOST ARE ON THE TOP, AS THE BACK IS VERY CLEAN OF ANY BUT MINOR SURFACE SCRATCHES. I TRIED TO TAKE PICTURES SHOWING THE MORE VISIBLE TOP MARKS, AND HEADSTOCK SCRATCH. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SOUNDING, VERY RARE MIGUEL COMPANY GUITAR MADE BY HAND BY THE MASTER HIMSELF. SINCE NO ONE IN THE FAMILY PLAYS ANY GUITAR ANYMORE, WE ARE SELLING, AND PUTTING THIS BEAUTY BACK INTO USE. IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD NOT TO BE PLAYED!!!!!
