Quick background: This guitar was recently given to me by a relative.
Supposedly it was brought over from Japan by a soldier. It appears to have had a rough life, but made it to me in playable condition.
Someone obviously "converted" it to a six-string, the bridge-work is shoddy at best, haha.
I have never seen an acoustic with this type of bridge system...I don't even know what to call it. Pretty unique and seems to give the guitar a unique sound. Another interested thing is there is no serial number. Appears as though there never was one. The label is damaged, but the model number is 6814.
According to the Aria Database it's from 1977.
What can you tell me about this vintage axe?
