井田英夫 (Hideo Ida) C-20 1978

Hideo Ida C-20 1978

Classical guitar luthier Hideo Ida studied guitar making under the late Sakazo Nakade, a member of Japan's prestigious Nakade clan, and inherited traditional designs and methods.After becoming independent, we received praise from Jose Luis González and Andres Segovia, and have produced guitars from standard models to special orders and prototypes using a custom-made method that reflects the requests of our clients.

The model that has arrived this time is "C-20", manufactured in 1978.The label has "HIDEO IDA", model name, year of manufacture, and signature.

"C-20" is one of his standard models, with 19 frets and a scale of 650mm.This one seems to use spruce for the top, rosewood for the sides and back, and ebony for the fingerboard.

As each guitar is handmade, it is a high-quality Japanese classical guitar brand that is comfortable to play in Japanese hands and has a delicate tone that is very attractive and gives you a sense of security.
If you are looking for it, please hurry.
