The Kohno Pro-J or 'Professional' model is a world-class instrument designed by Masaru Kohno and built now by his Nephew and long time master luthier Masaki Sakurai. The construction is top-notch, as is the playability. In fact it is their playability that has made them highly sought after. With a very precise neck and fretwork the action is very even and player-friendly. This one is Brazilian Rosewood and Cedar and fully alive and ready to make beautiful music.

Player Reviews:
"I've long been a fan of Kohno guitars and the Pro-J in particular. With top notch woods and craftsmanship they are just hard to beat. This preowned beauty plays great and has a clear, rich tone." - Paul Heumiller
"The name Kohno has been associated with high quality classical guitars for as long as I can remember. Very nice tone with the cedar top and Brazilian back and sides." - Al Petteway
