Handsome as only Michi Matsuda can make it, with a voice like velvet on the ears. This 2013 M1 is a well-oiled fingerstyle machine, the very image of the modern flattop with top notch tonewoods and Michi’s unique aesthetic to tie it all together. (Gorgeous) Brazilian Rosewood back and sides pair up with an Italian Spruce top and an appointment package of arcing purflings and an interrupted, segmented rosette. A thing of beauty.
The trebles are characterized by weightiness and depth, and really ring out. Overtones are lush and replete across the registers. It responds especially well to a fingerstylist’s touch; DADGAD and even C9 are both exquisite on the 25.25” scale.
Includes brand new Hoffee carbon fiber flight case

I simply love Michi Matsuda‘s work. This guitar has a deep warmth in the mid range that is captivating to me. As I played fingerstyle there’s a very unique depth that is chocolatey and warm. Of course the details and craftsmanship are spellbinding, after all that’s what Michi does. | Scale Length | 25.25 in |
