P.S

This Ryoji Matsukoa has a solid spruce top, that is why we are describing it as a D-50, lesser models like the D-40 are not usually solid tops

Most D-40 models have a laminated soundboard, including the other D-40 for sale on eBay currently, which we actually sold earlier for around £200, and in good faith.

The re-seller of that guitar is now using our photo's to sell the guitar despite leaving negative feedback on Reverb.com, and after obtaining a refund for the guitar.

Thank you to all of our genuine customers.

This is a very rare CSL branded, Ryoji Matsuoka made, guitar

There is a crack in the neck volute, very straightforward repair, without this fault the value is around double the asking price, hence it is a worthy project.

Selling as spares/repairs, this will make a very fine guitar.

Good luck!
