Bought the guitar today at a flea market. Brought it home (on the bike: guitar in one hand, the other on the handlebar - there was an old case, but it smelled rather musty), cleaned it, treated it with care oil, changed strings and recorded the study with my mobile phone.
What a great find, Willie. Those old Japanese guitars are usually built on par with their American counterparts. It sounds great even with the cellphone recording. Really nice chord progression too.

Sounds really good!
This has been on my soundcloud for some time (BIAB backing track):
The unusual contrast of the gypsy sounding lead guitar and the jazz club style "band" adds character to this fine sophisticated tune.
