Someone is asking me about the approximate value of a 1979 Kohno guitar. Up until now, I'd never heard of one. Any thoughts? Thanks |

There are different models, e.g,. 20, 30 , 50. They also came in Braziian Rosewood or Idian Rosewood. The last model 30s in BRW being sold after Kohno died were listed about $7,000 new. A used BRW 30 recently sold on ebay for about $3,500, which I think is a little under priced. Below is a link to a Model 8 in Indian Rosewood listed on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Masaru-Kohno-Cl ... 1e6ea2da72 |

Here is a link to the Classical Guitar Salon with an article and a short bio: http://www.guitarsalon.com/articles.php?articleid=8 Kohno's guitars are well respected amongst classical guitar players and are in the hands of many famous players. A quick search for transacted sales establishes a fairly high value on his instruments. |

If the string length is longer than 650mm it will affect the value in a negative direction. |
