Vintage Acoustic Guitar

For your consideration is this nice Vintage Ventura V-23 Bruno Hummingbird. It
has a solid spruce top with red stained maple back and sides. These were produced in
Japan in the 60's and 70's.  These were a copy of the Gibson
Dove or Hummingbird.  The pick guard is crystalizing from the years and has a few cracks but the rest of
it is strongly intact. There are no cracks or splits on this guitar and
I dont see any place where there were any repairs on it. The bridge has a little space but it hasn't changed any in the last year of playing.  There are some
light scuffs on the side of the upper bout from the chipboard case. As far as tone
goes..this sounds great. It has a nice loud warm tone to it with
brilliant trebles.  The strings are new Martin SP. The neck is straight and the frets have quite a bit of "meat" left on them. I believe the
fretboard may be Brazilian..it sure looks like it..but not 100%
positive. This guitar has a great vibe to it. There are many great
reviews on this hard to find Ventura on the web:
