From the listing
We have received a used KAWAKAMI GUITARS OMC-3S. This cutaway model comes from a brand that has garnered attention for being used by many famous players, including Ritchie Blackmore. It features a solid Lutz spruce top and Indian rosewood sides and back. The fingerboard and bridge are made of ebony. It has a 44mm nut width and a 645mm scale length. The OMC-3S is characterized by its thick, resonant strings and a unique sound featuring brilliant overtones and power, making it an excellent choice for fingerpicking and solo guitar. The high notes project well, producing a smooth and seamless sound without sacrificing power, and it delivers optimal tone for lead playing and arpeggios. Repairs have been made to the gap caused by the bridge coming loose, and the frets have been leveled. The label inside the soundhole has been removed. There are dents and fine scratches throughout the body. The neck condition is fine; the truss rod has approximately 90 degrees of adjustment remaining in the tightening direction, and the string height is set low at approximately 2.2 mm at the 12th fret on the 6th string. This string height is appropriate for both playability and sound. Condition Grade: B+ Country of Manufacture: Japan Truss Rod: Approximately 60 degrees in the tightening direction Neck Condition: No issues Frets: 80% remaining Case: Original hard case Condition: B+: Some minor scratches, but no issues for normal use Case: Hard case Truss Rod: No issues; checked up to 60 degrees left and right with no problems Fret Wear: Within normal range; fret height is sufficient for playing String Height (Low String Side): 2.1 mm at the 12th fret String Height (Treble Side): 1.8 mm at the 12th fret Strings at Setup: D'Addario EJ-16 / .012-.053 set Repairs/Maintenance: Cleaning, string replacement, truss rod adjustment, leveling, bridge filling * As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, and other imperfections that are not visible in the photos or not
