Theguitar is a 1971 Romanillo, the Stradivarius of guitars. That year,Romanillo, the father, made only two guitars. Yutaro has one, andRomanillo himself has the other. Romanillo stopped making guitars someyears ago, so this guitar is a rare piece. It was first purchased byJulian Bream, a guitar instructor from the UK.He later under sold it thinking that Romanillo would make more guitarsin the future and he could pick one up. Well, as it turned out,Romanillo stopped making guitars and his son took up the business ofmaking guitars. Now, Romanillo guitars carry the label "Romanillo &Sons." Yutaro's guitar is one of the last "Romanillo" label guitars.
Yutarojust had it refurbished by a museum where he had been keeping it. It isin tip top condition. Romanillo & Sons guitars sell for between 3.8million JPY (rosewood) and 6.5 million JPY (hakarand).
Yutaro'sguitar is made out of hakarand so it could sell for over 6.5 millionJPY, since it is an authentic Romanillo label guitar.
