Yamaha GRAND CONCERT GC-21 in almost mint condition

This Yamaha guitar made in Japan during the years 1984 -2008 is yet another great guitar introduced by Yamaha Corporation. It remains in almost mint condition. So is the condition of the hard foam case. The only “serious cosmetic problem” on its body is very shallow and not very conspicuous string burn below the bridge.

Since year 2014 most of Yamaha classical guitar models are made in China (not Taiwan anymore). including models GC22S and GC22C. Only highest end models are made at Yamaha's Hamamatsu workshop in Japan.

To my ear this guitar sounds beautifully enough to call a great guitar, with much higher replacement value that its retail price at any given moment in time. It is obvious to me, that any individual description of guitar’s the sound quality can have a different meaning to different people. It really depends on what are the other guitars being compared with the one that we are trying to describe. Depending on personal taste and ear sensitivity, the term “beautiful sound” can be imagined quite various ways. The same applies to loudness of guitar. Certain guitar can be very loud to one person, who played in the past much quieter one, while to someone else will describe the same guitar as being too quiet.

It is definitely one of those guitars with “replacement value” much higher than its retail price at any moment in time. You need to experience this guitar yourself to understand how much value they offer.

Calling this construction "laminates" would actually be very incorrect and quite misleading. This genuine Japanese invention has really nothing in common with modern era cheap particle-board laminates. This construction is nothing but 2 solid wood plates glued together, hence in fact nothing but reinforced solid woods. Such plates perform no different from solid woods, while don't crack as easily, are much easier to work with, and allow for much lower prices of these instruments. Such guitars have always been and still are a true blessing for all guitar enthusiasts with limited funds.

Action is set to 3.4 mm under E6 and 2.8 mm under E1.

This guitar will be shipped in lightly used hard polyfoam case in still excellent condition.

In order to ship a package with guitar to Australia at affordable rate +/- $150.00 (USPS International Priority Mail), length of such package can’t exceed 42” and its girth (2 x times width + 2 x height) + length can’t exceed total of 97”. If you want original or non-original hard shell case, the size of the package will qualify it only for USPS/Fedex Global Express Guaranteed  at $400.00 price.

Returns

If you are not happy with your purchase you may return the guitar for a refund of a purchase price of a guitar.  The cost of shipping both ways will not be refunded.

All you need to do is to:

1.    Notify me within 5 days after delivery   

2.    Pack guitar the same way I do it, using the same box and materials

3.    Ship it back to me within next 2 days

 

Another words I expect this “trail” period to occur within +/- 7 days. Naturally guitar has to be returned in the same condition as I ship it to you. This is simply honest offer for honest buyers. My goal is to make your purchase as risk free as possible. I know very well that spending $1000 of hard earned money is not emotionally easy undertaking for majority of guitar lovers. I am sure that reading my feedback can ease a bit your “purchase anxiety” but it still will be there no matter how hard I try.
