"Rich Lows and Crisp, Clear Highs Around a Solid Middle Response"

1998 Tacoma PM-15

This absolutely mint 14 3/4 inch wide, 4 7/8 inch-deep, 'classical-style' guitar weighs just 4.20 lbs. X-braced spruce top, mahogany back and sides. Marquetry and white binding on the top, single-ply white binding on the back. 3 7/8 inch diameter sound-hole with eleborate abalone ring. Mahogany neck with a classical nut width of just over 1 3/4  inches, a scale length of 25 3/4 inches and a medium profile. Rosewood faced headstock with individual Gotoh 'Rotomatic' style tuners with oval metal buttons and "Tacoma" inlaid in light tan. Specific-shaped black truss-rod cover secured by three screws. Single-bound rosewood fretboard with 20 jumbo frets and black dot side-markers. Transparent plastic pickguard. Pre-compensated bone bridge saddle on specific-shaped rosewood base with six white pins with pearloid dots. Inside the sound-hole is the Takoma Washington label with the model number "PM-15" and serial number "B0140110" written in black ink. This beautiful one-owner guitar - under the bed for twenty-four years is in near mint (9.25++) condition with just some very minor discoloration to the binding on the back. Housed in the original four-latch, shaped black hardshell case with pale orange plush lining (9.25++). Complete with the original Tacoma Lifetime Plus Warranty hang-tag. This PM-15 is impressive, even amazing when you consider that it costs a lot less than a Taylor or a Martin. This is one really loud guitar, but with an even tonal response; rich lows and crisp, clear highs around a solid middle response.
