Description
This is a 14"x5" snare drum from TAMA. The Mastercraft Artwood Birch model has been reproduced as a limited edition model for TAMA's 50th anniversary. The snare wire is the full-contact type that was mainstream at the time, and the strainer that controls it is a perfect reproduction of the "Roller Action Strainer" that was originally designed and developed by TAMA at the time. ■Mastercraft

from 20 reviewsVery quick mailing/delivery … packaged very thoroughly with abundance of bubble wrap 👍 the item in pristine condition… very easy and professional transaction… all the way from Japan even! Would definitely do business with them again.

Have done some test, love Takatsuki and also very responsive and trusted seller! Already bought 4 300b's of them and tested well with my RoeTest v11 professional tube Tester!

I bought this guitar and I am very happy with it. It had to travel half of the globe, but the shipping was fast and the seller answered all my questions via e-mail.
The guitar itself has a chunky Fretboard, but is playable with ease. As far I can tell, the electronics seem to be all good, stamp on the pickup is right, it needs more playing for further statements.
And to my biggest surprise: the guitar came almost perfectly intonated fresh out of box.
I highly recommend to at least get in touch with the seller if you're interested in one of his products.
