    I own a basically mint condition Suzuki F-130 acoustic guitar. It has a serial number on the inside and says Suzuki Three-S. I was wondering if anyone had information on when this guitar was made and what it is made out of etc… I got it in the mid 70’s but it wasn’t new then. Any suggestions on web-sites to visit would be great. Also, I’m considering selling it on eBay along with a hard-case – any idea on what to expect 2468809 wise? Thanks in advance.

      I have owned about 7 or 8 Suziki guitars over the years and they are without a doubt the most underrated guitars from the 70’s and early 80’s. You don’t see many of the Suzuki Three-s out there for sale. Mainly because anyone who plays and owns one has kept it. Even the entry guitars made by Suzuki are decent guitars. The F-130 was made with the Three-s on the headstock and just Suzuki and both are excellent sounding guitars with the right set-up and strings. We hear a lot about “Lawsuit” guitars. None were ever taken to court. Martin usually sent a letter to the makers that copied the style of Martins name on the headstock. Like Takamine and Suzuki. The key is that Martin only wrote the letters to those guitar makers who made really good guitars that sounded great. I personally wouldn’t sell any of my Suzuki guitars. The only guitars that come close to the quality and sound are the very popular early Yamaha FG series red label guitars. There is a lot of articles on the Suzuki guitars now as they are becoming more sought after.
