Takeharu Guitars, by Kiso Suzuki Violin Company

Takeharu Guitars were a brand of the Kiso Suzuki Violin company made between 1973 and 1979. They were a result of a collaboration between composer Yamamoto Takeharu and the Kiso Suzuki Violin Company. What input Mr. Takeharu had in the design of the guitars is unknown, as well as why the relationship ended. But this much is known - the brand is well-liked by the owners.

The Takeharu brand guitar has a label signed with his first name “Yamamoto”

Yamamoto Takeharu (b. may 22, 1925) is a guitar player and composer who played a large part in the spread of the popularity of guitar music in Japan.
