That was my first "real" guitar. I spent many hours while in high
school with my Matsuoka. That was the guitar, however, that the case
took three big bites out of at one time. I finally sold it, but I
would highly recommend the instrument for an intermediate level
guitar. I would think a price of around $800 or so would be good if it
is in good shape.

I think that's a little on the high side. Matsuoka made a lot of different
models. He even made the Rubin Flores guitars and a few other names. But, $800
seems a little on the high side for a Md-20

The Ryoji Matsuoka series were classical guitars that were hand made in
Japan. There were threee series, all with slotted heads adn some with a
carved in design. The Convert series included the M20 (spruce top, nato
neck), M30 (solid psruce top, mahogany neck), M40 (solid psruce top,
mahogany neck) and all had rosewood bodies and fingerboards. The Artist
Series included the M50 and M60 with aged spruce tops, Jacaranda bodies,
ebony fingerboards and mahogany neck. The Old World Artisan Series included
the M70 and M80, with "traditional one-piece Spanish classic neck
construction", seasoned solid psruce tops, Jacaranda bodies, ebony
fingerboards and mahogany necks. The M60 and M80 were also advertised as
coming with "additional refinements"

I must agree. I have not actually seen a Matsuoka for many years and I
am not familiar with all the different models. Thanks for the
clarificationa and my apologies for any inaccurate information.
