I have been thinking about this designer for some time 

how to honor what is presented in front of you?

Michihiro Matsuda talks about "base" model guitars

but they are by no means standard

let's have a look at a few of them.

Matsuda acoustic guitars

 cutaway. nothing much to look at here. but upon closer inspection,

look at the shape of the body. something different here.

now we have this. really amazing cutaway. plus there is something interesting about the strap holder on the neck join.

then the flamenco model. traditional tuners but the unique cutaway and the strap holder looks like it is designed for a specific purpose.

then there is the parlor guitar. extra sound hole. look at the headstock. 

Is a headstock ergonomic? It is now.

the next installment will be soon

in the meantime
