Description

-Japan Tune-up Series-

I hear that professional guitarists don't use the guitar they buy as is, but first take it to a trusted repairman to have it adjusted to their preferred settings before going on stage.
Veterans familiar with the guitar will even file the nuts on their own guitars, adjusting them until they achieve the playing feel they prefer.
They know that a solid setting that suits the player will have a direct impact on their guitar playing.
The Headway Japan Tune-up series is a cost-effective series in which guitars assembled in Asian factories are literally tuned up by craftsmen in Headway's domestic workshops to transform them into more user-friendly and sophisticated guitars.
Like Headway's higher-end models, it uses the ``dovetail joint'' and ``rear-mounted neck'' techniques, which require high processing precision.
It also comes standard with a strap pin on the heel and is equipped with a FISHMAN preamp.
The guitars have been meticulously designed to ensure a comfortable playing experience for all users, and are a lineup that we can confidently recommend not only to beginners who are just starting to play guitar, but also as a second guitar for advanced players.

This model, the HSJ-5130SE/A-FMH-C, features an all-flame mahogany body and the popular small jumbo shape.
The small jumbo shape has a deep body and long scale, but is easy to hold, and is characterized by deep low frequencies and powerful, well-balanced volume.
The body is made of flame mahogany, which has a beautiful grain, and produces a rich mid-range sound.
The rosette and purfling are lavishly studded with abalone, the fingerboard design is simple, and it is also beveled, giving it a luxurious look and comfortable playability.
Equipped with a Fishman pickup system, this guitar is ready for immediate use on stage!
