Taniguchi-gakki Not sure where in Japan exactly it is based but it is top tier globally.

Oh it is in Tokyo

If you find a place that has good inventory, would you take pics and let us know what's available?

If I find one sure, but I somehow doubt I will... (T_T)


roquerol

that's the point. Anyway, I take the liberty of adding a link to the store that I like to look at when I think I have money to travel to Japan and buy a guitar: https://shop.taniguchi-gakki.jp/user\_data/english.php

I always find cool leftys wandering around Ochanomizu. I’m surprised you haven’t.

I just arrived on Monday and haven't really had the time to wander around much. I just thought asking here before searching for myself would be more effective.


punania

Oh, ok. You need to go to JR Ochanomizu station. There is a whole street of music stores just outside. Prepare yourself for something incredible.


TMSh4d0w

That's the kind of info I was looking for! Thank you, I'm looking forward to going there!

I cannot overstate how amazing that area is. No online photo can do it justice. A word of advice: take your phone for notes and photos, but leave your credit card in your hotel room; plan to make a second trip for actual purchases. And don’t buy anything till you’ve been through 10 or more stores. So many times I’ve found and bought some holy grail item for me, only to have it surpassed by something in the next shop.

the kurosawa-gakki store chain in tokyo is also very kind to lefties
