For sale is a beautiful, top of the line Suzuki 9512 'Lawsuit' model guitar, highly modelled on a D55 of the same period.
As such, it features high end appointments including a solid spruce top, gorgeous 5 ply pearl binding and beautiful large pearl block inlays atop a dark rosewood fingerboard.
This was purchased from the original owner who I believe had it from new and has kept it very well looked after. Phenomenal build quality and parts, as is to be expected of high end Japanese-built guitars of this period.
