Bigtommyb Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 OK i have a Kimbara Nylon strung guitar and have very little idea what its worth... its probably 1 of the best sounding guitars ive heard... when i first got it (about 10yrs ago) my uncle wanted to buy it from me for £500. im looking to sell it but have no idea wat its worth and hope i can get this much for it. On the inside it says : Kimbara Specially made for FCN-London Model No: G850 Please any help will be really appreciated Big Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 I found this site and viewing down the list it has a few Kimbara's listed to give you an example of what yours might be worth. I did not find your model. Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 All I could find: Instruments previously produced in Japan from the late 1960s to 1990. Current trademark re-introduced to British marketplace in 1995. Instruments currently produced in China. Distributed in the U.K. by FCN Music. The Kimbara trademark was a brand name used by a UK importer on these Japanese-produced budget level instruments. Kimbara acoustics were first introduced in England in the late 1960s. During the 1970s, the Kimbara trademark was also applied to a number of solid body guitars based on classic American designs as well. Kimbara instruments are generally mid to good quality budget models, and a mainstay in the British market through 1990. In 1995, FCN Music began importing Chinese-built classical and dreadnought acoustic guitars into England. Retail price-wise, the reborn line is back in its traditional niche. Sorry, that probably wasn't what you were hoping for... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
