Version 2.2

hsin mi (kawai)

A wild one, hsin mi, never heard of it, but seems to be build in China or Taiwan in the early 70’s .

What i heard in a chinese factory of kawai.

I love the shape and overall look of it , plays good the pu’s have a low output.

This one is refinished the original paint was terrible, was original but if you told me he was refinnished before i would have believed it.

Came in his original case , and was in the 70’s available by postal order (keurkoop) in the netherlands.

Sounds great for surf, there is a slovenian surf band the Bitchboys from who the lead guitarist uses one as his main axe.
