I was first contacted by Ross on February 20, 2024. This FG-360 is the 102nd Japanese model and number 175 overall.
Hello David,

Just discovered your website.

I just had some repairs done on the neck (a reset) of my FG360. The serial number is 40514 and it is a tan label.
That fits with when I bought it. I was working and saving for about 10 months and found it in a store in Guelph, Ontario, Canada where I was living then.
It was 1974 or 75 when I purchased it. It was on sale for $250.  I had just started to learn how to play guitar and it had a beautiful sound. I bought it right away.
Since then I also had Grover tuners put on it. It sounded so great for the price I often thought they made a mistake when it was made. Through the years many people offered to buy it or let me know if I ever wanted to sell it. It was my first “real” guitar and we have been through a lot together.  It still sounds as good as it ever did.

Thanks for the website, it was fun to read about these guitars.

All the best, Ross
Our thanks to Ross for contacting us.
