Has Anyone ever heard of "Pro Session" hand crafted guitars?

Mad Axe Man From Hell · January 17th, 2007, 08:41 AM

A couple years ago, a friend of my dad's gave him a battered old "Pro Session" acoustic to give to me, it has a damaged headstock and the nut was seriously damaged and basically came off if the strings were removed. Basically, I'm wondering if its worth the money to repair it. Its a pretty nice looking instrument, but I'm not sure of the sound, since the damaged headstock means the sound has always been off. And I've given up with the nut. Has anyone ever heard of the brand? On the back of the headstock it says "Q.C. passed by Kuwamura" and on the inside a sticker in plain view from the sound hole says "HAND CRAFTED GUITAR, PRO Session, Model no. FD-45 (I think, its pretty faded)" And in small print "Made In Korea"

Photos will be up soon, but yea, has anyone heard of it before? Is it worth the money to save it?

Post some photos.

I don't suppose it'll be worth anything, but someone else may know different.

How badly damaged is the headstock?

Not that bad, I could probably have it fixed for around £20...

I wasn't thinking about selling it, just if its worth spending the cash to fix it for my use... I'll post pics as soon as I can... So probably tonight... But yea, I can't find ANYTHING online about 'em...

Thanks
