Meeting with the FujiGen Founder Family [ FGN (FujiGen) Guitars Information Thread ]

Sadly I'm too poor for this one....

The 200th anniversary model of the founding of the Miki Musical Instrument completed after about two years created by the technology of the finest fine wood and top guitar factory! It is a special one that adopts the nested structure, which is a traditional technique of FUJIGEN.​

Shoji Yokouchi (the eldest son of the FujiGen founder) and his family made a trip across Europe - and we've met last year (June 2023) in Würzburg (Bavaria) which is close to where I live.
We had been in contact for some time on facebook, he's a contributing member of my FGN (FujiGen) Guitar Fanclub group with more than 2000 members.

He brought me a present.... handsigned from the 95 year old FGN founder and him in perfect teamwork.
Needless to say I feel honored to get such a nice present!
I gave him a picture of the FGN Fan Club's 'leadership team' taken last year at the guitar-summit in Mannheim and a gift of wine from my region.
It was a pleasure to meet Shoji Yokouchi and his family,
hope we'll meet again in 2026 when I'm retired and will visit him in Matsumoto.
