Momose introduces an all-Tochi Body “MA” model & more!【Deviser One Day 2025】
The One Day Guitar Show 2025 is just around the corner! This article introduces some of Momose’s featured models. Alongside the new limited edition featuring the recently unveiled “MA” body shape from the Spring Deviser Special Showcase event, a special one-off Japanese wood model using the ever-popular Sakura and Tochi wood is also being prepared exclusively for this One Day Guitar Show event.
The Latest Model – “MA”
Modern shape featuring an archtop
Featuring a new body shape characterized by a wide horn and archtop. The model name “MA” stands for Momose Advanced, embodying a modern shape that signals a new era. All models produced this time feature an H-H pickup configuration, 24 frets, a two-point tremolo, and a coil tap switch, with specifications designed with the modern music scene in mind.
Alder body & Brazilian rosewood fingerboard
The body features a two-layer construction with a top and back, each crafted from Japanese horse chestnut wood、 displaying beautiful flame grain. The fingerboard and pickup escutcheon utilize Brazilian rosewood (Jacaranda), one of the most difficult woods to source today, elevating this instrument to an exceptionally special piece.
Three models in different colors
We plan to exhibit all three models, with brown and purple joining the blue featured in this article. Please look forward to the unveiling of Momose’s new style, worthy of a show model.
Karuizawa Carving × Sakura Guitar
Another highly anticipated model is currently in production: a special edition inspired by this year’s zodiac sign, the snake, created in collaboration with Karuizawa carving Shibazaki. The top features rare Sakurawood with an expansive flame grain, powerfully and beautifully adorned by the traditional craft of Karuizawa carving.
Every step is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans, resulting in a truly awe-inspiring appearance. A set of masterpieces are currently being crafted for the One Day event, guitars of exceptional quality by Momose’s artisans, imbued with the outstanding beauty of Karuizawa carving.
Momose × Yoshino Thousand Sakura
A limited edition Momose Sakura guitar, featuring the renowned Yoshino Mountain’s thousand cherry blossoms from Nara Prefecture on its body top, is currently in preparation. Aiming to capture the beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage site on guitar, we’ve crafted a design packed with meticulous attention to detail. This winter-exclusive cherry blossom model, brought to you by Momose, a longstanding pioneer in working with Sakura wood, is coming soon!
Tochi x “RED COLLECTION” woven in crimson
Domestic Japanese horse chestnut wood, also known as Tochi, much like maple, also features individual pieces displaying various grain patterns. This time, we’ve selected pieces from the Aska Workshop’s wood stock that showcase the highly popular flame grain and burl patterns. We’ll finish them in a red hue befitting the RED COLLECTION. Stay tuned for the full reveal!

In addition to the popular “EWC” series featuring rare exotic woods, models with frame-style finishes will be on display, along with the new “MFV” series focusing on Japanese wood.
