Default Takamine C134S2

About 20 years ago, i found this guitar in my father-in-law's basement. Ive kept it in a closet for 20 years, and just pulled it out. I'm trying to find some info on it -- he wasn't a player, and I assume that it's a cheap laminate guitar, but it sounds pretty sweet. It's stamped APRIL 24 1978 inside the sound hole, and the "Takamine" stamp inside is the "lawsuit" type of logo. Any info? Sorry the pics are sideways!!!

UPDATE: I took the "2" off the model number and did another web search and found a little info on it:

I don't think the C136 is their cheap model. I think it was one of their better models.

Oops! OP mentioned C134. Never heard of that one. I was thinking of C136.

That's a good guitar, similar to a Alvarez Yairi in the same time period. Made in Japan. R
