Early Yamaha SGs
In 1974 Yamaha introduced what would become the modern double cutaway Yamaha SG series. Initially in 1972-3 the bolt on SG-30 and 35 (not shown) appeared and the set neck SG-50 and 70 (see pics). These were flat body types and in 1974, the SG90 and SG175 were issued. It is from these 2 later models that the SG2000 would appear. Both models had mahogany bodies with carved maple tops, set necks and a new type pick-guard that would be continued in later models.
The SG90 was a simple design with plain binding, chrome hardware. dot position markers and an unbound neck. The SG175 on the other hand was trimmed with Abalone it also had Abalone fret markers, gold hardware and an Ebony fretboard.
In 1975 Yamaha contacted Carlos Santana totry one of their SG175's guitars. Pictures from that time period show him playing a SG175B with a Budda inlay however Carlos wasn't entirely satisfied. In his opinion the body was too light, the guitar lacked sustain and the frets were too thin, so Yamaha and Carlos began working together to produce an improved SG175, which resulted in the SG-2000 and the ‘modern SG-500, 700, 1000, 1500 and 2000 lineup’

Here some examples of the SX-900 “A” and “B” guitar model, from the Yamaha SX-series that became known as “The Devils Head” Guitars, initial models started in 1974 and were produced till 1978. The “A” model was kitted out with 2 humbuckers and the “B” model with either or 3 single coils.
Sometime ago, a Japanese friend of mine told me that these guitars were quite rare, even in Japan, although they were made primarily for the domestic Japanese market.
There are indications this type was in use by Tommy Bolin with Deep Purple (SX-900 A and SX-125) and earlier by Rory Gallagher (SX-800B)…

All,
Leslie Petrie and I have set up a new page for Yamaha SGs and SG info sharing, called The Yamaha SG Fellowship, this was done due to developments in the Yamaha SG Appreciation Society. We feel this page can exist peacefully alongside the Yamaha 80’s and 90’s. We could do with some support for that page too. As it’s in it’s infancy, it’s still under development, have a look, and support if you can. I will continue to support this great forum too.....Cheers Joey

Yamaha SF-600, 1982, Active, Thru neck
Here a rare active Super Flighter SF-600, through neck example of the SF series made in Japan by Yamaha from 1978 to 1985, these guitars are related to the early superflighters SF-500, 700 and 1000 and sought after.
The guitar has a 22-fret laminated through neck and a solid maple/mahogany body. It has two open hum-bucker pickups with independent volume and tone controls, and features an active circuit with coil-tap option like the SF-1000, albeit via a 2 microswitch and has a wide tonal range. Good quality chrome hardware and tuners, versatile and solid, and accurate. Rosewood fret board with mother of pearl dot markers...

Yamaha LP-600, 1980
Here a vintage midrange range Yamaha LP-600s, Lord Player, the Japanese Yamaha version of the Les Paul model. These guitars were produced during the late 1970s and early 1980s. This model has a mahogany body, maple cap and rosewood fingerboard with a set neck. The guitar sports the open book headstock, to emulate the Gibsons of the day, and landed Yamaha with a Gibson lawsuit. Guitar is kitted out with strong humbuckers and a coil tapping option factory fitted, the tonal range of this instrument is great. More Aboit Yamaha LP and SL models see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

This Yamaha SG-2500 is perhaps one of the rarest SGs, it’s a mix between the SG-2000 and 3000, without the fancy Abalone, but with the higher spec, through neck, including the bridge block, adding to the sustain. For more rare SGs see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

Yamaha SG-1300
The Yamaha SG-1300 is an unusual Yamaha SG guitar, as this model has a few tremolo based variations. The SG-1300 is similar to the SG-2000s, inasmuch as that the hardware is brass and the neck is through body, but without any brass bridgeblock. The two trem versions of this Yamaha were the SG-1300T and TS. The body is flatter that's the SG-1000 giving it a better handleability. The powerhouse sits in the 2 Alnico V hum-buckers, both with coil tapping option. Despite being less heavy than its SG-2000/1000 counterparts it has good sustain, although no brass sustain plate fitted under bridge like its brother SG-2000. The guitar is quite well finished with a great appearance, headstock decoration and standard pick-guard. Weight of guitar approx. 4 Kgs, neck width at nut approx. 4.4 cm.

Just thought I’d share my pawn shop score, 1969 Yamaha FG300 Nippon Gakki acoustic guitar, was really dirty and rough but I breathed much life back into it. Sound Compares to same Early Martin and Gibson acoustics that are in the thousands of dollars. Enjoy 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😇🙏❤️

”Single Cutaway Yamaha SGs” 1973-74.....
Apart from the well known double cutaway SGs, Yamaha made some single cutaway SG’s too. These guitars were produced during a short period in the early 1970s, in the run up to the famous SG-175 and SG-2000. Here are 3 examples Yamaha SG-45, 65 and top of the range model SG-85. All were built from high quality materials, with a simple finish in natural wood, dark or light. The guitars are pretty with the translucent varnish showing the underlying wood. The sound of these vintage gems is outstanding too...

Then there were 2 “Blue’s”
Here another Yamaha SG-1000N in Blue Burst finish. The SG-1000N is a narrow neck version of the SG-1000, which was issued as the more rocky little brother of the acclaimed Yamaha SG-2000. It's a quality built guitar with a set neck and high grade rosewood fret-board with mother of pearl, split wing position markers. The weight of guitar is approx. 4 Kgs, which is .3 kg lighter than the SG-1000, the neck is a bit slimmer and tapered (neck width at nut approx. 4.1 cm.) For more info and pictures of this SG-1000N and others see my web blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

NGD, Yamaha SC-1200, 1979
Here one of the classic Vintage Japanese Guitars from Japan's 'Golden Era' of guitar manufacture. The Japanese Yamaha SC-1200 electric guitar is the top of the range of the so-called Japan Superstrats and was produced only from 1978-1980 and offered a customised take on the three-pick-up solid body guitar concept. Features included a familiar double cut offset Alder body (Strat Style) with Maple and Mahogany Thru body neck construction; Ebony fingerboard with diamond inlays; Three original single coil pick-up with 'Super Combination' On/Off switching providing range of sounds that had not yet been possible from a conventional 5-way switching system like the original Stratocasters; 13 different combinations possible with an enormous tonal variety.
The guitar is very easy to set up due to its fixed bridge with 6-individual saddles. A super super strat in all but name. More like these on my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz.J

Yamaha SG-2000, Flame-top Tobacco Sunburst, 1998
Here in great condition, a Yamaha SG-2000 limited issue in glossy vintage flame top Tobacco Sunburst, a great looking Yamaha SG. Like all other SG-2000 models, these have their origins in the SG-175, after involvement of Carlos Santana. The SG-2000 would go on to become one of the heaviest guitars around due to the choice of woods and tone woods and application of a brass block under the bridge. This is a very pretty guitar, and despite the weight, the guitar plays like a dream. This model has coil taps, giving it great tonal range; more pics see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

Yamaha LP-600s (1980, Sunburst)
Here a vintage midrange range Yamaha LP-600s, Lord Player, the Japanese Yamaha version of the Les Paul model, with the Gibson like open book headstock and Kluson Tuners. These guitars were produced during the late 1970s and early 1980s, together with the better known Yamaha SL and SG range. This model has a maho body, maple cap and rosewood fingerboard with a set neck. The guitar sports the open book headstock, to emulate the Gibsons of the day, and landed Yamaha with a Gibson lawsuit. However, that does not detract from the quality of the Yamahas. Lord Players (and Studio Lords) were more than Yamaha’s Les Paul copies; these were high quality, solid and well build guitars. Guitar is kitted out with high output hum-buckers and a coil tapping option is also factory fitted, therefore the tonal range of this instrument is great. More info see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

“Blue”
Here we have a very rare Yamaha SG-1000N in Blue Burst finish. The SG-1000N is a narrow neck version of the SG-1000, which was issued as the more rocky little brother of the acclaimed Yamaha SG-2000. This guitar is a top quality axe and handles and balances well; the tapered narrow neck, reminiscent of the Gibson 60s models plays superbly easy and coupled with the fact that the guitar has been set up with low action, it plays light and fluid. The guitar is a real beauty with the black and blue fading in. It's a quality built guitar with a set neck and high grade ebony fret-board with mother of pearl, split wing position markers. The guitar is in very good condition with only minor marks. The weight of guitar is approx. 4 Kgs, which is .3 kg lighter than the SG-1000, the neck is a bit slimmer and tapered with the neck width at nut approx. 4.1 cm. more info and pictures see my web blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

Rare Yamaha SG-1000XU, 1985
Here a rarity the Yamaha SG-1000XU, a factory issued modified Yamaha SG-1000. One of a very few with a arrow-shaped headstock instead of the open book shaped. Apparently this was a limited release issue and seems to be associated with a tv series for youngsters in Japan in the 1980s. The guitar plays very much like the Yamaha SG-1300T and is equipped with a similar trem system. Coil tapping options are part of the spec and it has the 2Vol/2tone controls. The neck, is set flush with the body almost resembling an SG-2000 without the thru neck or brass block under the bridge. For more pics, specifications and other info see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, chz J

Yamaha SG-800s, Indigo Blue, 1982/3
Here a Yamaha SG-800s Standard in deep indigo blue. The Yamaha SG-800s was the work horse as well as flagship SG that would compete with the Gibson Standard, hence the denomination SG-800 Standard. Kitted out with 2 powerful Alnico V pick ups and a coil tapping as factory standard this is a rocky little brother of the acclaimed Yamaha SG-2000. The guitar plays like a dream, light and fluid, with nice low action. The guitar is quite a bit lighter than the SG-2000.; it has a set neck and rosewood fret-board.

Yamaha SG-175
Flagship guitar of my collection, the holy grail of Yamaha SG guitars, we have here the Yamaha SG-175, the top of the range SG that hit the music scene in 1974. This Yamaha SG-175 initially caught the eye of Carlos Santana who tried and tested the Yamaha SG-175 out. Although he thought it a great guitar, he deemed the SG-175 too light, and hence lacked the sustain he was looking for. Yamaha Music Co used his input in design and functionality to develop the now famous Yamaha SG-2000, probably the earliest famous Yamaha electric guitar. The changes to the SG-175 design meant a evolution to a heavier and contoured solid body electric guitar, the Yamaha SG-2000. For weight and resonance transfer, a brass block was added under the bridge and the guitar was made with a thru body neck
Copies of some of the original hybrids of SG-175/2000 can be seen on his Santana’s live renditions of “She’s not there”, “Europa”, “Black magic woman” and more recordings from the album “Moonflower”. The Yamaha SG-175 was produced in only small numbers, as only the best of the best of materials were used and is now a very sought after instrument amongst Yamaha SG aficionados.
It is a brilliantly high-quality guitar built with a Honduran Mahogany body, bound with ornate abalone binding, the set neck is made from one-piece bound mahogany with ebony fret-board, again with decorative mother of pearl split-wing markers. The headstock is quite plain with triple binding surrounding the wood, there is no decorative floral motif inlay as common with the later SG-2000 and SG-1000, just the Yamaha Logo.

Rare Yamaha SG-1300T, Metallic Red 1985
Unusual and unique Yamaha SG shredder guitar, the Yamaha SG-1300T guitar is the example of an unusual top quality build guitar. Killer looks and great sound whichever way you set the tone/volume.
It sports a Mahogany body with maple cap, a flat body with a flush, set neck, ebony fret board, mother of pearl split-wing fret-board position markers, locking nut and Kahler Tremolo unit. Gold plated Hardware, Twin hum-buckers, coil tapping option. The guitar is less heavy than its SG-2000/1000 counterparts but still has lots and lots of sustain, although no brass sustain plate fitted under bridge like its brother SG-2000. The guitar is a real beauty in metallic red with a cream aged binding. The guitar is quite well finished with a great appearance, headstock decoration and no standard pick-guard. Weight of guitar approx. 4 Kgs, neck width at nut approx. 4.4 cm. the cream version is the other one, more picture of the red SG-1300T or the cream coloured version see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com

Yamaha SG-2000, Cream White 1990s
Here a near mint condition, Yamaha SG-2000 Custom Shop issue in glossy vintage cream finish. Of all the Yamaha SGs, this is no doubt one of the most desirable Yamaha SG-2000s. Like all other SG-2000 models, these have their origins in the SG-175, after involvement of Carlos Santana. The SG-2000 would go on to become one of the heaviest guitars around due to the choice of woods and tome woods and application of a brass block under the bridge. This development took place in the early 1970s. This is a pretty guitar, and despite the weight, the guitar plays like a dream, light and fluid, and has a super straight neck, allowing a set up with very low action. This model is fitted with coil taps, as that give it a massive tonal range. Guitar lives in a bespoke Yamaha engraved leather case. More of this model and other SG-2000s, see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, cheers Joey.

Yamaha SG-25s, 1991. Celebrating 25-year Yamaha Electric Guitar making - Anniversary issue
One of the most iconic guitars ever produced by Yamaha and in the spirit of the Buddha and Devadip Yamaha SG guitars made for Santana, we find the Yamaha SG25s. This guitar was made in 250 pieces in 1991 to commemorate Yamaha Corp 25-year production of Electric guitars since 1966, when the 1st Yamaha SG-2 etc was produced. The specification is like a SG-3000, with a great amount of abalone decoration. The guitar has been used by a professional player in Japan. The Spinex pickups which are typical for a SG-3000 are the power plant of this axe.

Yamaha SG-3000s, Slim Neck, Goldtop, 1985
Here a well kept Yamaha SG-3000, Gold Top, Slim Neck 1985. The Yamaha SG-3000s guitar is a top quality build guitar. Sporting killer looks and equipped with a great sound whichever way you set the tone/volume pots. It sports a mahogany body with maple cap, a proper thru body neck, ebony fret board, abalone split-wing fret-board position markers, abalone purfling round the binding. Brass plated hardware, Spinex pups with coil tapping option.The guitar is heavy and has lots and lots of sustain. The guitar is a real beauty with the finish in sparkly gold topped off with elaborate binding in abalone. A pick-guard was never fitted on this guitar, and no drill holes are present. The guitar has seen some use and there are some scuff marks, however these are only paint marks and no damage to the woods. So here we have a great ace with a great appearance, headstock decoration and great playability. The Yamaha SG-3000 is the ultimate SG, evolved from the renowned Yamaha SG-175 in 1974 which was made famous by musicians such as Carlos Santana, and the later SG-2000 with by guitaristst like Stuart Adamson, Trevor Horn, Al DiMeola, Phil Manzanera and Bob Marley to name but a few. Despite the weight, the guitar is a joy to play. Weight of guitar approx. 4.3 Kgs, neck width at nut approx. 4.1 cm. More pics and info see my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com. One of the best of Yamaha SG range

Rare Yamaha SG-1000N (indigo blue, 1984)
Back in Yamaha SG ambassadors collection a 1980s Yamaha SG-1000N in rare Indigo Blue, the N postfix denotes a narrow neck version of the SG-1000, which was issued as the more rocky little brother of the acclaimed Yamaha SG-2000 that was developed in the 1970s. This guitar is a top quality axe and handles and balances well; the great narrow neck, reminiscent of the Gibson 60s models plays superbly easy and coupled with the fact that the guitar has been set up with low action, it plays light and fluid. The weight of guitar is approx. 4 Kgs, which is .3 kg lighter than the SG-1000, the neck is a bit slimmer and tapered with the neck width at nut approx. 4.1 cm. More of these rare finishes and SGs see my newly revamped and updated blog www.elitevintageguitars.com, feedback welcome.....chz Joey

Thank you Daniel Lagarto for posing a great question!! ............ " There's something I forgot to ask, have you got any tips on how to look out for a fake? " ????????
To which I replied with questionable thought...
Man, a fake ? That's blasphemy! 😳, I have seen the Chinese fake valuable USA guitars such as Gibson, they call them chibsons, 🔥🤥👀😭, they look really good but they are of very poor quality. The fact is some Yamaha guitars were in fact made in China, and not of really bad quality either, but there is no money in fabricating a once forgotten older Yamaha that has long since been forgotten, when they become of more popularity and value we will then have to worry about fakes being made in the image of. But you are correct we must keep a watchful eye because there are not many examples of these to compare wether or not a fake has been made of it. You can use this page to show pics and ask if we think it is a fake or not and we will do our best to compare quality, but as far as I know and see in all my travels all these years I have not yet seen a fake yet, but I have seen many times these guitars with the incorrect parts or necks put on them to make them functional to pass them off as operational original guitar for sale. Keep me posted if you think you might have a fake we must expose it to the Yamaha collectors masses out there. Peace and Love Brother ! 😇🙏❤️
Anything anyone would like to add here please comment below 😀
To which I replied with questionable thought...
Man, a fake ? That's blasphemy! 😳, I have seen the Chinese fake valuable USA guitars such as Gibson, they call them chibsons, 🔥🤥👀😭, they look really good but they are of very poor quality.

1982 SG-800s Standard.
The SG-800s Standard was the midrange all-in-one 1980s Yamaha SG Guitar, great neck, lighter than SG-1000/2000, Coil tapping and great pick ups, modelled on the best Seymour Duncan and DiMarzio stock. Sound wise and playability it appears probably better than the SG-1000. The fact that is has a set neck in stead on thru body neck does not alter the sustain too much, this is compensated by the high output pups. More info about this versatile 1980s guitar, see my personal blog on www.elitevintageguitars.com, happy reading cheers Joey

Just bought this one, should be fun !! 😳
So here is the story on this guitar, It's been all over the US........the original owner who I purchased this from writes......
"I was an Yamaha endorser in the 1990s, the Yamaha custom shop in North Hollywood put this guitar together for me. The neck is really thin and flat! The neck is also very straight as you can see from one of the pictures above.This guitar has been all over the US, the original case, like many of my cases were trashed by the airlines so I threw it away. There is no case with this guitar. There are very few dings on the guitar and the 5 position switch, in the middle position featuring the single coil pickup, this is not very loud, I think it's the switch.
There is no cover plate for the tremolo springs on the back of the guitar. There was a Roland GK-2A on this guitar so I cut the pickup ring on the bridge pickup, so I could fit the GK pickup between the bridge pickup and bridge. I was a Roland clinician and I used this guitar to demo guitar synths and the VG-99. There are also some screw holes where the GK was screwed down. It would be easy to install a new pickup ring and fill the screw holes. As you can see there is a hole where the original volume control was. I took out the tone control and moved the volume to the tone position and left the volume control hole. This could easily be plugged.
The knife edges on the Floyd are in great shape, the tremolo returns to tuning perfect, when pulling up or down on the bar. This Floyd Rose, licensed tremolo clamps the strings at the bridge but it also allows the ball end of the string to stay on, the string goes through the back of the guitar a bit like a strat. This guitar was made in Japan in 2002. I received two of these guitars at the LA custom shop in North Hollywood. The other guitar is blue, I love both guitars but the sparkle is a little flashy for me. Here's a video of me playing this guitar yesterday Oct. 19, 2017.

Super rare Yamaha SG-25s, 1991
One of the most iconic guitars ever produced by Yamaha and in the spirit of the Buddha and Devadip Yamaha SG guitars made for Santana, we find the Yamaha SG25s. This guitar was made in 250 pieces in 1991 to commemorate Yamaha Corp 25-year production of Electric guitars since 1966, when the 1st Yamaha SG-2 etc was produced. The specification is like a SG-3000, with a great amount of abalone decoration. More info, see my gear-page at www.elitevintageguitars.com cheers Joey

Yamaha Pacifica 1230, TV Yellow Mike stern model, 1990s
On behalf of a guitar-pal. Here and excellent guitar and of the higher end model Pacifica guitars from Yamaha in the early 90s. Guitar features a Tele style body, triple USA DiMarzio Soapbar Humbuckers, and a Floyd style double locking Trem that Yamaha designed so that the strings slide through and dont require having the balls snipped off! Super fast and easy to change strings.
The neck is one of the thinnest and fastest Ive ever layed my hands on. Huge frets that show very little wear. The pearl inlays are unique and eye catching as well.Overall the guitar is in very nice shape. There are some small little scratches that were nearly impossible to photo well, but overall this is in nice shape as you can see.Everything sounds good too. Very aggressive tone. Misding back plate and tremolo arm but a replacement can be bought.
Hard Case in the pictures is included. More info on my gear page www.elitevintageguitars.com. Price £575 ONO

Yamaha SG-300 (Burgundy Red, 1982)
Here a rare 1980s red Yamaha SG-300 electric guitar in excellent condition; there is very little and hardly noticeable wear. The Yamaha SG-300 was introduced in 1981 as a follow up to the earlier Yamaha SG-500 and Yamaha SG-600 that were issued in 1976-1981 as an addition to the initial Yamaha SG line up of Yamaha SG-500, 700, 1000, 1500 and SG-2000
The SG-300 was produced in burgundy red and black. The SG-300 is a light-weight excellent guitar and its flat design and lighter weight makes it easy to play, it has low action with a powerful sound from 2 high output double hum-buckers. Hardware is chrome. A brass version of this guitar was labelled SG-400, the SG-300 appears to be rare and not issued in Japan.

Yamaha LP-1000 Custom (Black Beauty, 1980)
Here a rare Yamaha LP-1000, the 1970’s top of the range version of Japanese Yamaha Les Paul model, these guitars were produced during the 1970’s till the early 1980s, along the well known Yamaha SG range.
This Yamaha LP-1000 Custom was produced in Yamaha’s Matsumoku’s Custom shops and was deemed the top type of the Yamaha Les Paul (SL/LP) range. The guitar sports a solid body, fitted with a set neck, ebo fretboard, gold hardware, dual metal covered Yamaha Humbuckers. The guitar body is decorated with mother of pearl fret markers and cream binding that has beautifully aged to a cream yellow hue. The Yamaha LP models were produced with two main types, the Lord Players (LP’s) and the Studio Lords (SL). The sound is awesome and more than matches high end vintage Gibson Custom counterpart; for example plugged in over my H&K it’s more than possible to emulate the distinctive Peter Green sound without applying a whole box of electronic wizardry, just the guitar.

Buyers beware! The exakt same guitar is listed on Digimart by its REAL seller at less than half the price the eBay scammer is requesting. clubgjapan on eBay is just one "seller" scammer in a long line that "sells" items that they do not actually own or stock. http://www.digimart.net/cat01/shop4915/DS03858565/

From your SG Ambassador - For the green lovers !
Very rare Yamaha SF-600 in translucent dark green finish. Of all the Yamaha SF series, this thru body neck Yamaha SF model is no doubt one of the most rare versions of the desirable Yamaha SF range. This guitar is a real gem, with its translucent green colour and plays like a dream, light and fluid.
A rare early Yamaha SF with active pups powered with a 9-V battery added in a back body cavity; this supercharge gives the guitar an awesome playability and tonal range.
This particular model has also been kitted out with coil taps.

A rare early Yamaha SF with active pups powered with a 9-V battery added in a back body cavity; this supercharge gives the guitar an awesome playability and tonal range.
This particular model has also been kitted out with coil taps.

"Big Country" goes revved up Vintage Yamaha
To all vintage Yamaha friends update November 2016 ) Update “Big Country – Big Sound!!”
Your SG ambassador Joey has been busy promoting, not just Yamaha SG's but also rare Super Combinators, Superflighter and even RGX's. We (Friend Wilf Vissenga and I) have been supercharging vintage Yamaha gear with superhot pick ups (Ghost Pick ups) made in the Northeast England. We have been working with Platinum/Gold record selling 1980's/90's rock band "Big Country" from Scotland to test run these superhotties and even further enhance the vintage often dubbed "Guitar/Bagpipe " sound
So that’s the final selection to completion of the guitar “sound” of “Big Country” and “Skids” done, finally 6 carefully selected hi-qual Japanese Elite Vintage Guitars (see www.elitevintageguitars.com for details), Yamaha Superflighter SF-700 (1977), SF-700 (1978); Yamaha Supercombinator SC-800 (1979), SC-1200, and some ligther Yamaha SG's SG-50 (1973) and SG-200 (1982) have been selected to deliver the current and future sound of these 2 iconic bands.
Below see some pics of Bruce Watson and Jamie Watson playing on stage and test driving some of these iconic and often rare axes….. More to follow, Cheers J

Wow !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Hey Folks,
I'm offering my lovely Yamaha Pacifica 812W in the translucent blue colour from the 1999. It's actually a mixture of blue and green, which is very beautiful in my opinion. It has no longer been produced for years. There are normal fine signs of usage on the body, but no important scratches, dents, etc. It is in a very good condition. It was only played in my room and well maintained. For further information and pictures, please go to my ebay account by clicking the link below.

Rare Yamaha guitar Season - The Yamaha SX " The Devilhead Guitar"
Does anyone know this type of electric guitar or has come across one? A Japanese friend of mine told me that these guitars are quite rare, even in Japan. Initial production started alongside the Yamaha SG range; The Yamaha SX 800 and B were near top of the SX range sports 3 independent single coil, high output pick ups and its tonal variety and range is immense, varying from soulful and clear, to a powerful growl. As a collector of Yamaha SG’s, Studio Lords and Super Combinators (SC’s). It feels like a fusion of the SC and SG….
There are indications this type was in use by Tommy Bolin with Deep Purple on various live recordings and earlier by Rory Gallagher… For set photo’s see:
http://www.rorygallagher.com/#/archives/guitars/sx800b
more info also on my blog Elite Vintage Guitars
In the pictures: Yamaha SX-80 (1973, Natural), Yamaha SX-800B (Black , 1976), Yamaha SX-60 (1974, White), Yamaha SX-80 (1978, Black), Yamaha SX-800A (1976, Black). Missing from the pics is Yamaha SX-900 (A/B) differing from the SX-800 (A/B) only hardware Chrome vs Brass

The Yamaha SF (Super Flighter)
Here an example of another enigmatic guitar made by Yamaha in the 1970s and 1980s (SF-500, SF-700 and SF-1000) and later slightly modified and reissued in the 1980's (SF-3000 with single humbucker, SF-5000 and SF-7000, both with double humbuckers and coil tap option). The SF model appears to resemble the Superstrats, although the Super Combinators (SC-s) are closer to Superstrats. The SF guitar was only short lived as it seems to have been outsold by the more popular SG in the 1980's.
Does anybody on the forum, or reader have any more info on this? SF guitars have a flat fret board and play very comfortable and l and sound great. There is some more specific info on www.yamahasuperflighters.co.uk and there are some close up pics on my blog www.elitevintageguitars.com.
So any forum info greatly appreciated. Answers on a postcard please.........

The Yamaha YSG
Here is an example of an enigmatic guitar made by Yamaha in the 1980s. The YSG model, I personally can't get over the close resemblance with more modern Paul Reed Smith PRS guitars. Does anybody on the forum, or reader have any info on this?
These come up for sale only occasionally on eBay or gumtree, and are hard to get (valued). They are typically equipped with a Kahler type tremolo system and play very well and sound great. I have some more pics on my web blog Elite Vintage Guitars. So, any info from forum members or guests is greatly appreciated. A Yamaha catalog from the early 1980s has them along the Yamaha Superstrat, Yamaha Weddington, MSG, RGX, Pacifica and other exotic models.

Yamaha SG- The oldies.......
From Joey your SG ambassador, a little throwback in history......
Yamaha Music Corp made some interesting double and single cutaway SG's well before Carlos Santana got involved over the period 1972-1976. The simple bolt on SG-30 and SG-35 are good examples of these early SG's and are generally discounted from the SG range although they had excellent playability and good looks too. So here is a little Yamaha SG's rogues gallery with some iconic early SG's
From Left to right - Double cutaway Yamaha SG's, Yamaha SG-50 (1973 White), SG-70 (Red, 1974), SG-175 (Nat Wood, 1974), SG-90 (Black, 1975) and the two Single cutaway SG-45 (Mahogany, 1974) and SG-85 ((Mahogany, 1974), the SG-65 is missing from the range....................for more info and pics, see my other blogs on www.elitevintageguitars..com, cheers Joey

If you watched below , the "Sound Advice" video with Bill Leverty's gear. This is the song he utilizes that tripling method he was talking about to give the twelve string effect in the beginning of the song " Reach for the sky" so make your move, put your hands in the air, and kiss your ass goodbye !! http://youtu.be/byq2K2IYMlI

From your SGAmbassador: we present the Yamaha SG1966, rare limited release, 1 of 20 issued in 1986 (Rarer than SG175 !!)
Here an example of a really rare and historical Yamaha SG, the so-called Yamaha SG1966, Shibuya. This SG, which is even rarer than the legendary Yamaha SG175, is one out of only 20 guitars which were hand crafted in the YAMAHA Shibuya-Japan music shop, which does not exist any more, as a memorial to 20th year anniversary of Yamaha Corporations electric guitar making since 1966. Each of these 20 SG1966 was fully hand crafted and the release was overseen by Yamaha’s technical staff and luthiers. Some pertinent info regarding this rare instrument is described in the also rare book about he the history of the Yamaha SG “Yamaha SG Grafitti” by Shinko Music Mook, 1995. The catalogue list value in 1985/6 was 150,000 Yen the equivalent of £1000 in 1985/86!
The SG1966 was made in the spirit of the legendary Yamaha SG-175. The body and the neck is made of high quality mahogany, finger board is made of ebony wood, the binding around the guitar body is made of Mexican Abalone in a high quality finish. The body, is a Flat-top body, like the SG175, with abalone dot shaped position markers. Sound output is great, guitar is kitted out with 2 high output covered hum-bucker (Spinex) pickups; the guitar has a wide tonal variety due to a bi-sound system, operated with push push coil tapping. Cheers Joey, your SG ambassador.

Collection of vintage Yamaha rarities up for grabs...
Hiya all you Yamaha Guitar aficionados....
your SG ambassador is back after a short absence needed to get a new job,.....as my oil and gas job sector appears to have taken a right nose dive, I have decided to sell the majority of my vintage guitars and keep some of my most iconic SGs, SX models, high end Pacificas and my BB basses, hence I will be posting for sale some rare beauties, for details see my personal web blog www.elitevintageguitars.com. So here is for starters this Yamaha VX-1. A light blue delightful little V model, the Yamaha VX-1, 1985, Metallic Blue, 1985, a rare bird made in Yamaha’s Hamamatsu factory only in 1985.

Hi Guys, Yamaha VX-1, 1985, Metallic Black & Blue, 1985
Trying offload some of my collection, so offers welcome....
Here's a Yamaha “mini Flying V” VX1 model, a rare bird made in Yamaha’s Hamamatsu factory only in 1985. The original pickups are Seymour Duncan SH-8 Invader. There is little known about this guitar, apart from its rarity and it was produced from a very short while. Sound, playability and tone is excellent and a treat coming from a small flying V shaped guitar, comes with original Flying V gig bag. Location Berwick upon Tweed, UK. For more info, check also my own website www.elitevintageguitars.com, cheers Joey...

Yamaha SG450 (Cream Pearl White, 1985)
Here an extremely rare 1985 Yamaha SG-450 electric guitar in excellent near mint condition; The Yamaha SG-450 was introduced in 1984/5 as a follow up to the earlier Yamaha SG-400 that were issued in 1979-1984 as an addition to the initial Yamaha SG line up. The Yamaha SG450 was produced in pearl white only. The Yamaha SG-450 is a light weight excellent guitar and its flat design makes it easy to play, it has low action with a powerful sound from 2 high-output hum-buckers of the SG2000 spec. This guitar is quite special and is one of the few other than the SG1000, 1500, 800 and 700 that was kitted out with coil tapping.

Rare Yamaha SX-80, the Devilhead guitar 1973, predecessor to many but valued too....
Maybe not 1980s or 90s, but these early and rare Yammies influenced many......Just check out Tommy Bolin with Deep Purple on some early 1970s live video recordings, and Rory Gallagher on the Isle of Wight.....

Rare Yamaha SG Custom Shop, Quilt/Flame Tops
1-Yamaha SG800 Custom (Red-burst, 1980)
2-Yamaha SG1996 Custom ( Sunburst, 1996)
3-Yamaha SG2000 Custom (Tobacco-burst,1990s)
4-Yamaha SG3000 Custom ( Fire-burst 1990s)
The Yamaha custom shop SG guitar are the example of a top quality build guitar. Killer looks and depending on the type a great sound whichever way you set the tone/volume. It often sports a Mahogany body with maple cap, a set or thru body neck, rosewood or ebony fret board, mother of pearl split-wing fret-board position markers, abalone puddling. Gold plated Hardware, Twin hum-buckers, coil tapping options.
The SG guitars are typically heavy with lots and lots of sustain, some enhanced with a brass sustain plate fitted under bridge. These custom shop SG guitars are simply stunning, and demonstrate the Yamaha luthiers’ craftsmanship and quite well finished with a great appearance.

Yamaha Super Axe SA-90 (1974, Natural Wood)
Alongside the initial successes of the Yamaha solid body double cutaway electric guitars issued in 1974 like the SG175 and SG 90, Yamaha had pitched a small number of Semi Acoustic guitars also known as Super Axes which were given the prefix SA. There were SA 30, SA50, SA 60 and SA90. These semi-acoustics were initially modelled on the hugely successful Gibson ES-335, while the Yamaha SA line was initially produced since 1967 and with limited success. This SA-90 was deemed the top of the range in 1974....
Stunning looks and phenomenal sound, with powerful pick ups, very easy to play with a relatively low action.....

The Yamaha SG1500, a mystery solved?
Dear guitaraholics, hope you all had a great start to 2015... As an SG aficionado, I get asked a very common question...
How come there are 2 types of Yamaha SG 1500?
Looks like one of my fellow SG aholics has put together a concise summary answering just that...
Check out: http://www.yamahaguitars.nl/facts-figures/sg1500-confusion/

Very interesting !!! is this a Yamaha RGX CUSTOM COPY ?????? check out the 2014 Washburn PX-SOLAR170C...........The PX-Solar Series is the signature line of swedish guitarist and producer Ola Englund (The Haunted, Feared, former Six Feet Under...). PX-Solar guitars feature full access neck joints, alder bodies and ebony fingerboards. With their stealth looks, the PX-Solar guitars are very solid, precise and professional instruments that will satisfy any metal player.
"The Solar line of guitars have everything I want out of a guitar, the tone, the feel, the looks. Everything just falls into place when I have one in my lap. Washburn gave me free hands to design whatever I wanted, no questions asked, and the outcome is a dream come true."
- Ola Englund.
Have a look through this album showing both the Washburn and Yamaha guitars in question...............................https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.598708020260646.1073741861.129357237195729&type=3

Rare Vintage Yamaha SX-800s - "The Devils Head" 1978, in Black finish
Does anyone know this type of electric guitar or has come across one? Japanese friend of mine told me that these guitars are quite rare, even in Japan. Initial production started alongside the Yamaha SG range; It sports 3 independent single coil, high output pick ups and its tonal variety and range is immense and varies from soulful and clear, to a powerful growl. As a collector of Yamaha SG's, Studio Lords and Super Combinators (SC's). It feels like a fusion of the SC and SG....Any feedback from the forum welcome....Thanks J.

Yamaha SG, the beginning......
Many guitarists will have heard of the Yamaha brand. Some may think how can a company that makes motorcycles etc, make good guitars? Anyway, Carlos Santana put Yamaha guitars on the world map with the Yamaha SG175 and his input to the Yamaha SG2000 and since then many guitarists of household name bands have been using an SG.
To name but a few, Phil Manzanera, Bob Marley, Andy Taylor, John McGeogh, Al DiMeola, Stuart Adamson, John Frusciante... And many more....
However, before the SG175 and the SG2000, Yamaha had been making SGs since 1966, some were single cut out like the SG2, SG6 and latterly the SG45, 65, 85...and some were double cutaway, like the most basic SG30, and the more advanced SG50 and SG70. These were quite basic guitars but had like the 1980s SG200, quite powerful pick ups that can deliver quite a full and powerful sound...
I have added some pice here for you...these are SG30 1972 in natural wood, SG50 1973 in deep brown, and in black a rare SG70, probably the closest to the now famous SG90 and SG175....
Enjoy...Jay

Vintage Yamaha Studio Lords, the new SG?
From your SG Ambassador - Part 2
As promised in a previous post, October is Studio Lord Month...........
Here we have series of Studio Lord SL500s, SL380, SL430, and SL700, 1976... Great looking guitars made by Yamaha alongside the famous Yamaha SGs..
These Yammies sport great looks and a great sound and play remarkably alike the famous vintage Gibson Les Paul Standard 1959 and the latter 1970s versions that had the fatter necks. Have checked the weight and playability of them both and must say they are quite alike. For the older SL and 500s, and even the more modest SL430 (Black) the biting sound of the bridge pick up sounds like Peter Green doing the "Green Manalishi.........."
So Yamaha aficionados across the globe, go on have a look out for these and tell us here on this forum what Yamaha all think of them....or even better, can you find or create some recordings with them.....
Cheers Jay

Yamaha SG700
......continued.. From your Yamaha SG Ambassador....here an example of a 1st edition Yamaha SG post Yamaha SG175, electric guitar....
This beast was rescued from a sorry state and cleaned up, elbow greased, set up, fret cleaned...etc.
Upon cleaning I saw the binding had gone yellow from white and serial number 1065 appeared.
It is embossed in the wood, not marked up on the varnish, which dates it back to 1975/1976 as the latter production had serial numbers starting with 00 or 0.

The Yamaha SG Ambassador strikes again.....!
Let me introduce you to...... The 1980s Yamaha SG510.....
This is a truly strange beast, originally produced around 1984/5 only for the Japanese market only.. Very alike the SG300, SG400 and the late 1980s USA export version SG500B
Lovers of the New Romantics like Duran Duran, may have noticed Andy Taylor sporting a black SG510 in Hungry as the Wolf.....
For some more detailed and comprehensive background on these gems from the past, check out Chris Ridddels excellent compilation on Yamaha SGs on www.yamahasggeek.com or my own web blog www.elitevintageguitars.com.....
Happy reading, Jay

Yamaha SG700, the most underrated Yamaha SG but probably one of the best.....
The Yamaha SG Ambassador is back......I just wanted to share this with you.. This SG was only produced in 1976 till 1979, and in Brown and Cherry burst.....
It's fitted with a heavy body and made along the more well known Yamaha SG 2000. However, sound wise I believe it outclasses the Yamaha SG 1000, it's not what the SG 1000 proud owners will want to hear but I have heard and played more Yamaha SGs than I have had breakfasts....
So when you see one on eBay or Gumtree, or Kijiji.... Go for it, thou shallt not be disappointed.....

This is incredible ! Thank you Scott Szeryk for sharing the process you had done to your Yamaha Pacifica 1421.
He writes...........1992 yamaha pacifica 1421 – fretboard overhaul and refret.
This is another case of a guitar that has been constantly played, and on the road! After 3 fret levels the frets were ground down and it was time for a fretboard overhaul.
The old frets were carefully pulled. Fretboard completely levelled and sanded/polished to 12,000 grit, and new Stainless Steel Frets were installed.
The finished result is an incredably responsive guitar that plays effortlessly! 10 gauge strings bend like 9′s, and the sustain is phenomenal.
A lot of modifications have been done to this guitar over the years. Most notably an early 80′s Floyd Rose system with 375 gram tone block were added. Direct mount EMG 85, SV and 89 pickups, and custom electronics.
This guitar sounds HUGE and has sustain for days!!

THANK YOU Nuno Pimenta for sharing these works of art Yamaha Pacifica 1421's
Here are my two beauty s, Those are my favorites girls for a long time. I have other guitars and i like then all. But these Pacificas are truly special to me. Bought the black one new in 94 when i was in my Satriani/Vai era.
About 10/12 years ago i bought the Pink used. Actually Yamaha call it Crimson red.
Will keep then forever.

I once was a top Vlogger on Live Video before they collapsed, my handle was AX WILD , You all know why, lol ! Here is a video I made Me and my Les Paul with Yami Actives in it . I farmed a set of 1980's Active electronics out of a beat to hell Yamaha RGX 612A and installed them into my EPI Les Paul, I fused the two single coils into a humbucker for fit and leveling ability, yet they retain their individual on off selection toggle switch ability, I gutted the LP 3way switch compartment for the 9 volt battery, this is a video for you to hear what they sound like, these 1980 Yamaha Active Electronics will give EMGS and the 80's Jackson 1200 circuit board a serious run for the money. NOTICE MY PEARL YAMAHA RGX 1212S WHICH ALSO HAS A SET OF YAMI ACTIVES IN IT !!!!! Now turn it up and close your eyes , enjoy the flowing sweet ride of these pickups !!!

My Baby ! 1989 Yamaha RGX CUSTOM, RARE special order Red Crackle finish, this guitar was in such bad condition when I rescued it, I rewired it and dropped in some Yami Active pups out of a busted up 1212A, Then Smoked the edges and blackend the scallops before hitting it with a new clear coat, this Ax is ROCK SOLID, and will give any Bad Ass a good run for the money.

The Yamaha RGX Standard features the same superlative design and craftsmanship as the Yamaha RGX Custom model , but with a different combination of materials and pickups. The body features a beautiful curly maple top and mahogany back with Yamahas elegant Crystal Cut design for a tight , clear sound and extra sustain. Like the Yamaha RGX Custom model , the neck is a long scale type for extra articulation and harmonic response. The Yamaha RGX Standard features a single humbucker with two single-coil types , allowing a greater range of crisp , tight tones. The controls include master volume , five position pickup selector , master tone with coil split switch and a direct out switch for the rear pickup. The Yamaha RGX Standard came in four colors , Orange Sunburst , Blonde , Translucent Violet Sunburst , and Translucent Red.https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.150411215090331.31517.129357237195729&type=3

This 1987 Yamaha RGX 612A just SOLD on Ebay for $490.00 US Dollars, posted by @[129357237195729:274:Yamaha Guitars , 80's and 90's] , check this out.............The Yamaha RGX612A was built by Yamaha in the late eighties to compete with the Ibanez, Jackson/Charvel and Kramer guitars that were so popular for rock and metal styles of the time. It was built in Taiwan and was a reasonably high end instrument back in its day. It features an alder body, maple neck with rosewood fretboard, 24 jumbo frets, Yamaha RM (Rockin' Magic) Pro tremolo bridge (kind of like a cross between a Floyd Rose and a Kahler). This particular model features an H-S-S pickup configuration with Yamaha active pickups/electronics. There is a master volume control, two tone controls, an on/off switch for each pickup, and a master boost switch, which adds more bite to the sound for thicker tones.
Utilization
The design of this guitar is fairly ergonomic. It's not exactly the lightest guitar on the planet (weight is probably medium-heavy). The body is sculpted nicely however, and the fact that it uses a neck bolt system that is plate-less (a-la the Ibanez AANJ) makes upper fret access excellent. It's definitely an instrument I'm comfortable gigging with and using, being confident that I can really fly on.
Getting a good sound out of this instrument is not that difficult. The pickups are active and have a similar tonal quality to EMGs of the time. The resulting tone is somewhat dated sounding/compressed, but if you're actively seeking that eighties shred tone, it's a perfect match. The cleans and the drive tones have a certain unique quality that is not for everyone to be fair, but if you're completely not a fan of the electronics they can be replaced.
Sounds
This guitar was designed/built to capture that shred vibe that so many people were after in the late eighties. As tastes progressed from the era of single humbuckers and modded Marshalls to more complex rigs involving active pickup shred guitars and piles of rackmount gear, instruments like this became more in vogue.
Clean tones are fairly crisp and punchy. There isn't much of that classic warmth that you'd hear in a more typical Strat type guitar, but there's enough extra compression and high end to really sound crisp. To that end, it makes a great recording guitar for someone who needs those kinds of polished tones.
The drive tones have much the same complex. It's not that it's a bad sounding guitar by any means... it is just far less raw and ripping than passive setups. It's quite clear sounding for rhythm work in the hard rock vein, and that polished compression gives leads a certain smooth quality that works especially well for neoclassical type settings where lots of notes are being played.

As tastes progressed from the era of single humbuckers and modded Marshalls to more complex rigs involving active pickup shred guitars and piles of rackmount gear, instruments like this became more in vogue.
Clean tones are fairly crisp and punchy. There isn't much of that classic warmth that you'd hear in a more typical Strat type guitar, but there's enough extra compression and high end to really sound crisp. To that end, it makes a great recording guitar for someone who needs those kinds of polished tones.
The drive tones have much the same complex. It's not that it's a bad sounding guitar by any means... it is just far less raw and ripping than passive setups. It's quite clear sounding for rhythm work in the hard rock vein, and that polished compression gives leads a certain smooth quality that works especially well for neoclassical type settings where lots of notes are being played.

I put on sale this rare Japanese Yamaha SE250 1986 Color Powder Blue, has the advantage of having home a very nice piece of furniture, in the beginning it was a guitar midrange and Yamaha we know what that means. Nevertheless I have invested in substantial improvements: - Bridge Pickup Gibson 498 switchable zebra with push-pull - Neck Pickup taken from a Fender YJM Signature (the bridge, sounds tremendous and grain) - All improved and Jack Electronics Switchcraft - Yamaha MIDI System installed G1D Brand - Floating Bridge Floyd Rose Lic extracted from a Yamaha Pacifica 721 90s - Dunlop Dual Design Straplocks - New selector 3 position pickup change - Perfect fit with Elixir strings 009-042 - In case gift brand new black padded Rockbag. The guitar has frets perfect (really!) despite his age, it sounds very hard-rock (the 498 influences), soft touch and lends itself to large accelerations with full control. The sound is defined and a great vintage tone with touch funk in single-coil mode. The body is shaped like a Musicman, speaking, characteristic of this series of Yamaha 80. Have I ever seen one for sale but never this color (is original, not repainted) ... The hybrid system allows MIDI signal between guitar and synth, while both separately. Obviously the guitar can be used as a conventional electric without using MIDI with normal Jack ... You can test in Pinar de Chamartin Madrid area. Telecaster change JPN (MiJ, CiJ) or Road Worn, or Explorer USA / JPN adjusting differences if any ... Any questions, I'm here. Greetings..........http://www.guitarristas.info/anuncios/yamaha-se250-1986-upgrades-midi/221735

Yamaha Guitars , 80's and 90's updated their status.
Just had a friend come down to London to check out a beat-up but nice-playing Weddington Special. It was a trade-in at the local music store. Cool tones, lightweight, nice neck, scooped heel-less upper access. It was quite dinged-up but he planned to strip the finish to natural mahogany anyway. We both liked the guitar, and he seemed ready to grab it, at only $259!! Then he leaned over while holding the neck, and got a lot of pitch drop. More than usual, he pulled on the neck and it dipped going both forward and backward. So there is some weakness in the neck joint. That's a major repair issue, so he passed on it. So close to LP Jr-type fun, but no cigar.

Ty Tabor's Custom Yamaha AES D6 Electric Guitar FOR SALE EBAY !! This was Ty's number one Drop 6 touring guitar during the King's X "Ogre Tones" era. It was also one of two Drop 6 guitars used while recording "Ogre Tones".
Original artwork by Aron Mardo. This Yamaha is truly one-of-a-kind. Other than a few normal-use scratches on the back the guitar's finish is in good shape. The pickup switch selector has broken off but still switches pickups with no problem. This is something found on a lot of Ty's guitars. He usually left them broken off so that they wouldn't protrude as far. The toggle is included in case you wish to attach it back. Also, Ty's personal fret marks (drawn with a silver pen on the backside of the neck) are left on. The guitar has a big and warm tone. The plastic covers on the back of the guitar still have the original protective coverings. So do most of the tuner backs. Comes with a very used hard shell case.
Shipping to US only.
(note: that is glare with trees reflecting on the gloss finish in the pictures)... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ty-Tabors-Custom-Yamaha-AES-D6-Electric-Guitar-/200908194916?pt=Guitar&hash=item2ec70fc464

Not related I know but deserves utmost respect.... Happy Birthday one day late to a very inspirational friend of mine, Randy Rhoads , born DEC 6, 1956. And taken from us waaaaaaaaaaaay to soon, Love ya Randy !! Rest in Peace ....Randall William Rhoads (December 6, 1956 – March 19, 1982) was an American heavy metal guitarist who played with Ozzy Osbourne and Quiet Riot. A devoted student of classical guitar, Rhoads combined his classical music influences with his own heavy metal style. Despite his short career, Rhoads is a major influence on neo-classical metal, is cited as an influence by many guitarists, and is included in several "Greatest Guitarist" lists............BORN IN 1956, WOULD BE 56 THIS YEAR, WORLD MUST BE ENDING, LOVE YOU BUD! CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU ......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWvp9Cd6HUo

Paul Hanson, with a Yamaha Pacifica 1221M ,virtuoso guitarist and the author of SHRED GUITAR, presents this system for improvising both rhythm and lead parts in metal and rock. Hanson carefully demonstrates the various techniques for mastering the art of soloing such as hammer-ons, pull-offs, sweep licks, and vibrato. He also lays the foundation for rock improvisation by teaching blues scales with the aid of graphics that allow musicians who cannot read music to follow along. An excellent primer on improvisation, Mr. Hanson program deserves to be in the library of any aspiring rock or metal guitarists.https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=2744ZkUNQfo

Yamaha Guitars , 80's and 90's wrote on Yamaha Guitars's timeline.
I would like to say thank you to Yamaha Guitars for there support for my page Yamaha Guitars 80's and 90's, My goal is to document via photo Albums all the vintage Yamaha guitars from that era, and help those collectors find parts that are no longer made as well as keep collectors posted when something they are looking for surfaces for sale, so far so good, we have helped people fix their vintage guitars, told them where they can find or purchase parts they are looking for, and gave restorers a photo album for reference so they can see what their project is missing as well as how it is set up, If you are a fan of or Avid collector of these vintage Yamaha Guitars from the 80's and 90's then come LIKE us !! Peace !!

Yamaha Guitars , 80's and 90's updated their status.
For those who are New here, Welcome !, to the Yamaha 80's + 90's porn site, LOL !! LOTS OF VINTAGE POINTY AXES for you to identify, compare to, look at , get History of what I believe was one of their most creative times, unfortunately they could not afford to continue on this path because it was not very profitable for them. Anyway, If you see a posting here of a guitar you like, click on that photo, then mouse your arrow to the middle right of the photo and an arrow will appear allowing you to page through the whole Album of that specific guitar, please like and feel free to comment on any photos, or you can click above on the word photos, then select Albums, there is an Album for each of Yamahas guitars in that era showing photos of them, not every one yet but we are working on it and building it as we go, your comments and likes encourage us to keep this going, and it seems to be working well. Please keep sharing your photos, asking questions, and posting information, we are establishing an archive here for old and new collectors and fans alike. Thank you very much for all of your interest and support, we are growing stronger day by day !!! Peace, I will end with one of my favorite quotes...“When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.”
