This electric guitar suits players who appreciate vintage instruments with a solid build and authentic sound character. Whether you’re a hobbyist looking for a guitar that stands out at jam sessions or a collector seeking a playable classic from Japan’s 1980 guitar craftsmanship, this model fits well.

Original Yamaha Japan pickups give you that classic tone with clarity and warmth, perfect for blues, rock, or jazz styles.
Neck dimensions (21.6 mm at the 1st fret, 24.1 mm at the 12th) and a nut width of 41.3 mm provide comfortable playability for a variety of hand sizes and playing techniques.
Original pots with push/pull function allow nuanced volume and tone adjustments, giving you control over your sound dynamics.
Frets remain in good condition with minimal wear, ensuring smooth playability and reliable intonation.

Guitarists who value vintage tone, solid construction, and manageable weight will find a lot to appreciate.

Q: Is the missing tremolo arm a big issue? A: It limits use of tremolo effects but leaves the core playing experience intact.

Q: Is this a good choice for daily practice? A: Absolutely, its comfortable neck and reliable frets make it well-suited for regular use.
