Maker: Yamaha

Model: SG1000-24

Condition: excellent


Description: 

One of Yamaha's most well known models as made famous by the likes of Carlos Santana, Al Di Meola, Phil Manzanera and numerous others.

Although over 40 years old this one remains in spectacular condition and is the more rare N version - the N referring to the thinner neck profile - the N was made in very small numbers and rarely shows up. Head stock and back of neck are excellent, frets show only light marks in the root chord position, body shows some light general surface marks/scuffs and a couple dings on the rear by the control cavity. Hardware shows some patina/aging other wise no major dings/dents/chips or deep scratches. Candy red metallic finish remains bright and vibrant. A fantastic playing, great looking example of the Yamaha classic.

Has been fully inspected and setup here by our team at Coast Sonic and is ready for a new home. Includes original Yamaha gigbag and all tags & case candy.
