The Story

1982 SG-1500

This is a rare '80s Yamaha SG you don't see in the United States (or anywhere outside of Japan) all that often! A 1982 SG-1500! This is a neck-through model with visible neck-through stringers that look so cool, two Yamaha humbuckers with push-push coil taps on the tone controls, and an adjustable saddle bridge! If you can't tell from the looks of it, this is a guitar that's rock solid and sustains for days. It's in great playing condition, but has some cosmetic blemishes with dents and dings throughout the body from being played, and there's finish clouding throughout. It's within the finish and cannot be buffed out, but obviously doesn't affect the feel or sound of the guitar. The original Yamaha case is included.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case
