Yamaha SG800 Cherry Sunburst 1980 MIJ

SG800-CSB

Used

The Yamaha SG-800, like the Yamaha SG-700, is a brother of the now very well renowned and famous Yamaha SG-2000, SG-1000, and the lesser known Yamaha SG-1500. All top class vintage instruments and getting increasingly harder to find.
The SG-800 was introduced as the follow up from the SG-700 and was produced from 1979-1981. Like its heavier predecessor it has excellent playability and low action with great tonal range, due to Coil Tapping options. 

The instrument has plenty of dings and scratches and the gloss laquer has been removed from back of the neck. Overall good playing condition!
