Absolutely fabulous vintage 12! I have had the pleasure of owning some incredible high-end 12 string guitars and this one is right up there with some that are 3 times the price! Plays great with nice low action, flat top, comfortable neck and incredible sound! Yamaki guitars continue to blow me away, you will be seeing many more of them pop up in my shop. I believe this slotted head model is from 1971, I could be off by a year or 2 but not much.

This guitar is structurally great and has no notable damage or issues aside from the clouding in the finish which you can see in the pictures. Tuners are great, neck looks great, beautiful abalone on the top.
