example from the very first production year of the model (serial: 5N01021, July 1987).

Unlike the more common Taiwanese-built RGX series guitars, this one was built in Yamaha’s Hamamatsu factory, the same facility responsible for their flagship SG2000 and high-end SA series.

🔥 Why This Guitar is Special True MIJ build: Most RGX612Ds were made in Taiwan; this is a Japan-built, Hamamatsu factory piece. Left-handed rarity: Very few left-handed RGX guitars were ever made in this era, making this extremely hard to find. Early production: Serial dates it to July 1987 – the very first year of catalogued RGX612D production.

Vintage character: The naturally aged finish gives it a unique look and vintage authenticity. 💰 Value Comparable right-handed Taiwanese RGX612Ds trade in the €350–600 range. Given this guitar’s Japan build, left-handed rarity, and early production date, it sits in a completely different class. Serious collectors of Yamaha and rare MIJ superstrats will recognize its value. 📦
