Yamaha SA 2000s - 1987 - Close to Mint

I bought the Yamaha new from Banks Music York in 1988. I particularly wanted the "S" version and had to wait a few months for Banks to get me this.

It really is in Fantastic condition and completely original and given its 39 years of age and very close to Mint - It is certainly collector grade, it's pretty to with the red/cherry burst. Very little play wear with no fret gouges, it has only had infrequent home use (I haven't played the Yamaha for the last 18 years), it was too nice to play that much when I had other guitars that I didn't mind throwing around. No breaks or repairs and the guitar is pretty much unmarked. There is some wear to the bridge and bridge pickup where I have palm muted but very minimal and the other hard ware is in great shape.

it plays beautifully and sounds the business with a myriad of tones especially with the coil tap feature. The neck is quite slim with a nut width of 43.0 mm and a depth of 20.5 mm and is a joy to hold, the guitar weighs 8.9 lbs. All the electrics work perfectly.

Comes with the original Yamaha case and keys which is in great shape to.

Very sorry to see it go but its just gathering dust at the moment.

I think this is very competitively priced from what I can see on the market, especially given condition and this being the "S" variant but I will listen to offers but anything wild will be ignored, I don't need to sell.

Shipping & Collection Details:

Due to the pristine, collector-grade nature of this instrument, collection in person is highly preferred - Aberdeenshire. This allows you to inspect the guitar and guarantees its safe transit.

If shipping is required, it will be packed to professional standards (fully detuned, neck supported, and boxed) and shipped via a specialist courier.
