Selling my Yamaha SJ-180. It has been in the family for over 30 years, mostly collecting dust. I took ownership of it a little over 7 years ago and have maintained the guitar since that time.
It is in overall superb shape for a guitar that is nearing 40 years old. Tuners function well, fretboard has been continually oiled, I've continued to adjust the truss rod and keep the guitar in an appropriately humidified environment (my studio). Has a fresh set of strings and has been set up to keep playing. Comes with the original case. Fret wear is slight and has life left before a re-fret would be necessary. There is a plugged hole where it looks like someone decided they did not need a strap button any more. The repair isn't pro but it is not noticeable either (pictured). Come with the original case. There is a little bit of finish cracking near the neck joint where movement has occurred throughout the years, nothing is structurally wrong at all. The pick guard was re-glued and you can see the tiniest bit of over glue on the guard itself (pictured). I also inspected the sound board underneath and there are no cracks or warps.
I am selling this guitar so my wife and I can fund another musical project. It is a very responsive guitar despite having a gloss finish, and I would put it miles ahead of many other comparable guitars.
If you have any questions please ask. Thank you for looking!
