The 1988 Yamaha AES1500 is a high-quality, Made-in-Japan semi-hollow body guitar known for its versatility in jazz, blues, & rock. It features a sycamore top with maple back/sides, a 25.5" scale length, and often includes DiMarzio Q-100 pickups with coil-splitting for P-90 to humbucker tones. These are highly regarded for their build quality, often compared to premium Gretsch or Gibson models.
