This Yamaha FG-170 made in Japan is from 1970-74 and just a beautiful vintage guitar. The neck is straight and frets are in very good condition. Action at the lower frets are perfect. However, at the 12th fret it is getting high. With a little TLC this will be a wonderful guitar. "Sounds awesome" I just cleaned the frets and oiled the fret board. Original tuners have been oiled and cleaned and work smoothly.

A recent purchase from Japan and paid more then I am asking. I am selling a few of my guitars to off set a new purchase $$$
