YAMAHA SG1000 'Relic' 1980s - CSB cherry sunburst - Japan Import
Our users rate Reverb
A legendary Japanese model from the 80s: the Yamaha SG1000 Cherry Sunburst, made in Japan and famously played by Carlos Santana.
It lives up to its reputation, delivering perfect tones thanks to its original Alnico 5 humbucking pickups, which feature coil-splitting capabilities. It offers a rich array of sonic possibilities, with two tone controls (push-pull), two volume controls, and a 3-way selector switch. Excellent tuning stability.
Truly breathtaking sound—a professional-grade guitar.
*Hand-selected and imported from Japan by us*
Very good overall condition; it has undergone a "relic" treatment by a Japanese luthier, giving it a superb look. Frets are in good condition: 7/10 (see photos for details). Excellent sustain and resonance.
