Yamaha SBG-3000 (Cream White, OHSC, 1983, Excellent condition)The Yamaha SBG/SG-3000 guitar is the example of a top quality build guitar. Killer looks and great sound whichever way you set the tone/volume.It sports a mahogy body with maple cap, a proper thru neck, ebo fret board, mother of pearl split-wing fret-board position markers, abalone binding. Gold plated Hardware, Twin hum-buckers, coil tapping option. The guitar is heavy with lots and lots of sustain, although no brass sustain plate fitted under bridge like its brother SG-2000. The guitar is a real beauty with a cream aged finish with elaborate binding in abalone. It demonstrates the Yamaha luthiers’ craftsmanship and quite well finished with a great appearance, headstock decoration and triple ply black pick-guard.The Yamaha SBG-3000 is the top of the, range evolution from the renowned Yamaha SG-175 in the 1970’s made famous by musicians such as Carlos Santana, Stuart Adamson, Trevor Horn, Al DiMeola, Phil Manzanera and Bob Marley to name but a few. Although the guitar is heavy, it is a joy to play with low action and two powerful shielded double humbuckers (Spinex) create a loud clear and clean sound, but wait till you set your Valve Amplifier to gentle overdrive. Vintage original hard case included. Price £ 3450 ONO, Location Berwick upon Tweed. Can ship worldwide.
