1982 Yamaha SG-1500
Premium Les Paul solid body
Showcased here, SG-1500 has inherited the same prototype and architecture from Yamaha's flagship solid body SG-2000. Major difference is fretboard, where SG-2000 features Ebony while SG-1500 has Rosewood. Some internet forums argue SG-1500 features dot inlay and chrome hardware, but here you see the variety, equipped with trapezoid inlay + gold hardware. And you may have heard about Push-push knobs, which enables tonality toggle between humbucking and single coil. 
An experienced Yamaha player would immediately notice this 1982 model does have no fogginess, which explains much cared maintenance over the last 35 years. Pickguard is missing, but you would rarely encounter the high-end Yamaha solid body with such an excellent quality like this one. Lastly, a vintage leather gigbag flies along to the next owner.
