These early SG's included the Yamaha SG 30, 35, 50, 70, 90 and here the now famous Yamaha SG-175.  The Yamaha SG-175 was essentially the top of the range of the SGs. SG175 is a true killer guitar with a phenomenal playability and versatile sound as can be seen on Carlos Santana's moonflower live recordings. This is a truly great electric guitar with a good solid feel, it plays like a dream, fluid and has been set up with with low action.

Yamaha SG-175 guitars were made from 1974 till 1976 in translucent  red, black and natural wood. Comes with original case. Postage reflects value and insurance.
