1978 Yamaha SG1000 in tobacco sunburst.Bought from Magazine and Apollo 440 guitarist, Noko who used the guitar for Magazine rehearsals to get the authentic Magazine sound.There was no pickguard with it when I bought it (and the last owner has filled the retaining holes - common amonst Yamaha SGs - very few people keep them on) and the machine heads are not original (though they are off another Yamaha of approximately the same age and look and work fine - they're the same as on my red late '70s SX-800B). The pickup selector switch works perfectly but has a slightly 'loose' feel to it suggesting that long-term it may need replacing. It's a cool guitar that plays and sounds exactly as it should.Thanks for your interest!Let me know if you have any questions..
