Description Brand: Yamaha String Configuration: 6 String Model: FG500 Model Year: 1969? MPN: Does Not Apply Body Type: Dreadnought Size: Full Size Country/Region of Manufacture: Japan Dexterity: Right-Handed UPC: Does not apply
Neck is straight,as pictured.. This has the old enclosed Yamaha tuners marked Yamaha, which were original to it, and the original truss rod cover which is the metal one, says Yamaha on it..
When I got this the top had the belly some of them get... had a reinforcement put on the bridgeplate, which brought it down some, it is quite playable to the 12th fret. I seriously dislike it when a guitar is not. Top is still not perfectly flat, but is close. Pictures of the string height at 12 are here That is the only work I've had done on it, and probably the only work Ever done on it, from what I see..This guitar has been played, it has little dings there is some finish wear from pick use around the neck, pictured, otherwise seems to have been treated rather well for the last 45 years. LOW START PRICE, once the auction has started I will end it only if someone meets the buy it now price, which is 900 dollars. Bid often and early, cheers.Shipping costs below are estimates, I will take it to the post office and get a quote before billing.
