stedge Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Looking for a late 70s to early 80s Yamaha SG/SBG with through neck (not the set neck). Prefer the model 2000 but 1500 and maybe 2500 OK. 3000 maybe, too, but I wanna try that embedded bras honker under the bridge. You know I like old heavy schecters. So why not one of these? I know unlikely, but anyone have one you are not using and want to pass along? I will check the thread but you can also email direct a eaphoto at gmail dot com Thanks.

The Shark Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I love them, but they are heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM OF HAMER Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Good Luck! I hope you find one that works for you................mostly price wise. Many of the desirable Yamaha guitars appear to be overseas these days and are super high priced. I remember buying a great condition SG-3000 for $600.00. Bought several nice condition SG-2000s for $1,200.00. The SG- 2500 can be tough find and if so highly priced and overseas,I owned one.Great guitar.................all the SG models I had WERE heavy but then so were the Weddington Customs I had,I loved them all anyway wish I had them all back,only have one Yamaha currently All were/are great guitars! Couple of pics of mine from back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stedge Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 There you go. Yeah, not as cheap as long ago. C’est la vie. Just missed a 2000 for $1100 on reverb. There are some listed but not selling at 17-1800. The rare/special runs seem to be big bucks - the purple and 2500, etc. At least, big at the ask. As usual, I think a lot of asks are dreams. But I am guilty of that, too, sometimes. Anyway, I am ready to buy if the right one comes along. Scratchin’ an itch - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM OF HAMER Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I had most of the Big $$$$ Yamaha Electric and some acoustics as well. The build quality was phenomenal,the one that stuck with me the longest was the Weddington.............the Custom. The high # SG line were really fine guitars I hope you land a great one,you won't be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
