Beautiful 1967-1972 made in Japan Yamaha hollowbody electric guitar. Top of the range SA-50 model (others were SA-30 and SA-20). Upmarket fretboard and headstock inlays. Sounds great and is easy to play, with low action.
Good condition with no major damage. Some fret-wear but seems fine to me (this is subjective, you may want them replaced) Major horizontal scratches on headstock, holes in headstock from original tuners, minor dents and scratches as pictured. Missing vibrato bar.
I've had this guitar for about 10-15 years. The previous owner replaced the Yamaha with Gotoh tuners and removed the pickguard and f-hole baffles (f-holes were covered with thin plastic; most guitars have open f-holes so I consider this an improvement). There are screw holes where the pickguard used to be screwed in. I've tried to photograph as best I can given the photo limit.
