Description YAMAHA SG1500, manufactured in 1982 [The SG series from YAMAHA is known for its excellent sound] It has a long history, beginning in 1966 and continuing to be a super long-seller to this day Since the introduction of the SG-3 (S302), the first SG series and YAMAHA's first electric guitar, in 1966, YAMAHA has been releasing high-quality and highly original guitars to the world. Until around 1971, YAMAHA's lineup of highly original models was at the top level in Japan, going against the trend of domestic manufacturers focusing on copying. However, on the other hand, the difficulty of use and low versatility due to their strong originality were issues. After a full model change in 1972, models based on Les Paul and other models began to appear, and with the introduction of the "SG-175" in 1974, the SG series took on its current form. At that time, Yamaha's SG series was not the only one to have a unique look, but the contents were quite practical, and many models were intermediate between the unique line that had been developed up until then and the general-purpose line that followed. After that, Santana's opinions were incorporated and the current style of SG was completed after a model change in 1976. This product is the SG1500 released in 1981. It is a relatively rare guitar that was produced in small numbers among the SG series, which was very popular at the time. The double cutaway, through-neck archtop body shape with 2 humbuckers, and the escutcheon has a structure that allows you to adjust not only the height but also the tilt by fixing the pickup at three points, which shows Yamaha's attention to detail. The controls are 2Vol, 2Tone, and a 3-way selector. Based on the serial number, we determined that this product was made in 1982. High-precision construction and good sound from Yamaha, made in Japan. The bi-sound switch allows you to make a variety of sounds, which is also one of the attractions of this product. The body is made of maple + mahogany, the neck is mahogany, and the fingerboard is made of rosewood, with 22 frets and 628 mm specifications. The neck and body are bound, and the metal parts are unified in gold, giving it a luxurious look. The pickups are equipped with two original YAMAHA humbuckers. The open type has good high-frequency penetration and a clear, powerful sound. In addition to controlling the 2Vol, 2Tone, and 3Way pickup select switches, the bi-sound system is turned on by pushing the Tone knob. A wide range of sound can be made by obtaining a single sound.
