[SN 1188] USED YAMAHA / SX-800B Black [11]
A model from the Japanese-made āSX Series,ā produced from 1976 to 1979.
The SX-800B model features three single-coil pickups and silver-colored hardware.
It features a maple top and cedar back, a maple neck, and an ebony fingerboard.
Equipped with one volume and two tone controls, plus a 5-way pickup selector, it lets you enjoy a wide range of Stratocaster-like sounds.
With its unique double-cutaway shape and set-neck construction, this is a distinctive guitar that embodies the spirit of Yamaha from that era.
There are signs of wear, such as scratches and dents, throughout the instrument.
Signs of aging, such as rust and tarnish, are visible on the metal parts.
The pickguard shows signs of warping.
Overall, there is fading, discoloration, and cloudiness.
Because the area between the front and middle pickups is slightly raised, the first string may come into contact with it during aggressive picking or depending on your playing position, which can cause a muffled sound.
The neck shows some waviness, resulting in slight buzzing, but this does not interfere with normal use.
