The Yamaha TSG



The TSG


This guitar is another very rare item. Made in 1985 a limited run said to be of 200 but apparently only 60 or so were actually made. There is one currently, August 2016, on Ebay Japan for sale at a Buy it now price of $4,800. The pictures shown are from that sale and other than that there is virtually no information out there on this guitar. Brief specs Body: Maple Top / Mahogany Back Fingerboard: Ebony Neck: Mahogany Weight: 4.08 kg, anymore info appreciated.
