{"product_id":"864917","title":"YAMAHA VINTAGE SC-1200 '78 Yellow Natural","description":"Since the early days of Japanese-made guitars in the 1960s, Yamaha has developed numerous original models with a strong sense of individuality. In particular, from the 1970s onward, they have produced hit models such as the SG and BB, earning high praise both domestically and internationally, especially among fans of Japanese vintage guitars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This latest arrival is an \"SC-1200,\" which, based on its serial number, appears to have been manufactured around 1978. It was the top-of-the-line model in the new series launched around 1977.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【body】\u003cbr\u003e The guitar weighs approximately 3.75kg. The body (wing material) is made of alder, with a shape reminiscent of an ST type, and is finished in a yellow natural color. There are some scratches, dents, and tarnishing on the metal parts, but the paint still retains its shine, and considering its age, it can be said to be in remarkably good condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【neck】\u003cbr\u003e The neck is a 5-piece maple\/mahogany construction with a rosewood fingerboard. It features a neck-through design. There are some small scratches on the back of the neck, but no major dents. The tuners function properly, although there is some slight variation in winding. The frets and nut show some slight wear and there is a slight tendency for the highs to rise, but there is no extreme buzzing or dead spots with the current string height. If you want to set a low action, we recommend leveling the frets. The nut width is approximately 41.8mm. It features a smart neck shape typical of Yamaha guitars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Electrical System]\u003cbr\u003e The controls are very simple, with just one volume and one tone knob, but the key is the three \"three-position phase switches.\" These switches allow you to toggle the phase of each pickup and turn it off, resulting in a total of 13 different combinations. While it doesn't have a bi-sound feature, it offers a wide variety of sounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Accessories: Soft case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 3.75kg\u003cbr\u003e Body Material: Alder\u003cbr\u003e Neck Material: Maple\/Mahogany, 5 pieces\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e Nut Width: 41.8mm\u003cbr\u003e Fret Width: 2.0mm\u003cbr\u003e Neck Thickness (1F\/7F\/12F): 21.3mm\/22.3mm\/22.8mm\u003cbr\u003e Pickups (Neck\/Bridge): YAMAHA CI (4.7kΩ\/4.8kΩ\/4.6kΩ)\u003cbr\u003e *The DC resistance value of the pickup is measured after passing through the control section.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Heartman Vintage Guitars is a specialty store for vintage guitars and basses operated by Ikebe Musical Instruments.","brand":"YAMAHA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43922486952049,"sku":"864917","price":723.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/864917_01.jpg?v=1786085150","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/zh-hans\/products\/864917","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
