Yamaki YST-450YSB/M ST72 model
Yamaki is a famous acoustic guitar manufacturer. Many people here is looking for Yamaki made acoustic.
The founder is Teradaira brothers.
The elder brother managed the Dion Corporation which is distributing the Founder, Joodee and Yamaki.
The younger brother was managing the Yamaki factory (Before establishing the Yamaki/Dion, they were working for
Zen-On).
This stratocaster model was maybe made in early 1980's or late 1970's.
This guitar was made with great care.
The condition of this guitar is proper. However, when I got this guitar, previous user changed
pickguard with painting. Also bridge parts were rusted very much.
I have out the brand new pickguard, stainless screws and springs on bridge and knobs.
It is over 25 years old guitar, so the outlook is not like brand new, has many scratches and dents.
However, as you can see, they are not serious damage.
The body is probably SEN 2-3P(lokks like 2P). The neck is 1P but the head is 2P.
It is soft V grip type. On the neck set plate, there is a hole said "Epochal Rod System".
Maybe from this hole, we could adjust the truss-rod. It said patented.
I personally think Yamaki is one of good JV guitar compare with other brand.
Good era's great guitar !
