YAMAHA Stratocaster SR-400

This is good condition yellow sunburst finished SR-400.
Only small dent is on the top. But as 30 years old guitar, this is one of beautiful condition
The production year is around 1976-77 from its serial number.
SR-400 is 2 PLY wood body. SR-500 is sold body. I'm not sure how much sound different
between 2 PLY and solid. The sound like not big different.

Yamaha is one of good buying JV guitar. Because, Japanese collectors are not paying attention so much.
The price is still reasonable as vintage (used) guitar. These Yamaha was made by Kasuga in 70's.
Well, the PU cavity is different from original Fender, but the tone is pretty good.

The PUs are all original. The neck, frets and electric circuits are all proper condition.
I have handled many Yamaha SR, but this is one of good condition SR.

The sound is pretty good. Many my friends and clients use Yamaha SR for main guitar instead of vintage Fender.
It is pretty interesting.

How the people evaluate the value of guitar. I think mostly just brand name.
