« Yamaha SGV 300 »

I got this guitar on trade in for my Fender super strat deluxe, some people think that was stupid but i can hear the difference.I had no intentions of getting a new guitar, i just liked the way it looked and tried it out. The price tag said $600 canadian at Morris Music in S.J/N.B great helpful staff.

The first thing that grabbed me about this guitar(besides its looks and great paint job) was the pick ups and the various tones they produced, it sounded a bit like a jaguar.It was also nice to use a tremolo and not have it lose its tune.

i have only two beefs with this product, #1 being the damn clear sticker they put on the pick gaurd was hard to get off and left sticky crap behind. #2 when I get a new guitar (this is number 7) i like to get a booklet and warranty card which i did not get.

For any price this is a well made guitar, from its unique headstock to its 60's style tremolo unit. The Alder body is a nice touch and well painted very tight guitar.Dont let the Crazy look or the price tag throw you off.

So if you are looking for a new guitar,from surf to Crust and back, try this out!
