1972 Yamaha FG-180 – Red Label Nippon Gakki – Made in Japan
Dreadnought-style body, select spruce top, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck with 14/20-fret rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays and three-per-side nickel-plated tuners.
Often described as the “poor man’s Martin” – the Yamaha FG 180 possibly started more of the careers of aspiring singer songwriters during the 1970’s than any other guitar. This particular one all original and is in fantastic condition considering its 52+ years – I small ding on rear bottom edge is all to really report (see last picture). The guitar come complete with original Selmer case which is in a similar condition.
