USED YAMAHA / SL-800S Oil Stain [11]

A genuine Japanese-made Les Paul type guitar The meticulous craftsmanship befitting a premium grade

The SL-800S, a premium model from YAMAHA's SL series manufactured in the 1970s and 80s.
It is highly regarded as one of the most refined Japanese-made Les Paul-type guitars of its era.

Featuring the classic maple top + mahogany back construction with a set neck joint.
It delivers a substantial weight, rich, focused mid-low frequencies, and extended sustain.

Some models feature Yamaha's unique Bi-Sound system, allowing you to switch between the thick sound of a humbucker and the nuanced character of a single-coil pickup.
Its appeal lies not only in rock and blues but also in its versatile, easy-to-handle character across genres.

Unlike modern lightweight designs, this is a solidly resonant instrument reminiscent of classic Japanese-made guitars.
Recommended for those seeking quality craftsmanship and a commanding presence.

The neck shows slight warping, and the truss rod is fully adjusted.
Setup including fret leveling has been performed, but slight buzzing may occur when played aggressively.
