Yamaha SA700 Super Axe Persimmon Red 1978

Yamaha SA700 Super Axe Persimmon Red 1978This is Yamahas version of Gibson ES of the 1970s, and like many Yamahas from that time period, this one makes a very strong case for the brand. It is beautifully crafted and built for precision. Weve been really pleasantly surprised by these pickups too. They are perfectly balanced, plenty of body and warmth with a nice bite when you dig in, the tone of this guitar is unbelievable and so versatile, easily going from rock to more sophisticated jazzier

The guitar featured classic Les Paul Standard appointments with high-output pickups and a choice of neck profiles
