Yamaha FG-180 Red Label 70' Jumbo Acoustic
This Trade in Yamaha FG-180 Acoustic is good shape barring it's age. This red label acoustic may have a solid top but it's age mellowed the wood to a nice warm sound.
Small marks all over the body but the bridge and neck joint are still attached.
My luthier set it up wirh extra light strings so it has a nice feel.
I found a quote on a guitar forum:
"The FG180 among all the Red Label models has somehow managed to achieve a reputation far beyond what a humble all-laminate construction guitar should be enjoying!
That said it was my first decent guitar when I bought mine, new, from Ivor Mairants Musicentre in London in 1969, now sadly defunct. Cost me £40 and some change.
As mentioned above cosmetic condition governs what someone might be prepared to pay, but a player would be fortunate to find one in playable condition and which doesn't need a neck reset."
