Second Hand 1980's Yamaha SA-700 Persimmon Red
With Hard Case
Yamaha SA700 Super Axe, persimmon red, made in Japan 1980's. The Super Axe series came out in the mid 70s, mixing some Yamaha original ideas with a bit of inspiration from Gibson's ES335. This one dates to 1982, making this among the last SA700 models made before they switched to the SA900 model, which was produced in Taiwan. The neck is a bit slimmer than the earlier examples, similar to a Gibson 'Slim 60s' shape or a Fender Japan vintage C, which feels super comfy. The tone on offer is articulate, bright and thick, balancing a full low end with singing sustain with a bell-like clarity on the top end. The bridge pickup is equal parts angular and creamy, while the neck pickup is glassy and fat.
