A rare and highly sought-after 1983 Yamaha SG1000N – made in Japan and only produced from 1983 to 1985.

This model features a slightly narrower body and slimmer neck profile than the standard SG1000, making it lighter and more comfortable without sacrificing build quality or tone.

Loaded with Yamaha’s original Spinex humbuckers and the push/push coil tap system, offering a wide tonal range from full humbucking power to crisp single-coil clarity.

This example is in excellent condition for its age, with only light signs of play. Frets show minimal wear and are well crowned and polished. The neck plays beautifully with a smooth low action, and the electronics and hardware are all in perfect working order. The top nut is 43mm and this guitar weighs 9.69lb.

A beautifully made vintage MIJ Yamaha with a lovely aged patina, ready for stage or studio.

Supplied with a quality Hiscox hard shell case.
