YAMAHA - SG-800
Yamaha SG-800 - Made in Japan (1981)
The SG-800 features a mahogany body, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, and a 24.75 inch scale length. The fingerboard is bound and fitted with split triangle inlays.
Electronics comprise two humbucking pickups manufactured for Yamaha, with pull/push pots that split the coils. Yamaha SG humbuckers from this era are generally voiced for a strong midrange, suitable for rock-oriented styles.
The SG-800 sat below the SG-1000 and SG-2000 in Yamaha’s lineup but shares the same core construction approach. Japanese-made Yamaha SG models from this period are well regarded for build consistency, neck stability, and long-term reliability.

Fitted with new D’addario strings as of: 16/12/2025.
