1972 Yamaha FG-160 Green Label – Made in Japan – Excellent Vintage Condition
1972 Yamaha FG-160 Green Label – Made in Japan – Excellent Vintage Condition
A beautifully preserved example of a 1972 Yamaha FG-160, built during the highly regarded Nippon Gakki era in Hamamatsu, Japan.
These early FG series guitars have earned a strong reputation for their reliability, tone, and understated quality, and this one is a standout.
Condition
Presented in remarkable condition for its age. The spruce top has aged into a warm, golden hue, with only light, honest signs of use. The back and sides are clean, the neck is straight, and the guitar plays comfortably across the board.
A well-kept vintage piece that has clearly been looked after.
