Members FrankenSteinberger Posted April 21, 2013 Members Share Posted April 21, 2013 Very nice--does one just walk into a guitar shop (in the USA) and buy one of those, or must it be ordered from overseas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members P. Hubbs Posted April 21, 2013 Author Members Share Posted April 21, 2013 In my opinion it has everything an ES 355 has, except the price tag.Sometimes these can be found at Ebay in the US. They Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kayd_mon Posted April 22, 2013 Members Share Posted April 22, 2013 The most drool-worthy Yamaha for sure. I would love to play one of those, but I've never seen one in person. HNGD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skybluegary Posted April 22, 2013 Members Share Posted April 22, 2013 Yamaha really need a kick in the nuts for not promoting their wares. These 2200's S(B)G's and other higher end guitars are so good, at far more reasonable prices compared to other well-known brands, yet they're unknown to many or overlooked by those who are only aware of their cheaper gear, and they're so difficult to get hold off.

Must have been when they stopped producing the SA2000 (though I heard of a 2100 model but that's exceedingly rare). Just a guess, early 90's?

Members P. Hubbs Posted May 17, 2013 Author Members Share Posted May 17, 2013 Jkater: if so the former owner has changed the tuners on my guitar. Onelife: of course I could adjust.the height of the pickups. But I'm actually very satisfied with the "modern" sound the guitar has now. It has a long sustain, which often goes over to controlled feedback. Ah, beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P. Hubbs Posted May 28, 2013 Author Members Share Posted May 28, 2013 Now I have checked and adjusted everything on my SA2200. I have even polished the ebony fretboard with some furniture polish to get it seriously black. This weekend I adjusted the trossrod slightly; seems to be a wellbuilt guitar, everything is working properly I also checked the backside of the pickups. Since the former owner changed to Grover tuners, perhaps he changed the pickups too, since they sound so good? But no: the pickups had no number or logo, the backsides were just plain. Anyone who knows how the Yamaha Alnico V pickups looks on the backside? I know that Jkater changed his pickups a while ago:do you remember if thay had any logo or number on the backside?
