Wow this is an old thread! I'm sitting here playing my FG 335 right now. I've had it since 1982 when I bought it from a friend in college that was moving and needed as much money as possible. Got it for fifty bucks. It's indestructible and like a fine wine these guitars get better with age! This is the one to take out by the campfire and camping. My Martin and my My Gretch are more for my gigs... the string action on this Yamahas a little high but still I can leave it out don't need to humidify it and it's built like a tank as some of you have said. My cousin picked it up and said it sounds even better than his Taylor Guitar. This one was probably made around or 77. Thanks for all the info about the wood, Spruce top mahogany sides Rosewood fretboard excetera.
April 2020 bump...mine was purchased from Sam Goody's at Smith Haven Mall, Long Island, NY on August 26, 1980 for $149.95. Still pristine, resonant and 100% original 40 years later...
