Offered here is the rare/vintage Yamaha AE1200S. I confess to be reluctantly selling this one as it is a fabulous Jazz box, well built and has a truly great tone. This guitar is just as good as an L5 and if you've done some research on the guitar you'll find a lot of positive reviews on the instrument. The guitar's in good condition, there are signs of 30 years wear and tare; small dints, metal on hardware faded/oxidized (mostly on tailpiece and bridge pickup) I've also had fitted a fishman piezo bridge which is wired as a stereo output. In the pictures you'll see I've got the original on with the fishman secured between bridge and bridge pickup. I will supply both bridges, each gives the guitar a slightly different tone depending on your own preference.
