SG3000

Body and neck are integrated into a single structure that lets string vibration loop through the string, neck, and body, reducing energy loss and delivering long sustain. The cross maple design creates a T shape that blends the tonal qualities of maple; good for high-range sustain, and mahogany; good for low-range sustain, to produce long sustain that is well balanced over a wide tonal range.

Utilizing a full cover type pickup cover delivers a milder tone by minimizing high frequencies. Compared to plastic, the brass escutcheon promotes a more efficient flow of body vibrations to the pickup generating substantial sustain.

This precision the SG's smooth bodyline are beautifully accented with Mexican Abalon binding.

"Professional" engraved in bright gold across the pickguard denotes this instrument as one of Yamaha's finest.

Three-piece position makers on the neck are designed with Mexican Abalon and mid sections reflect the light.
