Accordingly, the Japanese-made Yamaha SG now offers a successful blend of traditional and modern features in the form of the classic mahogany/maple tonewood combination, high-quality Seymour Duncan USA pickups and premium hardware from TonePros, Graph Tech and Grover. including Hardshell Case!
Classic tonewoods for body and neck
The body and neck construction of the Yamaha SG1802 follows the decades-old recipe for a solid tonal foundation, relying on a powerfully designed African mahogany body finished with a solid maple top. Thanks to the two famous Cutaways, the SG body ensures easy access to the high fingerboard positions. A 3-strip mahogany neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard serves as a haptic base for the picking hand, which skillfully underlines nimble layer play and endless bendings thanks to a flat 13.75" radius and medium jumbo fretting.
The Yamaha SG1802 marks the reissue of the famous 1974 Yamaha SG with some welcome modernized upgrades.
Seymour Duncan SP90-3 Custom P90 Pickups
As a perfect balance between direct, attack-rich single coil sounds and warm and full humbucker sounds, the two Seymour Duncan Custom P90 pickups in neck and bridge position provide a flexible sound that is up for any fun from singing cleans to raw gain sounds. The two single coils of the US pickup giant impress here with their warm and direct midrange resolution and increased output. Both pickups are controlled via a 3-way toggle switch and separate controls for Volume and Tone.
