Anyone on here have an idea if thisguitar is of quality...ive been minding this for more years than i care to remember...its belong to my sister who has been unwell most of her life..i believe it cost a bit back in the day.im not selling it just wondering if its actually worth minding so well..she played spanish classical with it and was a very good musician..any info on its quality or lack of would be appreciated thanks

They are good and hold thier tune, nice case too. Not the best in the world but by no means the worst too. 

£200 to £300 as with everything depends what folk want to pay though, and how bad you need the cash! 

It's a 1969 - 72 if you showed serial number could give you exact date.

[05/08, 09:31] Yamaha are a really decent guitar make - quite underrated cos there very basic, no nonsense things, but really decent
[05/08, 09:33] That one is a Japanese made one from late 60s - early seventies it seems, would have been quite a high end mass produced guitar at the time, a really decent one, quite a few reviews of them on line,
[05/08, 09:33] Really decent guitar by the looks of it

 

That's what my brother told me

You never know maybe a young family member will take up guitar and you got a nice guitar for them to start with.  I know my brother's got my dad's very first electric guitar . Banged and knocked and severely weathered but still plays great . My brother's already said one of my kids can have it if they ever take up guitars . Thing my brother told me about guitars is they never lose their "cool" despite age.  If you gave your kid your old 2cv as a first car they might be a bit embarrassed to drive around with it . If you give them your old guitar it instantly has a wow factor when brought out of its case with other guitarists
