Yamaha SA2200 Japan - 2014

The Yamaha SA2200 stands as one of the company’s most respected semi hollow designs, admired for its blend of classic tone and modern accuracy. Built during a strong era for Yamaha’s professional line, the SA2200 was designed to offer the warmth and depth associated with traditional semi hollows while maintaining the stability and clean workmanship that define the brand.

This example is in excellent original condition. The laminated maple body shows attractive figuring, the binding is neatly executed and the gloss finish highlights the guitar’s graceful curves. It feels solid yet responsive with a lively acoustic resonance and a neck that immediately feels approachable.

The dual humbuckers deliver a clear and balanced voice with sweet treble detail, musical mids and a focused low end. Chords ring with fullness and definition and single note lines carry a smooth, melodic character suited to jazz, fusion and modern session playing. The semi hollow construction adds natural bloom without sacrificing control, allowing the guitar to respond dynamically while remaining steady at higher volumes. Playability is easy and consistent thanks to precise fretwork and a well set up neck.

The guitar comes in its original Yamaha hard case and remains a strong example of one of the brand’s finest semi hollow instruments.
