SA500 model from the Yamahas Hollow series has 1960s written all over it. From the big double-cut body and two-piece bridge, to dual humbucker pickups and 22-fret fingerboard. This affordable hollow-body comes with archtop construction and set in neck. Body of this gorgeous six-stringer is made of maple back, sides and top. Instead of the maple necks, Yamaha likes to combine the maple-made hollow-bodies with mahogany necks to add more strength and low end to the tone. Bridge section on this model is equipped with a tune-o-matic bridge in the front and a vintage tailpiece in the back. Yamaha humbuckers are in charge of the tone on SA500. Mahogany neck is made of a single piece of wood and its topped with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
