Here for sale we have a Yamaha FG-502M acoustic guitar in Natural Open-Pore finish. Made in Taiwan, the FG-502M was offered in the early 2000's and featured an all-solid construction comprising an all Mahogany body, Mahogany neck  and 20 fret Rosewood fingerboard with matching bridge. The body is double bound, whilst the top is adorned with multi-strip purfling and rosette, as well as a tortoiseshell pickguard. A set of Chrome vintage-style tuning machines are fitted, completing a well-appointed instrument. 

 

The Satin finished Mahogany neck plays well, with its ‘C’ profile providing a comfortable playing experience, offering ergonomic thumb positioning up and down the neck. The Rosewood fingerboard feels smooth under the fingers, providing a smooth, consistent playing surface. The 16” radius is practical for a wide range of styles and playing techniques such as fingerstyle and chordal playing. The Dreadnaught body design fills the arms, offering a ‘connected’ feeling, whilst the lines of the body provide comfort in both seated and standing positions.

 

The Dreadnought body design delivers a blend of volume, power and timbral balance thanks to the Scalloped Bracing. This guitar provides a crisp mid range, warm bass and nuanced trebles providing a voice that covers a lot of styles. The all-solid construction ensures a lively and resonant playing experience with plenty of dynamic range. The Yamaha FG-502M projects superbly well, filling a room with ease, making this guitar perfect for a singer/songwriter or fingerstyle player.

    Aesthetic Condition:

    Headstock: Overall very good condition. A mild indentation at the bass side top corner of the headstock lightly pierces the finish. At the treble side rear top corner a light indentation does not pierce the finish. At the bass side front edge where the guitar would rest on a hanger there is light indentation which lightly cracks the finish.

     

    Neck: Overall very good condition. Light indentations to the rear of the neck are most notable behind the 10th fret but do not negatively impact the overall playability of the instrument. Any other markings to the neck and fingerboard are difficult to discern. 

     

    Body: Overall very good condition. Light indentations to the front face lightly crack the finish close to the bottom edge, discolouring the finish lightly. Light scratching and indentation to the side of the instrument is present at the treble side waist. Any other markings are difficult to discern. 

     

    Condition of Frets:

    The frets demonstrate light signs of use, not affecting playability. There is moderate material remaining for any light fret work the new owner may wish to perform.
