1984 Yamaha Lord Player Standard LP-600 Brown Sunburst, Near-Mint w/ Case

$1,549.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 1984 Yamaha Lord Player Standard model LP-600 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. The LP-600 was produced concurrently with the perennially popular Yamaha SGs; as the Yamaha SGs gained the rightful nickname of "Les Paul Killer," this LP-600 is equally worthy of such accolades, with the same tonewood ingredients as its Gibson counterpart. To avoid running afoul of Gibson, the LP-600 was never offered in the USA, with models rarely surfacing outside of Japan or the European market.

Featuring a solid mahogany body (including the carved top), mahogany neck, and rosewood fingerboard, this LP-600 is lively and powerful sounding, and the craftsmanship is evident in the great playability and classic range of Les Paul tones. The Alnico V humbuckers are clear and dynamic with a touch of growl and bite. The neck position humbucker offers thick, full mids, airy lows, and fat highs, while the bridge pickup provides focused cut. Additionally, the push/push “Bi-Sound” coil taps at the Tone knobs enable single coil sparkle and snap. This LP-600 weighs 10lbs 1oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
