Classic tonewoods for body and neck

The body and neck construction of the Yamaha SG1820 follows the decades-old recipe for a solid tonal foundation, relying on a powerfully designed African mahogany body finished with a solid maple top. Thanks to the two famous Cutaways , the SG body ensures easy access to the high fingerboard positions. A 3-strip mahogany neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard serves as a haptic base for the picking hand, which skillfully underlines nimble layer play and endless bendings thanks to a flat 13.75" radius and medium jumbo fretting.
