Sam Durie's Yamaha FG-360

 

 

The first email came from Sam Durie on February 26, 2016.


Hi,
I have a Yamaha FG-360 that I thought I bought in the late sixties but evidently it must have been later.
I bought it second- hand for£30 (I'm british).
I have never encountered a better instrument (except for a Guild for a tantalisingly short time).
My instrument was often borrowed by recording engineers because it had perfect parameters for recording purposes,I guess that also damns it,anyhow I'm kinda pleased that it's worthless cos it would be awful to sell it for rent.
It's been nothing but a joy to me in 45years.
I couldn't find a serial number under the soundhole but the crossbar on the bass side has weird crosshatching,
Sam Durie

Our thanks to Sam for sharing this info.
