Jeff Shubert's Yamaha FG-360

Hi David,

 

While doing some research on my Yamaha FG-360 guitar I came across your page.  I too have a FG-360 guitar that was given to me as a Christmas present by my parents in the early 80's.  They bought the guitar at a pawn shop in PA for $75.00.  In your writing, you requested serial numbers from these guitars.  My number is 040403, indicating build date of April 3, 1974.  I also have and currently play most everyday a, 1955 Martin D-28.  This guitar was purchased new by my Grandfather in 1955 for $125.00.  He taught me how to play and when he past away, my family gave the guitar to me.  This is a cherished instrument and has a lot of history in my family.  At 52 years of age, I am hoping I can pass this guitar along to another family member to keep this piece of history going.

 

Thanks for your interest in the Yamaha FG-360 and your interesting writing.

 

Good Day......
