Yamaha SA-1200s 1980 - Brown Sunburst

We are SOFT NOISE AUDIO, a vintage and second hand guitar dealership based in Dublin Ireland.

We aim to supply a wide range of rare and interesting vintage/second hand guitars, basses, along with a huge range or new high end boutique effect pedals and other rare treasures that can be viewed On our website.



On our SOFT NOISE AUDIO website we offer excellent hard to find second hand equipment at fair and reasonable prices.

We are self confessed gear nerds and as such our first aim is always to excite ourselves with the gear we bring in, believing that if we achieve that then our customers will be equally excited by our offerings.
We are tired of seeing the same items in every store we enter for as long as we can remember so we wanted to offer something different.

We get regular deliveries so we are always freshening up our inventory to keep things from getting stale.



New items will appear On our website multiple times a week!

We also are happy to chat so feel free to get in touch with any questions or to negotiate deals On our SOFT NOISE AUDIO website.



Capture the peak era of Japanese luthiery with this exceptional, collector-grade 1980 Yamaha SA-1200S. Produced for only a few short years, the SA-1200S stands out in the "Super Axe" lineup thanks to its premium carved solid spruce top and a resonant spruce/alder center block. This unique combination delivers an incredibly articulate, woody acoustic response that you simply cannot get from standard all-maple laminates.Featuring a striking, deeply aged Brown Sunburst finish, a silky-smooth bound ebony fingerboard, and its original six-digit stamped headstock serialization, this early-production piece oozes vintage character.Equipped with Yamaha's highly versatile Bi-Sound coil-splitting system, the push-push tone pots let you instantly drop from fat, warm humbucking jazz tones into snappy, biting single-coil lines. Weighing in at a highly comfortable ~8.4 lbs, this is the ultimate premium alternative to a vintage Gibson ES-335 for the discerning player, collector, or jazz-fusion enthusiast. Complete with all-original hardware.
