Hi, I have a legacy to a yamaha s'50 guitar and I'm learning to play the acoustic, electric and Spanish guitars and I wonder what kind and what qualities has the yamaha s-50 A guitar, thank you very much and greetings.

Re: Yamaha S-50A acoustic guitar
I got a yamaha S-50A accoustic in exchange for a $10 black & white polaroid camera in the early 1970's. It's seen better days, but I still play it most every day, and just love the feel of it. I use steel strings, and I prefer practising on it rather than my other 2 guitars, a 1961 Model 6120 Gretsch, and a 1973 semi-accoustic Fender Telecaster.

Cool bartering! Just shaved to saddle on mine to drop the action. I'm just a beginner, but all I read, the strings were too high off the neck. Were these guitars mad with that condition, cause it doesn't look like the neck is bent that much, maybe a slight warp, but looks like the bridge was always high...any comments...no truss rod I can see.
Just put folk steel strings on it.....sounds real deep, and resonates until i return from the can.

Sven, I have had one for years now, I am pretty sure you should have metal strings on that. Try Thomastik extra lite strings, sound is very nice.
Re: Yamaha S-50A acoustic guitar
Just got a S-50A as a 2nd guitar for 100 bucks cdn. came with nylon strings, sounds a bit plunky. There's a bit of a hook in the neck. Did these get made with truss rods. I'm afraid if I install steel strings it will get worse? Also is there a quick way to lower the saddle on the bridge to get lower action?

I've got one S-50A too
Re: Yamaha S-50A acoustic guitar
I believe they were a run of guitars made in the late 60's thru to early 70's. I havent an idea of what one in mint condition is worth HOWEVER if you contact a reputable music store someone there may be able to look it over and appraise it for you or recommend somebody who can.

Hi,
I have a yamaha I bought second-hand in January 1973 for £50. It's got a beautiful tone and is strung nylon. I have other guitars from the 70's also.
