Re: Yamaha g-90a classical
I have found out that the serial numbers for Yamaha guitars get recycled every 10 years
the 1st digit is the year so if its a 5 and made in the 70's the year would be 1975
the next 2 digits are the month and the 2 after that are the day
and the last digits are the sequential serial number
51007617 which indicates it was number 617 made 1975 Oct 10th
The A in G90-A just means a slight modification of the original G-90
And no solid wood was used in the model, so its not worth getting my warped neck replaced [time to buy a new one :) ]
The Yamaha people are excellent at responding to any questions e-mail to them
for Canada the address was guitar@yamaha.ca
Hopes this helps someone.

Mine was built in 1974 on june 28th and is guitar # 255.
