I picked this up a couple of weeks ago, $120 at a gc.
Slim neck, nice pickups, great finish and details.
Model#302s

Nice! I think those Yamaha Pacificas are great guitars!

Sweet indeed, me likey. I'm a big fan of both acoustic and electrics by Yamaha, nice score Tony.

Agree too. I've had a 102s, a 402s, and a couple of Pacifica strats, a 112 and 312, I think. The teles were better than the strats.

For $120, you got a hell of a good deal! I thought the 102s was about the best tele for the money I had ever seen. I think I paid $200 brand new. I put a SD Jeff Beck in the bridge and then lent it to my nephew. That was about 4 or 5 years ago, and I still haven't seen it back. Which reminds me, now that he's off to college without it...it's time to recover it.

Congrats!
