Default Yamaha FG 461S

Just moved into a new office and would like a cheapish acoustic for noodling on.And to leave at work

Don't fancy taking my D15-M and my LX1 gets noodled to death at home

Seen a Yamaha FG 461S for sale...Can't play before I play so its a gamble.

Thoughts...I fancy an oldish Yammy...I have heard some good things about them. Anyone own one?

I'm open to suggestions but my only stipulation is it must have a solid top.

Cheers

G

Default Fg461S

SPECIFICATIONS:
FG461S
Year(s) Sold: 1993-99 *
Original MSRP(US$): $679.00 *
Top: Solid Spruce *
Back / Sides: Indian Rosewood *
Neck: Mahogany *
Fingerboard: Rosewood *
Bridge: Rosewood *
Color(s): Natural *
Tuners: Gold *

So, solid top, yes. Those were nice, lot of finish and the neck is the big risk. If its cheap enough I'd say go for it.

Just sold a FG460-12SA 12 string last week. It was a great guitar and played easily. Yamaha's are generally pretty good instruments at their price point.
