- Hello People!
Thanks for joining me for more guitar restoration videos! This Yammy is in for a neck reset, new rosewood bridge and bone saddle. It was made in 1972 Taiwan

Great work. I’ve turned away Yammy neck resets thinking they were glued in w epoxy. Appreciate you showing it’s possible.
These were made needing a neck reset, they got the angle wrong from the beginning. I have an FG170 1974 and a friend has the FG180 both had the neck leaning too far forward from new.
I have one that must be early '70s. I'm going to restore it. They are magnificent.
Hi Scotty, anything you touch, turns into Gold ! A neck reset is indeed, pretty harsh ! Fortunately, this lovely Yamaha FG230 MIT, has been reset by the Harpeth Luthier, who turns anything to Gold ! Thanks for this nice video !
Great job on the reset and the video. I have a made in Taiwan 230 in the queue. Neck reset is looking likely.
Ive got a tiwan fg 200...early 70 tan it numbers twice. Block and neck. Needs reset....im gonba tryba
Great job. That thing sounds great! I have an FG365S that I bought new in '80 or '81. It's built like a tank, too. The action's getting a little high. I did have the bridge shaved about 15 years ago. It sounds good (was the best sounding guitar in my price range in the store when I bought it), but it really hasn't "opened up" over the years, probably due to it's robust build. I'll never sell it, though.
I have an Ibanez 12 string that was made in Japan. Artwood series. Mint condition.
Excellent repair! I use the same strings versus 10s in my Seagull 12. Sounds way better. Tune down to D# or D.
The neck reset is the most terrifying job on a guitar. Stressful. I admire your remarkable work. 🤩👌
A true talent. Awesome video....
Sounds Massive, one of the best 12 string sounds I’ve heard
Great job! That guitar sounds awesome, too! I dig the Zeppelin. Thanks Scotty.
Old Yamaha's sound so nice.
Very nice work. I love those old Yamaha guitars, even the higher end new ones. Again, outstanding work.
All 12 of those strings sounded great!!! 😍Nice job, Mr. Scott!!
Good job 👍👍👍, hot hide glue can be dissolved very well with spirit.
Im considering sending you my FG-140 for a neck reset and a refret. Maybe a bone nut and saddle. Great job buddy
Well done! Sounds great. I was thinking it might be a lot of work for a mediocre result. But, that old Yamaha sings.
Looks & Sounds Great!
