Refining Tradition to Perfection
Yamaha’s Hollow Series has continually evolved since its debut in 1966, thanks to decades of feedback from musicians and advances in both acoustic craftsmanship and electronic innovation. This blend of tradition and technology is something only Yamaha can offer, and the result is a guitar line-up designed to meet the needs of today’s diverse players.
Key Features
Semi-Hollow Body Construction
While it may look like a full hollow-body guitar, the SA2200 is actually a semi-hollow design. A solid centre block beneath the bridge helps eliminate feedback, delivering warm, resonant tones with greater control and clarity.
Custom Pickups with Coil Taps
The SA2200 features custom-wound Alnico V humbuckers with dual push/push coil taps. Effortlessly switch between humbucker and single-coil sounds for a huge range of tonal options — perfect for everything from jazz to rock.
Stop Tailpiece Bridge
Fitted with a stop tailpiece bridge, the SA2200 offers enhanced sustain, excellent tuning stability and easy adjustability.
Initial Response Acceleration (I.R.A.)
Yamaha’s exclusive I.R.A. treatment applies precise vibrations to the guitar during construction, reducing internal stresses between components. The result is a more resonant, responsive instrument that feels played-in from day one.
Whether you’re on stage, in the studio or just playing for yourself, the SA2200 brings together tradition, tone and top-tier build quality in one inspiring instrument.
