Hi, I am about to build a SGV. I have managed to find a SGV-tremolo.
So if you have other SGV parts, especially the roller-bridge, knobs, pickups, I am very interested !
I think it will to be a nice project.

Normally I'm all about the DYI thing, I've built a couple of strats myself, but you might just be better off buying the SGV in this case... you can get many of the parts directly from Yamaha at elevated prices, but you'll be spending a lot more than what people are typically paying for these guitars. — |

SGVs come up on Ebay quite frequently and usually have spectacular prices. My prediction is that you would spend more building one than actually just purchasing one outright. —THE KBK ... This is the last known signal. We offer Sanctuary. www.thekbk.com |

I have all the parts you need! Attached to a complete SGV-800. I'll ship to you for $450 + shipping. |

The idea of the P90s is not a bad one. Since these are so well known to have a very mosrite style tone, perhaps actually contacting Bob Shade at Hallmark or Ed Roman to get some wound to mosrite specs would be an interesting experiment. —THE KBK ...

Here, you could get the SVG-800 tuners Neck plate should be standard. You just need a a bridge. Last edited: Apr 18, 2011 15:09:48 |

How do you go about buying parts from Yamaha? I would love to get some SGV300 pickups. morphball wrote:

It appears that since the SGV line was discontinued, Yamaha24x7 has stopped selling parts for this product line, unfortunately. Back in 2009, I was able to order a vibrato arm for my SGV 800 (ARM ASSEMBLY FCRM33G (CR) SGV300 item# QC541100), but a search doesn't even pull up that part number anymore. My advice is still to just wait for a complete SGV on the used market, and take from it what you want. — |

I wouldn't mind seeing an SG-3C reissue, now those are really hard to find. — |
