Yamaha FG-421......anyone?
I'm looking for an inexpensive Yamaha, prefer a solid top. Only problem, there's so many to pick from! Just found this FG421 and unlike the others I have found, I cannot track down much info on this model. According to one source it was made in the mid 90's but nothing about the top being laminated or solid. Any help would be much appreciated! I found an FG461sa that is most certainly a solid top but it is twice as much money. I'm prepared to spend it if I have to but obviously not trying to if it's not needed.

I guess that was the main confusion. It doesn't say solid or laminated spruce for the top. Should I take it to mean that from now on?
Thanks so much for taking the time! Lacho |

Ok I found my answer and wanted to share for the next guy. First, the FG421 is not a solid top guitar. I found this chart helpful, I am sure it has been pointed out several times but I haven't seen it and didn't know to look for it. There is a chart on Pg 4. Insanely helpful to me right now. I was looking for info on another one I had found yesterday. I spent about 15 minutes looking for my answers and in that time the guitar was sold. I'll say it again, this chart is insanely helpful to me right now. I made it my desktop.
