Not sure which I like better--the ES-295, the Push Tone LP, or that Viper GTS!
BTW, I have one of those "Red Label" Yamaha FG-300's, too! Here's mine:

Your Yamaha 300 looks better than mine...is that the original pickguard?

Yep--the guitar is all original. Apparently, Yamaha was going for the Gibson Hummingbird look with that pickguard. I guess a lot of the FG-300's had problems with the pickguards peeling up/coming loose, but mine is still firmly glued on. You may also notice that mine has individually adjustable bridge saddles, something rarely seen on an acoustic. I bought it from the original owner in 1978, and don't intend to ever sell it.

Yeah i had heard about the pickguard problem. You have a rare one i think. I really like mine too and whenever i just want to play around it is one i usually grab off the wall. My wife just started using it and she really likes the fast neck and mellow tones. My pickguard had to be replaced i guess sometime in the past. I also have a fg-110 and it sounds ok but nothing like the 300. I will never sell mine either i think. Those old Yamaha's were really good players. I have been looking for a Vintage fg-360 for a while but can't seem to find one. Anyway,keep pickin!
