Highly collectible early 1990s guitar designed by English luthier Martyn Booth. This still has original hard case, was also fret dressed and set up by Martyn a while back 




The Yamaha Image Deluxe aka Yamaha MSG Deluxe is a double cut guitar designed by Martyn Booth in the UK. Martyn Booth now makes his own custom guitars. The Yamaha Image was based on the Gibson 335-S, a solid body version of the ES-335. In the UK the "Image" name was already taken so the guitar was called the Yamaha MSG (Martyn's Solid Guitar). It featured a mahogany body with a carved maple top and a set-in D-shaped mahogany neck. Just like a PRS the scale is 25". The Yamaha Image Deluxe has a bound ebony fretboard and two Humbuckers 

  • Yamaha RM-Pro tremolo
  • Locking nut

    Had one......they are superb quality guitars 
    the push-click coil splits were only on the Spinex pickup models..........these are nicer sounding than those
    Fantastic guitars all round

    The MSG has always struck me as one of the better guitar designs. The only reason I don’t own one is my inability to cope with floating bridges.

    I have enjoyed quite a few of these over years. Great workhorse guitars. I'd be happy to have this but it's priced too high. I've never had one for more than £750. The Rocking Gem Trem can be fettled nicely if they're in good working order. Spare parts for those are thin on the ground.

    ^ Do you really think that comment is appropriate ?
    Nobody asked you to self-appoint as a valuer of goods that belong to somebody else .
    If you have Asperger syndrome then I quite understand the lack of tact and discretion if not then you are rude and discourteous on somebody else's 'for sale ' thread .
     You may not have had one for more than £750 ;bully for you ........I paid £920 for one some time ago and still sold it for a profit.

    My apologies if I appeared rude. Certainly not intentional. I've actually bought the guitar for a mutually agreed price. Again, no offence intended.
