I real dont know when it was made ......I would guess in the eighties
it is all solid woods with a set neck.It has a humbucker in the bridge position and 2 single coils;the machine heads (deeppurple)
are grover mini chrome tuners;its has a kahler bridge unit and shark fin fret board inlays.........Mines candy apple red........I believe the nobs are:1 volume and two tone(i think) they are both crome. It also has silver/grey pinstriping..............Its a variation on the flying vee but slicker. Oh yeah it also has that thing after the nut that you use a hex key on to lock the strings so it is less prone to go outa tune.
The neck seem to me to have more room than others i have played.......Its like wider but thinner kindafeels grest frets are i dunno i like e I dont know much about the pickups but i am here to tell you yakima makes quality guitars .....if any1 has ANY info on them please email me crawdave2001@yahoo.com
