PRESS RELEASE

Electric Guitar Starter Kit from Yamaha

July 23, 1999

With its new Electric Guitar Starter Kit, Yamaha Corporation of America, Pro Audio & Combo Division, Guitars, has lowered the price barrier and raised the performance bar once again. The aggressively priced basic kit gives parents the opportunity to choose Yamaha quality without breaking the bank.

The kit includes a high-quality, entry-level EG112U guitar, as well as gigbag, pitchpipe, strap, extra set of strings, string winder and headphone practice amp. Unlike other packages that force parents to buy a guitar and amp together at a much higher price, the Electric Guitar Starter Kit gives dealers the option of packaging the guitar with any amp they choose.

"Dealers need options and that's what the new Electric Guitar Starter Kit is all about," explains David Bergstrom, Guitar marketing manager. "You get the best quality guitar and basic essentials. We expect this to be a real winner during the Christmas selling season."

The EG112U guitar is a full-featured Strat-style electric. It features three pickups (two single coils and a humbucker in the bridge position), a five-way switch, volume and tone controls, a tremolo bridge and covered tuners.
