[CAUT] 1966 Yamaha G-2 plain-wire scale

No numbers on the bridge or plate.

I have 1975 G-2 on file, but it is 26-note, and a 1965 model here at B.U.,
but it has been re-strung, and not reliably so.

The Canadian Yamaha distributor doesn't have the scales either.

Does anyone have "A Guide to Re-Stringing" by John Travis? Being a popular
instrument, I wonder if the scale wouldn't be listed there.

Otherwise, we still have the wire.... and a micrometer.  :>)

thanks!

So the numbers are not on the bridge?
