Sometime in the early seventies, Yamaha introduced a deviation on the standard SA-20, SA-50 and SA-70 models and named it the Pearl Tone Series. The Pearl Tone Series model numbers have a B post-fix like: SA-20B, SA-50B and SA-70B. This series comprised five new colours called ‘Marine’, ‘Sunflower’, ‘Shadow’, ‘Glacier’ and ‘Camellia’. The latter is a bright red colour. The second Japanese brochure below shows the SA-70B (bass) and the SA-20B (12-string) descriptions.
Here a few brochures referencing the Pearl Tone Series followed by some photos.
Here some photos of the Pearl Tone Series.
