    • A great guitar for the money.
Style: Acoustic Electric Size: Dreadnought
I have played guitar for many years, and have played all levels of quality, so I can give you a pretty good assessment of this Yamaha. A lot of what I have to say will echo what many of the other reviews have mentioned. 1. The guitar is shipped in a basic cardboard box without much protection. The first guitar I received the box was damaged on the side, and the guitar was cracked all the way down the front and I had to return it and get a replacement sent. Fortunately the second guitar showed up flawless. 2. The fretboard inlays are very small and you really can’t see them when you are playing so you have to use the side dots instead. Some people said they put stickers or something on those frets and I can see why. I just made the adjustment of using the side dots, but it was annoying at first. 3. Some people have complained about the action being too high, but that is not the case for me. I found this guitar to be very playable right out of the box, however I did tweak the truss rod just to make sure it was right. The way I determine that is by putting a capo on the first fret and seeing if the strings buzz. I see no need to mess with the saddle or the nut. The action is plenty low, and it’s not a strain to fret. 4. Some people have complained that the strings that come with the guitar are terrible, but that must be just a personal preference because I don’t feel the need to change them right away. They are medium gauge which is fine for a strummer, but if you plan on doing bends you will want to go to light gauge strings. 5. The sound of this guitar is wonderful. It has a rich, full tone. The built in tuner is fantastic, along with the volume and tone controls for when you plug in. The guitar stays in tune very well. 6. I think the only negative thing I could possibly say is that the neck is a bit wide for me, but that’s just my personal preference. I strongly recommend this guitar for anyone from beginner to experienced who wants a good quality guitar without spending up to a Martin or Taylor. ... show more

A great guitar for the money. Yamaha, as always, offers better sound than its competitors in the same price range.

The sound changes as you play it for weeks. I used the built in tuner and at first the 6th string reads d# but after a week or more it is now d !

    • Get Humidpak!
Style: Acoustic Electric Size: Dreadnought
This Guitar Yamaha FGX800C Solid Top Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar Is extremely suseptible to drying out. Then the problems start. Strings rattle no matter how well you finger the frets. The high end sounds tinny the low end is muddy. It must be kept in a case with a humid pak and hygrometer. It must be kept at a minimum of 55% humidity. 65% is better. And, use a good wood polish. I just took it out and it was 68% and it has never sounded better. Resonant low end, bright pristene high end! Not the best choice for a first time buyer, total beginner. The fret board is a bit wide to learn on. Great for the money if you take care of it. ... show more

    • Great Guitar, But…
Style: Acoustic Electric Size: Dreadnought
This is a very good guitar for the money, but part of the information in the description is dead wrong! It does NOT have a “Rosewood Fingerboard & Bridge” Both are walnut! Everything else is correct. Because of the interior space needed for the electronics, the guitar does not project well when playing acoustically. This is normal for an A/E and is fine for practice or writing, but not for performance, which is where the electronics come into play, pun intended. DO NOT buy this guitar if you’re looking for an acoustic guitar primarily. Other than this and the fact that there is no guitar strap button for the front, which has become standard on acoustic guitars for some ridiculous reason - even a $5,000 Martin doesn’t have one! I had one added by my luthier when he did the setup - but remember that this will also void the lifetime warranty. ... show more

    • Exceptional guitar at a great price!
Style: Acoustic Electric Size: Dreadnought
I purchased this guitar for my son for his sixteenth birthday. I purchased this guitar vs other guitars in this price range due to its solid wood face (most guitars in this price range have laminated wood faces). The guitar came in perfect condition and looks amazing. My guitar technician friend looked it over before I gave it to my son and gave it his stamp of approval. My son was exceptionally happy with this guitar! ... show more
