  • A great guitar for the money.
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural
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

  • good sounding guitar for the money
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural
Played fine right out of the box. I changed the strings to a set of d'aadario xs. Good full tone from the low end to the high. Lots of sustain/ring. Good EQ controls on the pickup. Pickup is powered by two AA's instead of 9 volt but that's not a problem for me at all.

  • Nice sound, solidly built, holds tune
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural
Love it, love it, love it! Much better than the cheap practice guitar my daughter borrowed. Beautiful tone. Easy tuning. And it holds the tune wonderfully. Love the built in tuner.

  • Cant beat the value
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural
Great guitar for the money. Excellent quality, better made than my 25 yr old Yamaha. Great action, easy to fret. Great looks. Sound is above average with stock strings as delivered. Really like the built in tuner, very easy to use. Overall, seems like a guitar I would have paid much more for. Only negative is the way it was shipped. In a simple cardboard container, with no bubble wrap or foam to protect it. My was delivered in good shape - so no complaints, but I would worry if I ever ordered another about the chances of making it through a standard shipping carrier. ... show more

  • Always Quality
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural
I just messed up last week the very same guitar fret board, I filed it way low, then I lower the saddle and everything went wrong, I buy this guitar again and it plays out of the box as it supposed to play, and that means I like the playability of this guitar and just don’t mess it up like me and give a negative review, Good value, quality and more than enough for the SERIOUS entry level audiophile ... show more

  • Tuner materials & designed for the battery's magazine do not hold up to the expectation.
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural
I love my guitar; the sound is amazing, and it stays in tune. However: I am very concerned about how long it would take for the cheap plastic and the metal connectors used in the magazine that hold the batteries (tuner).
