  • For $169 this is one of the best guitar packages out there
My first guitar class back in high school we used these instruments and they were always reliable and nice sounding so when I was looking for a cheap classical guitar recently I decided to give it a shot and wow. The hype is entirely justified. My guitar came with almost no defects though it did have a couple of tiny nicks in the finish. It looks very good for a laminate wood construction. The tone of this guitar is absolutely amazing, I haven't ran into any issues with the included strings so far however it's good practice to change them out regularly anyways so it won't be a big deal if they start to wear out. I've bought a few guitar "starter packs" and this one has the highest quality included gig bags I've seen yet. Typically included gig bags feel cheap and the zippers break but this is a seriously quality one which is easy to see and feel when you get it in person. Likewise the tuner is much higher quality than some other cheap tuners I've used. It comes with a battery which is easy and fast to put in and the tuner is simple to use. It is full chromatic so you aren't limited to standard tuning either. If you subtract the price of the guitar, the gig bag + the tuner and CD for only $30 extra! That's a great value considering some decent gig bags cost over that by themselves. I haven't opened the CD as it is clearly geared towards beginners but knowing the quality of the rest of this bundle I'm willing to bet it would be a valuable inclusion for anyone looking for an intro to the guitar. The playability of this guitar is fantastic however because it is a classical guitar there is no truss rod to adjust the action of the strings. By default the action is set decently high as is common on classical guitars to avoid fret buzz and to get a clear sound. Whether you are looking into guitar for the first time or just want a cheap nylon string guitar this is a fantastic value and I'd highly recommend it. Good on Yamaha! ... show more

Great guitar, a bit pricey but worth every penny.

  • A quality guitar
I have checked out several higher-end guitars such as the Cordoba C5 and C7 and also a Manuel Rodriguez, all of which cost between $500 and $1000, and I do not notice a huge difference in terms of their touch or the quality of the sound. In fact, there are several positive features I like about the starting level Yamaha student guitar. I even bought a Cordoba C5 and played them against each other. In a blind test, I could tell which one is the Yamaha based on a few things. The third string (G) has a less blunt and more sustained soft sound quality. I notice that Yamaha and some Manuel Rodriguez have made a cut-out at the bottom bridge nut around the area that contacts the 3rd (G) string. This design feature seemed to correlate with the softer and sustained sound I perceived when I checked out many guitars at the Guitar Center. There is also a more sustained sound at the 6th string with particularly the G note. The Yamaha is very playable, not presenting itself like a compromised guitar albeit being labelled as a student guitar for the beginners. Recently, I had the chance to play it at home against the Cordoba C5 (about $500) and the Manuel Rodriguez CAB11 (about $300) for a few days. To my pleasant surprise, I have come to like the Yamaha even more. You do have to realize that all these guitars aforementioned are made in China. You probably have to go up much higher up in price levels to find one that are hand crafted in a Japanese factory by Yamaha or in Spain by M.Rodriguez or Cordoba. With the Yamaha, I only need to spend about $130 and I have had a whole lot of fun between me and my wife. The cheap price at first did come with a sense of instrument inferiority, until I spent some good amount of time comparing it against different guitars. To me, this just cannot be a bad choice and should afford me some great experience for a while before I indulge in a much more "professional" guitar. If you are thinking of trying out playing guitar for the first time, or like me, going back in time to search for my teen years of fun, you might want to wonder aloud like I do "What else could $130 buy these days?". ... show more

  • Yamaha C40 - Nice for the price
A good, basic classical guitar, with all that entails. Strings are nylon, so if you're looking for twang, look elsewhere. Strings are far apart and the neck is wide, so if you're looking for lightning or you have small hands, look elsewhwere. Most disappointingly (for me personally) there's no way to attach a strap, so if you're looking for something you can play while standing up, look elsewhere. Or buy one of those uncomfortable-looking and potentially guitar-damaging classical straps. Had I known that this guitar doesn't have at least the strap button at the tail, I probably would've bought something else. All that said, it's still a very nice guitar. The strings that came on it are ok, but I bought some D'Addarios to replace the OEMs. I'll play them a little more then swap 'em. Good sound, good action. One minor cut--I assume from a sharp fret bar. As soon as I figure out which is the guilty culprit, I'll fix that. The "gig bag" is cheap but functional. The digital tuner is a fun toy. I'm used to a tuning fork, so this will be interesting. Haven't watched the DVD. All in all, a good purchase that delivered with no damage and in a good amount of time (which IS saying something, as I'm currently deployed overseas). Now, about the guitar stand I ordered a week earlier than this and which still hasn't arrived... UPDATE: I ended up making a neck strap out of paracord, and it's not as uncomfortable as I expected. The guitar is that light, yet still sounds great. I ended up selling it to my replacement when I redeployed--it's still going strong. I think I could add half a star back. ... show more
