Great guitar
 
Review Date: April 18, 2008
Reviewer: J. Smith,
I purchased this guitar for my young sons taking lessons but this guitar is just as playable for an adult as for a child. Their guitar teacher was very impressed by the sound and construction of the guitar and the kit bag was actually a pretty good little bag.
Great beginner's Guitar

Great beginner's guitar, good tonality, easy to tune, holds tune well. Great size for my 9 year old daughter.
Good quality starter guitar for a child!

I purchased this guitar for my 8 year old son as a starter guitar.

The craftsmanship of the guitar was quite good compared to 2 Rogue accoustic guitars which I also purchased for my sons (see my review of the Rogue Starter accoustic guitar, and the Rogue RA-100D Dreadnought guitar Rogue RA-100D Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar, Black for a description of sub-standard craftsmanship on those products).

The sound was reasonably bright with good intonation. Better than many of the starter guitars in the $100-$120 range.

I would recommend this guitar at a price of $120 or less.
Wonderful Children's Guitar

I'm very satisfied with this guitar, which I bought for my 8-year old son. The tone is good and the guitar stays in tune. It feels well-made in the hands. We had a Mark II M2G-30SB 1/2-size guitar which we'd used for a year before this, and it didn't stay in tune (and it always had one sour string that never would get in tune, even with the help of an electronic tuner. Changing the strings didn't help). So I'm very pleased with the Yamaha. It's great quality at an affordable price. We purchased the guitar through the Guitar Center website, which had free shipping. It comes with a soft case. The only criticism I have, and it's a minor one, is that I wish the case had at least one pocket on it for picks and such. But it's a well-made case otherwise. Thank you, Yamaha, for making a good product!
Great starter guitar

Reviewer: D. Zydel,
I bought this for my 13 y/o son because the full size guitar makes it hard for him to hold properly. He is much more comfortable with this, he's progressing faster with his lessons, and it sounds great and is holding it's tuning well.
