  • On first strum I immediately heard what torrefaction aging does to the wood and I liked it.
Color: Vintage Tint Size: Dreadnought Style: L-Series Pattern: Guitar
I have several acoustics, a 20yr old Takamine cedar top which has aged up, a brand new Ibanez acoustic artwood, and now this Yamaha. The way that wood ages does change the sound and it's hard to describe and not that easy to notice without an a and b comparison, but the first notes I played on the Yamaha, I was struck by how clear they rang out. The torrefaction aging they are doing to the wood isn't snake oil, and it has an easy to hear change on the tone. The upper mid range of the guitar for instance is louder, and there seem to be more overtones. If you could imagine starting with a soft, wet wood, how it would tend to muffle the treble freqencies because it's not very stiff, and then imagine you somehow made that wood as stiff as carbon fiber, and then played it, how much brighter it would sound, it's something like that. The notes sound very clear, and project very well. It actually 'sounds good'. Like play an A chord and someone can tell it's an expensive guitar just from that. It just has that sound. The electronics are also great. I wish it had a built in tuner like my Ibanez but the magic wizardry that is the built in chorus and reverb is pretty incredible. It takes 2 AA batteries from down by the TRS jack, and I haven't had to change them yet after about 20 hours of playing. The chorus especially gives you a 12string sound on a 6 string. The plugged in sound is better than my Ibanez, but still sounds like a piezo. It's okay for using an amp but if you're recording guitar, you're still better off using a microphone pointed at the 12th fret. Now the action......is great. It's the easiest acoustic action I've ever used. It's not as easy to play as an electric, but you won't struggle with it even if you don't play acoustic. It's nothing like my Takamine which is a finger destroyer. The neck also has that knurling down both sides to kind of protect your hand from fret sprouting and such so that even wrapping your thumb around the neck you have nothing grinding on your hand on either side moving up and down the neck. Very smooth, and a matt neck finish so it's not grabby. The tuners are very fast, which is usually a sign of quality. It takes very little movement to tune up or down and once the strings stretch out, it stays in tune. It also does not affect tune very much if you're pulling on the neck or pushing on it which is a good sign. I did not have to adjust the action to get a buzz free experience. The action as a whole is a little higher than I'd like, but you won't get any string buzz with it set like that. My fit and finish is flawless. No scuffs, dings, flaws, from the factory. The guitar uses thick top wood which is much thicker than my Ibanez or Takamine. The guitar also weighs more than my other 2 acoustics and it feels solid. I expect this guitar to last a lifetime. ... show more

Had it for 8 months now. It comes with a urea saddle & nut, which are okay but I think for this price they both should've been bone. I had it tricked up: Colosi bone bridge pins; bone saddle; and a Zero Glide nut which I had custom made for this guitar for a drop-in fit, as well as a stainless steel zero fret. But truthfully, I wouldn't say any of that improved the sound or intonation to any major degree. But there is more sustain for sure, and the Zero Glide certainly changes the tone of open strings since they're now going over a fret at the nut. That helped greatly with the thin, pingy sound I was getting on the high E&B with certain string sets; that's no longer a problem. But overall, I'll say this to any future buyers: you don't need to do all the customizing I did, which cost me around $200 total. Play it just like it is and you'll be happy (unless you're extremely picky & precise about tone & tuning like I am.) This guitar is above average, in fact unique due to the onboard effects, but I'm not thrilled with it completely by any means. It tunes rather poorly. The intonation is still off even after the new nut & saddle. The action has to be set fairly high to avoid buzz. It doesn't have very good projection; I use Newtone & TI Plectrum extra-heavy gauge strings and play with my thumb & fingers, rather aggressively sometimes, and it's sure not very loud unplugged - but not so soft that it's a problem. Using a pick to strum almost doubles the volume, but makes the tone too trebly for my taste. I like a more warm, woody sound like Kevin Eubanks gets, and can only get close to that sound with my thumb & fingers. I play it every day, sometimes with reverb and sometimes not. I seldom use the chorus which does sound authentic but just isn't up my alley style-wise. The LL-TA sounds good enough that I'm motivated to go pick it up when the impulse hits. I just wish it tuned better and didn't have buzz & other noise problems unless the action is pretty darn high. It doesn't play very well higher up on the neck. The intonation goes off a little and certain strings get those buzzy sounds when picked hard. I keep raising the action via the truss rod to help with that, and it does help, but high action sucks for jazzy playing. A really precise setup by a true pro might help with these problems to some extent. It could be that the frets are slightly uneven straight from the factory, I'm not sure, but something is just not quite right, despite the Zero Glide making the strings even all the way down the neck and the saddle being sanded down to the appropriate height as far as I can tell. All of that should've helped with intonation & action, but it did not. ... show more

  • Interesting but only for few days
Color: Brown Sunburst Size: Dreadnought Style: F-Series Pattern: Guitar
For fun this guitar is ok but if you want to sing with this guitar I think it would be a bad idea. I could get all solid guitar within $1000, that will much better guitar than this. This guitar is almost $800 with 3 year protection plan. I am a fan of Yamaha they are durable and sounds great as well. ... show more
