5 Stars for what it is!
This is not typically your main acoustic. This is a little 3/4 size to toss in the car (gently) or take to something casual. Something to figure songs out with.. Or your main parlour guitar. For what it is it is beautiful in its own way. A little joy to play! I have very large hands and I don't have trouble with the size. The strings are factory but sound good. I use 13-56 strings on my main guitar so this is a nice break. It's smaller size is comfortable but the sound is obviously smaller than a full size but much better than most acoustic travel guitars. It sounds nice. As a begginer guitar, it is perfect. The electronics are great. However, the gig bag is just to carry it, and will not protect it.. At all! The tuners are plastic but stay in tune. For the price it is fun and a good deal. Can you hook this up to play live? Sure, it will not be a deep rich sound but even unplugged it sounds nice. To sing over it? I would go for something full size with better projection.. Much quieter than a full size. Or simply plug it in! Intonation is good and string height is fine for a beginner. You aren't going to be bending/shredding with this! This is a very nice traveler. I suggest you try one at a music store and you will see what I mean about the sound. 3/4 size sound, but a good sounding travel guitar. I own a backpack guitar by Martin and this is so much better. For what it is, and used for, I love it.

Nice quality
This guitar was recommended to us by my daughter’s guitar instructor. She is 8 years old and just started lessons. This guitar fits her very well and is perfect for a small child learning to play. Seems to be very nice quality. Has a built in tuner and amp plug. It also comes with a soft case!

Perfect Parlour style Guitar
I’m at a point in my playing where I wanted to upgrade to something a bit nicer as my “travel” guitar. It was important to be a smaller size, have a cutaway, and have the ability to plug in. After looking at various options I decided to give Yamaha a try. I’ve always heard good things and the few I’ve played seemed to be decent quality.Right out of the box, it needed a quick tune up. Popped in 2 double A batteries and turned on the built in tuner. Love the display, will come in handy for dropped and alternate tunings. Once that was done, I started plucking away. Action was good to go from the box and the strings were pretty decent though I suggest giving them a wipe down before using. Neck has a smooth feel and no breaks or dings detected. Plugged into an amp just to test the pickup. No issues there but be careful how high the volume knob on the guitar is set.I did take a star off because there are a few things I feel could have been better. First thing I noticed is the wiring kind of flops around inside the guitar. I noticed this when inspecting the body and rotating the guitar. Not a huge deal as I don’t plan on shaking my guitar to death but it could have been secured better. I’ll probably address when I change strings. Second, the tuning machines feel and look a bit cheap and aren’t aligned perfectly. Again, not a major issue. Third thing is the nut looks like it could have been cut better on the low E. Action is ok but you can tell it’s the highest string. It is a 200 dollar guitar so things like this are to be expected.It does come with a gig bag which isn’t very padded.Overall happy with the purchase. Will update if anything pops up.

Granddaughter loves it
Got this for my granddaughter's birthday. She's now in guitar lessons and loves it. For its size it has a pretty good tone. Seems to hold tuning well. Makes an excellent present.

Quality notas stated
Quality is below par for a $200 guitar. I returned it immediately and was charged a restocking fee even though I literally took it out of the box and examined it and put it right back and return immediately in the original package. This vendor was unjust on my return, even though it states returns are accepted before 30 days. I find sellers like this unjustly profit from consumers using scrupulous fees. Not Happy with their service.

Perfect for travel, and for having something to pick up and play.
I've bought four of these guitars, 2 as gifts. They sit where you are and invite you to pick them up and play what's in your head. Easy to play in the passenger seat of your car and put in the overhead bin of the airliner. Sound pretty good for a punk, and the onboard tuner spoils you.
