An absolute joy!
What a great guitar! Really beautiful finish all glossy but the neck is as smooth as silk I don't know what they use but it's so nice to play. The guitar sounds very well rounded with a little extra in the low end. So the Reverb and Chorus sounds with a touch of a button are ultra cool, kinda like surround sound. You get used to it real quick very inspirational. Yamaha really went above and beyond on this one. With or without the electronics this is a great sounding instrument but with a trick like that I'm using it. Plugged in sounds amazing! There's no bass or treble knobs? So the EQ they give you is what you get really nice bass response though and the highs are very clear, I was impressed. Just an absolute joy to play.
Terrific Guitar
I saw this guitar on You Tube, and although I was a little hesitant about buying a guitar online, I decided to give a try. Before it was shipped, I was sent several Hi Res photos of it which was great. It arrived double boxed, and in perfect condition. The set up was fine for me right out of the box.This guitar has such a nice rich even tone to it even without the the on board electronics. However, switch on the chorus and or reverb and the sound becomes glorius. The Elixir strings are smooth and friendly to the touch. The spruce top has fine tight grain and looks great. Couldn't find any flaws in the finish. I haven't tried it through an amp yet, so I can't rate that. Always like a cutaway feature too. I highly recommend it.
Great value
Guitar came with a slightly high action but the intonation was spot on and the guitar plays beautifully. Well worth the money.
My Second Yamaha
The first one I bought back in 1982. An FG800J. It was my go to guitar for years until it was stolen a few years ago. Sadly guitar playing went by the wayside for a while. I purchased the Yamaha FGC-TA back in November. I have re strung it one time. It played great right from the box. The finish is very nice, and the balance and weight are good. Sweetwater was right on point with the sale and delivery. It arrived well packed in a case. I do not play professionally. I am an advanced amateur. I play this guitar everyday.
