    Yamaha has surprised me!

    The most for your money is Yamaha. The FS800t was absolutely perfect and it’s sounds great. I was a sceptic about Yamaha. I love a good deal and I got a great one.

    Great guitar, great sound

    Been playing an electric for awhile and wanted to pickup a acoustic to mess around with but didn’t want to break the bank, this is one of the best sub $300 acoustic guitars you can buy very happy with it so far.

    The sound and resonation.

    I love the size and comfort of this guitar. I put my preferred strings on and I haven’t put it down. I think my other guitars are getting jealous.

    Great instrument for the price.

    Easy to play, very nice tone for a small guitar, stays in tune. Couldn’t ask for more for the price.

    The Best Entry Level Guitar AND A Perfect Addition To A Pro’s Quiver Of Strong Acoustic Guitars

    Out of the box, after resting for 24 hours in my home, I found a well built and without mistakes (excess glue, lifting bridge). It arrived without tuned tension on the strings. Action and intonation out of the box for the first tuning was great. Tone is about 3/4 of a Dreadnaut. Miced with a SM 57, then a Presonus Condenser showed excellent results through ProTools, Studio 3 and Reaper. This is a perfect guitar for recording. Easy to play, finish is beautifle with the tinted vintage style finish. I give this guitar five stars.

    Great guitar!

    Wow, what can I say about this amazing little guitar? Out of the box, it looked really nice, and while the action was still a little high from the factory, it played just fine. After having the action set up properly and premium strings installed, it’s like having a completely different guitar that sounds a lot more expensive than what I paid for it. I think this is absolutely perfect for beginners as well as a more experienced player that wants something inexpensive that they can knock around with. As usual, Yamaha has made another quality instrument that I’m happy to own.

    Very nice guitar for the price. Setup recommended

    This guitar really impressed me right out of the box. It looks fantastic and sounds great. It is perfectly playable but the action is a little high so a setup would be a good idea to make this outstanding.

    Love This Guitar

    Love this guitar so much. I have small hands and it’s a perfect fit for me. And it’s so affordable as well. I didn’t make a mistake with this one. 🙂 Nice sound and look.

    Great guitar, great experience with shipper

    Very pleased with the appearance of the guitar and the sound. Extremely happy with the shipper. Described the way it was packaged to my son’s guitar instructor, including the information that told us to wait 24 hours before we opened the box to let the instrument climatize. His instructor was not only impressed, but used to stop at that store to play the instrument when he was younger. He as well as I am highly recommending this shipper for musical instruments

    Excellent beginner guitar, quality retailer

    The guitar is excellent… bought for a new student. Setup out of the box was good, fit and finish very good for a guitar of this price. The Yamaha box was packed in a rectangular box, well marked, and instructions to receiver to all it to normalize temperature before opening – first excellent advice I’ve seen on the box especially for this price of guitar. I would buy both this guitar, and from this retailer, again, and will recommend them to others.

    Great Guitar for a Great Price

    I am a beginner and this has been the best Guitar to learn on.Sounds amazing.

  12. Scootampa

    Excellent Guitar that won’t break the bank!

    Came packaged beautifully. Sellers were wonderful and included personalized guarantee. Just learning with a few apps but am impressed by the sound already. It literally sings! Some notes/strings are a little “twangy” but I’m sure I’ll learn to adjust them. I bought the concert size and even though I have really big hands it fits me perfectly!

    Great Value

    Perfect beginner guitar.

  14. MichaelMichael

    Super nice, slightly smaller guitar.

    I love this guitar. The fit and finish on the T tinted version are excellent. The color is a bit darker and much richer than in the photos. It is a beautiful guitar. The neck feels great. It is smooth and a bit small with the strings a little closer together than on my Telecaster. It took me a few tries to get used to this. That said, the size of the guitar makes it way more comfortable for me than a full sized dreadnought body. It sounds great. Loud but not overpowering in my apartment. Many would consider this a good starter instrument but it’s a nice sounding keeper. There are simpley no drawbacks. I have much more resonant and expensive guitars but for something to carry around when on the road it sounds and plays just fine. at this price point you can’t beat this Yamaha guitar.

    Very nice, very playable guitar.

    It’s no Martin or Taylor but this is a very nice budget guitar. The fit and finish is outstanding on the one I received and I have no complaints other than that it was made in China. So time will tell if you catch my drift.

    Perfect for me.

    Nice sound, resonance, action and simple good looks. Came packed in a top notch manner from Chicago Music Exchange. Vintage tinted top looks like my FG110 from the Seventies, without the dings and stains. Yamaha FS800 Concert size guitar: perfect for me to play at home with guests. – Stagehand Jim

    Some adjustments required

    The guitar arrived in perfect condition but did require a truss rod adjustment which i guess is normal. I changed the strings to what are apparently easier to play as well.Overall i really like this guitar and would recommend it for this price category

  18. Old Crow

    Amazing sound and playability, for the money.

    Very low action, perfect for beginners.Sound quality equals guitars 2 and 3 times the price.I would recommend this guitar to intermediate level players.

    Good guitar with two small issues.

    The media could not be loaded.

     This is a good guitar for the price. It looks really good and sounds great for a guitar at this price point. However it lost two stars for me for two small issues, but the seller wasn’t very helpful.The first issue is a small blemish in the finish. I understand guitars naturally get scratched up over time and I’ll eventually make a few nicks in it myself, but this is a brand new guitar so for it to already have a cosmetic fault out of the box is bothersome.The second issue is I was noticing some buzzing while I was playing and I realized it was coming from the headstock. Upon closer inspection I realized the washer on the G-String tuning post was loose. It seems the nut wasn’t quite tightened down enough. As a result the washer was rattling against the headstock from the vibration of the strings causing the buzzing. Again, tightening the hardware on a guitar is apart of normal maintenance, but a brand new guitar shouldn’t have come with loose hardware out of the box.When I contacted the seller about these issues I wasn’t offered an apology or any sort of compensation. I was simply given the number of their repair centre, which isn’t even open right now due to the COVID lockdown in Ontario. Granted that’s not their fault but I would have appreciated an offer of a discount, or possibly even a replacement for the guitar. In my email I offered to go to their store which is offering curb side pick up.Again, these aren’t huge issues but they aren’t issues that should come with a new guitar and I wasn’t offered an real assistance. When I pressed about the issues in a reply to the email they sent me with their repair centre info, they did not reply.

    awesome!

    This guitar is awesome! sounds very good for its price. Perfect for small hands, only short coming is I cannot attach the guitar strap to it, because there is no hook for it. I think because it is folk guitar, guitar strap is out of question as it is usually played in lap.

    You get what you pay for – its a starter guitar.

    An ok guitar for a beginner. Sounds tinny and sometimes muddy, lacking body next to much more expensive guitars. The action is uneven across the frets. But that’s what you get for a few hundred bucks. Its a guitar that a beginner could use until they decide if they really want to pursue this guitar thing. And if they become serious, then they are going to need something better.
