Sounds good, looks good...

Anonymous 21.12.2015

It's been a long time since I owned a jumbo EKO 12 string guitar. That was a monster, but it had a big sound. After thinking about it for a long time, with my wife repeating, "What do you need another guitar for?" I took the plunge and opted for the Yamaha.

I must confess that it was the compact size that fell for, and I did not expect it to sound as full as my EKO. It doesn't, of course, but it is a joy, and much easier, to play - with quite a low action. The built in tuner is a very useful bonus. The sound (using a D tuning) is better than I anticipated and it is a beautifully finished off instrument.

My only negative comment relates to the strap buttons. I usually use the locking clip nuts to hold the strap on safely. I had no realised that the jack socket went through the button. With a thickish leather strap, I had to use a set of rubber washers over the top of the strap to hold it on the buttons securely.

In summary, an excellent guitar that sounds bigger than it looks. Although not a regular performer any more, I wish I had bought it earlier.

I play for personal enjoyment in my home, occasionally with family members. Country, folk and gospel are my usual genres. The 12 string Yamaha is a beautiful sounding guitar, rich and warm tone with very good electrics/tuner installed. Not as large, or bulky! as a dreadnaught it is very comfortable to hold. High quality finish, easy play fretboard. Liked everything about it. Would highly recommend. Safe and secure delivery from Thomann all the way to north of England.

Was will man mehr ...

...als eine zunächst sehr gut und solide gebaute Gitarre.Aller bestes finish ohne Fehler und Tadel.Saiten und Steg sorgfältig eingestellt.Nur leider ueberhaupt nicht gestimmt.Da könnte man ja vor dem Verkauf mal ein Ohr drauf verwenden ...Der Klang geht ohne AMP mehr in die untere Klasse,was bei dem Korpus aber auch nicht wundert.Ohne Body ist da nicht viel drin.Aber Schliessen Sie das Instrument mal an , dann kommt Freude auf.Einfach mal an allen möglichen Einstellungen basteln,und Sie werden staunen,was in der Gitarre drin steckt. Und dabei reicht schon ein einfacher Combo-Verstaerker. Besonders der angenehm schlanke Hals muss noch erwähnt werden . Da ist eine 12-saitige Gitarre auch für Musiker mit eher kleinen Händen gut spielbar .Insgesamt ist die kompakte Form total angenehm , da hat man keinen Koffer vor dem Bauch ! Also für Studio und Bühne unbedingt in Betracht ziehen.

Super!

Helemaal tevreden met deze Yamaha. Geselecteerd uit vele types en merken door vergelijking van geluidssamples op de Thomann site.
Helemaal tevreden van klank (lekker vol en warm in de diepte en lekker scherp tintje in de hoge tonen).
Goeie afwerking. Speelt heel soepel. Erg vlot stembaar.
Na zowat één jaar spelen op dit instrument nog steeds helemaal enthousiast.
