As an instrument that dates back hundreds of years, the guitar has captured the interest of many as a way of appreciating music, relaxing, and even socializing. Those who enjoy this instrument know that it can capture just about any music genre and create an incredible playing experience. For those interested in finding a new guitar, either to add to their collection or because they are just getting started playing, we have narrowed down the wealth of options to some of our favorites. See if one of these guitars might fit your needs.
Nice upgrades
This guitar has been designed to balance comfortably playing with rewarding sound. The X-braced and A-grade Spruce wood help to create a resilient instrument that also projects a tone that we enjoy both when playing personally or performing songs. With the option to use the instrument acoustically, or plug it in and experience the electric options, this guitar works very well for anyone who enjoys playing the full range of guitar options and potential. The body also has a cut-away at the neck, which makes it easier for players to reach the high frets. The builders have also put a number of upgrades into the guitar including phosphor bronze strings, chrome tuning pegs, and an ultra-glossy and tough finish.
Plenty of extras
The package includes a number of helpful features including the strap, capo, picks, extra strings, tuner, carrying bag, and polishing cloth that a beginner might need. We also really appreciated the beginner-friendly features on the guitar itself, such as the position marks at the side of the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 12, 15th, and 17th frets. We found that this made it easy for new players to dive right into the music and begin playing their guitar. At the same time, the comfortable design and the vibrant sound also make it a great guitar for those who have been playing for years.
Rosewood construction
Those interested in the 800 series guitar from Yamaha can get either the dreadnought or concert-sized acoustic guitars. We found that both versions produced the rich, fulfilling sound that Yamaha has focused on developing. If you want to further customize your instrument, this guitar also comes with an adjustable truss rod. We also appreciated the use of rosewood on both the fingerboard and the bridge, all working together to create a delightful sound. This guitar focuses on strength and accessibility for all guitar players, even those new to the instrument, and it shows.
Dreadnought body style
We love how this guitar has been built for sound and comfort. You will find that the features including the spruce top, satin finish, Venetian-style cutaway, and Agathis back and sides all help to produce the rich sounds that make acoustic guitars so fun to play. Meanwhile, this guitar also has a unique positioning system for its strap to help keep the instrument balanced and comfortable while you play. We also found that the higher frets were easy to reach on this dreadnought body style and cutaway design, helping us capture our favorite music.
Everything you need
For those we know who are just getting started on the guitar, this package had immediate appeal. The guitar itself has a dreadnought body style and X-bracing along with a c-shape mahogany neck. These features help to create a rich sound that brings to life your favorite acoustic guitar sound. This package also includes a number of helpful parts including a case, strap, picks, guitar book and DVD, tuner, play trial, and strings. We found that the nicely balanced instrument made it easy to appreciate the beauty of the acoustic guitar and made it simple for the newest players to get started.
