| WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT | |
| We loved the tone that this instrument offered. It performs particularly well at the high end, so if you like crisp trebles , then we think you'll like it. The price is hard to argue with too. A solid investment for an adult beginner, we think. | Yamaha make outstanding affordable products that are aimed at beginners and hobbyists and this is one of them. The full sound it offers is difficult to beat. We were also impressed by the quality of the extras that come as part of the bundle. The hard case is a superb product. Overall, there's little to fault this superb product from Yamaha. |
