Dip Your Toes Into Guitar

Every journey begins with a first step, and with Yamaha's Gigmaker Deluxe kit, that first step will get you everything you need in a single package. If you're a beginner, finding the guitar with the right body shape from the right manufacturer, with the right combination of wood, scale length, size, and the many other features that make an instrument a comfy fit, can be a daunting task. With this starter kit, you can get your fingers warmed up in no time.

Dreadnought-Shaped Body, Solid Spruce and Nato Tonewoods

The dreadnought body shape is probably the most recognizable contour in guitar history. It yields a large, complex acoustic guitar sound and works well in pretty much any genre. Its rounded edges also provide read more a comfortable feel against your body as you play. The solid spruce top resonates a pleasant crispiness that'll keep your performance well articulated, and the nato back and sides yield a sound similar to mahogany but with a slightly tamer push on the lows and mids.

Comfy Nato Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard

Your Yamaha Dreadnought FD01S features a comfortable nato neck and smooth rosewood fingerboard. All 20 frets harness a reasonably close action for you to take advantage of, as your fingers get used to learning different chord positions and scale structures.

I'd buy it again. Good practice guitar. Small neck for those of us with short fingers. Easy to play. Sounds good for $150.00. I'd recommend spending a minimum of $300 on yamaha guitar for the richer tone
Sound
I give it a 7 because it sounds good for the price. The more expensive yamahas sound better. Action is low and easy.
Features
Tuner is okay.If you have ever picked up a guitar the DVD stinks. No book. Gig bag is not so great either no pockets for picks or spare strings. All in all I would have been better off buying the guitar without the rest of the package. They should package it with a guitar stand and tuner.
Quality
Made well as are all yamaha instruments. The strings are no good light tension. I threw on some Martin medium tension strings and the sound improved dramatically.
Value
I give it a 9 instead of a 10 because most of the extras stink.

The Wow Factor
