Sound: I give it a 7 because it sounds good for the price. The more expensive yamahas sound better. Action is low and easy. Feature: 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. Manufacturer Support: No opinion The Wow Factor: It's shiny and pretty. What else to expect from a $150.00 guitar Overall: 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: Tone was good to start. Has steadily declined. Feature: Standard for the price level. Ease of Use: Average. Quality: This is the first negative review I have had to write for any guitar I have owned. I was thrilled with this guitar when I got it. Nice looking and nice tone. Two years later and despite me taking great care of it the frets buzz, the fretboard is severely discolored, and the last time I changed the string, the tuner for the D string fell completely off and is now held in place only by the string tension. Stay away from this poorly made guitar.

Overall: Guitar itself was a good deal. Sounds good. The tuner that came with it was not good at all. I had to tune my guitar listening to the dvd that came with it, the tuner was way off and still is. Other than that, its a good beginner package.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
