Yamaha LJ16 Sunburst Review - The Best Mid Range Guitar?

Yamaha's LJ16 Sunburst is the perfect blend between the old with the new. With pre-aged tonewoods treated with Yamaha's new ARE treatment, the LG16 will make any Martin collector proud, yet can still withstand the rigours of modern acoustic fingerstyle guitar techniques. It wasn't long ago that Yamaha was starting to fall well down the pecking order when it comes to building quality guitars. However, with their new range of ARE treated guitars and new bracing design, Yamaha has breathed new life into their range of guitars that sound like a custom built $3000 guitar, yet is incredibly affordable. Specs: Medium jumbo size body Solid Engelmann Spruce top treated with A.R.E Solid Rosewood back and sides Strong 5-ply Mahogany and Rosewood neck SRT Zero Impact pickup Ebony fretboard Ebony bridge Diecast gold lacquered geared machine heads Hard carry bag included Available in Natural and Brown Sunburst You can purchase this guitar at Australia's largest online music shop, Carlingford Music Centre.
