    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI received the item today on 13 th February 2023. After unboxing and close inspection I found
    The build quality (body, neck, fretboard, keys) is good and mate finish is nice . The sound quality is not the best but acceptable. After playing for a few minutes i noticed a cracked sign on one edge . I think it’s because of the poor packaging of the product . The product came with the original paper box only . There was no extra protection for transportation. The seller should take care of it. I am going to ask for replacement. Finally I got refund on 13th March as the product picked up by courier. Thanks to the customer care executive.

    Crack on one joint edge .

    I have been playing since i was 12 years old, that’s 50 years ago. My first proper guitar was a B&M Almeria and cost about 50 back in 1973. I hate to think where that price would be with inflation taken into account. It was a decent guitar, but not a patch on the Yamaha C40II. I now wish I’d bought another classical guitar years ago. The Yamaha is brilliant value for money, I’ve just checked the intonation and it’s pretty much spot on. I like the fact that it has some neck relief but the action’s very high and needs some work on the bridge. The strings are very average and I will change them tomorrow. I can’t believe how cheap it is as the fit, finish and sound quality are outstanding. If you are an acoustic or electric guitarist and want to try a classical, you can’t go wrong. Also excellent for beginners.

    Stunning value

    This Yamaha classical guitar is excellent value for money. It has a lovely sound and once tuned a few times settles into an instrument that stays in tune longer than many nylon stringed guitars. So happy I read the reviews and chose this guitar.

    As a professional musician, I am quite rigorous with sound quality and playability when it comes to buying instruments. This one, despite seemingly being an entry level instrument, beats easily most of the high-end classical guitars I have seen so far. It plays absurdly well straight out of the box. The quality of the sound and intonation are superb. The melodies and harmonies are projected beautifully due to its unbeatable natural reverb. Getting songs played on this fabulous asset is such a tasteful experience. It is well designed and finished. Such a sight for sore eyes.
    The action of the strings is fair. They are not that close to the scale to the point of bringing up buzzing, nor so far as to cause discomfort during playing.

    The only thing it will eventually need is a change of strings since the set of strings it comes with wears away quite quickly and snaps at some point. However, don’t take it as a disadvantage. Factory strings normally are this useless and mostly used for regulating and fine-tuning the instrument.

    Having said all that, don’t think twice. Just buy it and have fun.

    Edit 1: I decided to bring the action down myself using some sand-paper. I just needed to mark the amount I would need gone with a sharp pencil and ruler, scrubbed the bone saddle against the sand paper for like 10 to 15 minutes and and kept testing it until I felt comfortable playing the guitar on the high registries, just because I like to play pieces that involve going all over the neck. Although the action was fair up until the 5th fret, from there on I still had to make a slight effort to bring the strings down against the fretboard when playing chords, and I am the zero-effort type of musician when it comes to regulation and action of the strings. Now it plays perfectly. Lovely guitar. Still recommending it without a second thought.

    Love it. Much easier to use and more forgiving than an accoustic guitar due to the wider neck and distance between strings. Also the nylon strings need less finger pressure to achieve good contact with the frets.

    It’s light in weight so good for young adults. Very much a beginners guitar. However, you get what you pay for so don’t expect it to be as good as a more expensive classical guitar. Nevertheless, better than most in this price range.

    For a relatively cheap guitar, this is an absolute great purchase.

    I got into guitar when I was at my friend’s house and I loved playing theirs. But due to lockdown, I couldn’t really go over. I wanted to keep playing so I started looking on Amazon.

    I knew that Yamaha was always a good brand, no matter what you are buying, and this guitar is no exception.
    I bought this guitar as a beginner and I have never looked back at the purchase.
    It has a great weight and the sound it produces is wonderful.

    The guitar is a great choice not only for those like me, a complete beginner but also for those who are already great and want a classical guitar!

    10/10 will definitely buy another guitar from Yamaha in the future!

    The size is ideal, at least for me. The color, beautiful and elegant.

    I only live in a small studio flat and having five guitars made the place cluttered. Decided to have a clear out and buy one good guitar.

    I’ve always loved nylon stringed guitars. It’s the warm tone that attacks me. This guitar doesn’t disappoint.

    Lovely tone and finish for the price.

    Love it!
