PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 
 Amazon Basics Beginner Full-Size Acoustic Guitar with Strings, Picks, Tuner, Strap, and Case - 41-Inch, Spruce and Okoume 

 FROM THE MANUFACTURER 
 Amazon Basics

TechGearLab

The Amazon Basics Beginner Full-Size 6-String Acoustic was a surprise winner. At this price, beginners won't be disappointed with the budget guitar they will receive. It's just as good-looking as our favorite choice, the Fender FA-125, and with its large dreadnought body, it's capable of a big, booming sound. The intonation, though not impeccable, was absolutely passable. It also seems to have a pretty solid structure to it. Picks like to disappear, but you won't have to worry about purchasing extra since this kit includes six good-quality ones. The included e-tuner was our favorite tuner we encountered, with a nice, bright display and a flexible head.
Although this guitar has a decent sound, when compared to the other full-sized guitars we tested, the tone was less balanced, more bass-heavy, and thinner and more metallic. This guitar did fall out of tune a little easier and had some accuracy issues with tuning, but once the strings were worn in and stretched, these problems seemed to resolve. Of all the full-sized guitars we tested, the strings on this one felt the cheapest; they were thicker and hard to depress, which can be discouraging to beginners. They sound fine, but for a better sense when playing, we recommend re-stringing this guitar with light-gauge strings of a higher quality.

amazon.com

techgearlab.com

 were wonderful additions. The only things that could've made it more complete/better would've been re-stringing tools and a kapo. Oh and if they're going to include strings, they really should've included instructions for re-stringing it as well, but alas, you'll have to find a YouTube video for that. The quality and craftsmanship of the guitar itself is very nice, especially for the money!! I was super impressed with the feel and the sound!  What I was not so impressed with was the fact that the guitar wouldn't hold its tuning for very long

Good beginner guitar, but mine doesn't hold tuning very well

 Comes in a nice carry bag, has extra accessories like picks and strings. Cost under $150, but for about the same price you can get a name brand guitar without all the added accessories; so it's a good price for the little extras that you get. AmazonBasics are a hit or miss with a lot of their products, some are good, some are equivalent to the dollar store stuff.

Hit or Miss

 This one is actually a delightful set for beginners of all ages who want to learn guitar basics without busting their bank account. Great bang for your buck if you're a beginner!

 Anyone can customize it to make it look more professional.  While intermediate to more advanced guitar players probably won't be impressed with this guitar, it's not made for that audience - it's specifically for beginners as an extremely basic guitar and nothing more, so I'm reviewing it as such. You WILL want to upgrade later on, if you stick with it. That said, both my husband and I agreed that it's a very good one for beginners, and combined with the "starter pack" that is actually quite decent, this is really a nice set to get for someone who is just starting out (or perhaps has a general interest in learning it here and there)

Since this is an AmazonBasics "brand," I can't imagine it being over-priced (again - no pricing is listed at the time of writing this, so I have no way of knowing for sure what they're going to price it at), so I'm going out on a limb and assuming this whole set will be at least comparable to or less than others at this level. The fact that they include almost everything to get you started will undoubtedly be of a good value to begin with, and for someone getting this as a gift, it's perfect - you need nothing more to buy (except maybe some music books)!  Overall, this was actually better than I was expecting, and I love it when products exceed my expectations

 This comes with an impressive amount of accessories - basically, everything you need to get started, minus the sheet music - and is a perfect "one-stop shop" for a beginner who may not be looking to initially invest a whole lot of dough on something like this.  Guitars are one of those musical instruments that require replacement parts from time to time, so it's really nice to have them included in this set. You get a couple of picks, some replacement strings, a tuner, a guitar strap, and a carrying case. There's also included instructions, which show you how to replace the strings - something essential that all beginners will need to know, obviously

Nice basic guitar with nearly everything you need to get started - all but the sheet music!

Yamaha FG800 Acoustic Review

 a classic look, kind of reminds me of some of the Taylor guitar aesthetics. On the back of the neck, you've got a nice satin finish so that makes for really comfortable, comfortable feel on the neck for your hand while you're playing. And I like the satin sort of not too glossy smoothness that I'm getting on the back of the neck on this guitar compared to the glossier finish that you get on the rest of the body. So some special attention was put to the feel of the neck for the guitar playing, Hand fret work along the guitar is really nice and that's what really sort of defines the Yamaha Fg800 to me

 So full-size guitar body, but it doesn't feel overly big or anything. If you're concerned about the size of your guitar, I'd say this is a comfortable shape to go with, but nice full sound. Coming from the Dreadnought style Fg-800 guitar body, Yamaha makes it really simple with the Fg 800. just a straight up all-around acoustic guitar experience, but I'm finding it really comfortable to play and once again, just that Yamaha consistency just means I know what I'm going to get when I purchase an Fg800 and that makes it a really fun guitar to play

 The action is nice and comfortable. The neck is very easy to play, so I'm finding this guitar really fun and responsive and it's also got a nice bright sound. I would definitely describe this particular guitar as a slightly brighter sounding guitar. Could be something that's coming from the strings, but generally a bright tone coming from this guitar

Yamaha FG800 Review! One of the Best Beginner Guitars of 2022?

 See if you can get it set up as well so that it’s comfortable to play. They are truly lovely guitars regardless of price and have a build quality much higher than others at that price.

My boyfriend has hinted that he would like an acoustic guitar for Christmas. We were in Costco a few weeks ago and he nodded to a Fender that was £99 but I can’t remember the name of it now. He also said something about Fender “____” guitars not being as good? Doesn’t have to be the one I’m describing but if anyone knows something the same price (or lower cause I wanted to get him something else) that would be amazing. Thanks!

[QUESTION] Gift for boyfriend?

 That's a guitar that you're going to be able to play into your intermediate level and beyond. Really, it's just a great guitar. great fretwork, Yamaha really does keep very great quality control and this guitar is a testament to that. I'm going to play some stuff so you could hear it a little bit more and uh yeah, let's check out you you Oh you you you you you you

 It's a satin back neck which I like you don't have that finish there that your hand seems to get caught on and just really at this price point, probably one of the finer guitars they're out there generally. In this price point, you get a lot of manufacturers offering guitars that have laminate tops and that's never good because it's like a bunch of pieces of plywood glued together. This has a solid top. A single solid top which resonates right

 The sound transfers through the whole top. That's really what you want to look for. That's a guitar that you're going to be able to play into your intermediate level and beyond. Really, it's just a great guitar

 You've got excellent Grover style tuners. Really high-quality tuners. It's a satin back neck which I like you don't have that finish there that your hand seems to get caught on and just really at this price point, probably one of the finer guitars they're out there generally. In this price point, you get a lot of manufacturers offering guitars that have laminate tops and that's never good because it's like a bunch of pieces of plywood glued together

Yamaha FG800 Demo & Review

 It suits it's purpose. I just ordered an AC5R. I hope the sound of that one inspires me a little more. I did replace the stock strings with Elixr PB 80/20s, ad maybe that dulled the tone

 Action was so high it was unplayable for me, especially on the upper frets. cost $80 to lower the action/shave the saddle. There's a few sloppy finish areas on the fretboard and where the neck meets the body. The dot markers on top the fretboard are barely visible but the side markers are good and visible

 I do't know. I'm trying to get a nice tone for outlining barre chords and jazz chords in forms 1 and 5 with my thumb. Maybe the electronics in the AC5M are the answer.

Sharp edges on frets

 They're 200 bucks. You could probably find one cheaper used, although I haven't really seen a lot of these pop-up used. Um, but it's probably one of the least expensive guitars that actually has a solid top. It's got a solid spruce top, which is a big thing in acoustic guitars If you're looking to step up, you know from just a cheap plywood 100 buck guitar acoustic, you know this is probably the next logical step

 I played it quite a bit in some of my videos. Um, I bought it way after I was a beginner, so I still play it a lot. I have a Martin D12 and another epiphone uh, Ej 200 and this is probably my number three acoustic, but I still play it. I play that a lot

 and uh, you can also see different layers. Um, the there's like four five different layers of wood here right here. so that's not a solid piece. I'm not sure if this is a laminated also, this neck

 This thing will probably improve, the tone will improve with time, and it's got the solid Sitka spruce top. and uh, it actually looks like a fairly thick piece of spruce. which I don't know if that makes it good or bad necessarily for an acoustic to have a thicker top, but a lot of times you can look inside the sound hole there. I don't know if it really shows up, but if you're not sure if the guitar has a solid top, you can look inside the sound hole and you can kind of see the wood grain

Yamaha FG800 review

 Stays in tune. Loud! Comes with good strings, for an inexpensive guitar. Good value, good guitar.

It appears well made, no frets need filing.  They say small body-this thing is loud! If you need it to be. Yeah, great for money, and very good altogether. I’d recommend it to newbie learning acoustic-scale length a little shorter-a plus

Excellent for money-loud!!

 The action was very high and the neck had a significant bow in it. Again, you have to expect these type of things with the price, but if you're a beginner, you might not know that this is something you have to address. The good side of this is that a hex wrench was included with the guitar and adjusting the neck and lowering the action was very easy and has held since adjusted.  All things said, it plays a sounds well at a great price

Bought this guitar to keep at a second property, so didn't want to spend a lot of money. You can see where the money was saved in construction and components. The neck isn't a scarf joint, but a straight joint and the tuners are cheap and inconsistent with how they turn, lots of rough spots. That all said, for just a little over $200 you have to expect costs to be saved in these places

 Overall the build quality is solid, no real issues, nice clean joints and clean finishing. Great overall value.  Most importantly, the guitar sounds very good and plays easily. One thing to note, is that the guitar needed to be set up when it was delivered

Great guitar for the price

 It's been early. It's been late. And this was acoustic parody. So it was the Yamaha FG and FS guitars

 Oh I see. Everybody knows that. If you ever listen to any show or anything everyone will say ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh. You ok there with your new lapel mic from Shure? I'm ok with my new Shure XM183

 And at some point, if I really want to, I'll spend 150 quid on a pickup. Yeah, I like it. I like because it keeps the guitars relatively lightweight. Yeah

 Yeah. It says Yamaha Corp, doesn't it? Yeah. Well, there we go. I think it's time that we need to go and get some lunch
