Yamaha CGS103AII 3/4-Scale Classical Review

Great !!

For the money this guitar has great features. First, it has a compensated bridge for better intonation. Having said that, the bridge is a little high you may want to sand it down on the bottom like a millimeter or two. Second, it has a satin neck which is way better than a heavily lacquered one. Third, the 3/4 size is a great size especially with the nut width which on this one… read more is less than 2 inches most classical have a 2 inch nut, which is too wide for me. Bottom line, Yamaha seems to put a lot of thought into their guitars, even the cheap ones.

Good quality of Guitar!

I didn't expect much about Yamaha CGS103AII 3/4-Scale Classical Guitar because of its low price. To my surprise, this guitar is amazing: not only it has a beautiful design, but also has beautiful sound. The color is much better than shown on the web page. I'm 5'2" and this size and weight are just perfect. This item was our of stock when I ordered, but I decided to wait. … read more Fiinally received it 4 weeks later. Updated shipping information that customer service (Rafael) sent me was very helpful.

Excellent value for the money

I purchased this guitar for my ten year old grandson. He had outgrown his 1/2 size guitar and this Yamaha was the perfect 3/4 upgrade. Good tone & playability. Made and finished well. In its size and class, you can't go wrong with this one.

Excellent student guitar

I have guitars, basses and drums in the "guitar room" downstairs and my 5 year old granddaughter and 8 year old grandson love "playing" them at every opportunity. My grandson has started guitar lessons through an after school program, and he's very excited to learn how to play. The school uses the Yamaha CGS103A as the instrument of choice and they provide him with a rather beat… read more up loaner to learn on so he is familiar with the instrument and likes it. He asked Santa for his very own acoustic guitar "just like my school guitar" for Christmas so luckily, my friends at Sweetwater (where I buy all my gear-thanks Dustin!) had in stock. As always, I received the guitar quickly and in pristine condition. I should mention that my grandson is left handed so I did restring the guitar for a lefty which is much easier with a nylon string classical as the nut cuts are relatively the same for all strings and the bridge isn't compensated very much, so it works well. I am very impressed with the guitar! Beautiful wood, stable tuners, nice action, and amazing tone! I played it some before restringing and was quite amazed at the playability, tone and quality at this price point! My only other Yamaha is a SBV500 4-string bass which is excellent so perhaps I shouldn't have been surprised. Thanks to Dustin Keesbury and everyone at Sweetwater for another perfect transaction, beautiful addition to my family's collection, and helping make my grandson very happy on Christmas morning!
