In the past decade or so I have owned a 12-string A/E Yamaha and an FG730S Series 6-string, which remains my go to acoustc for beautiful sweet tones from the solid rosewood sides, and back.The sustain and resonance from the Yamaha X-brace type construction is on par with that from any of the great guitar companies according to those of us who have discovered these. I wanted another acoustic with a different set of tonal response that could "cut through" better when needed, especially live, and I found that in this A1M. The mahogany back, sides, and neck imparts just the right amount of forward presence, with more attack than a mostly rosewood model. I don't know if there have been some changes in production, but my instrument has an ebony fretboard with a rosewood ... MoreIn the past decade or so I have owned a 12-string A/E Yamaha and an FG730S Series 6-string, which remains my go to acoustc for beautiful sweet tones from the solid rosewood sides, and back.The sustain and resonance from the Yamaha X-brace type construction is on par with that from any of the great guitar companies according to those of us who have discovered these.

I don't know if there have been some changes in production, but my instrument has an ebony fretboard with a rosewood bridge and headstock overlay, which is VERY thick. Vintage sized, nickel silver frets on an ebony fingerboard are a perfect match feel great on your fingers; this is unmistakable and unique! The bleached mahogany binding on the fingerboard and the inlay on the rosette are understated and elegant; if you play well, the sound will speak for itself. These are great instruments and very under-rated. I think that Yamaha acoustic's above this price point are equally nice, but don't seem to represent as high a level of value as the A1's , the LL's, and even the top end FG's.

I'm back to Yamaha...they just feel right.I've been playing cheap Yamaha acoustics for years...a red label made in Japan, a cheap F335, a cheaper F01. I tried "better" guitars...I own a Martin dreadnought and a Martin 000...don't get me wrong...they're good guitars...but I like the Yamaha necks the best.This A1M feels like you're playing an electric...you can almost shred on it.The ONLY thing I don't like about it are the tuners...they're the cheapest feeling thing on the guitar. The neck/frets are nice and smooth/rounded. The action is low...almost electric guitar low.This is my new favorite acoustic guitar.

Overall:Every so often I have to at least pretend I need a new Guitar. While pretending last month, I decided on a Yamaha TransAcoustic, and ordered a red one in Buffalo NY. Since I currently own Taylor, DN-3, and 214 CE, Godin, 5th ave Kingpin and A6Ultra, TaK EF381SC 12 String, and Current Favorite Epiphone Masterbuilt 500MCE, I had a great group to base a comparison with. The Yamaha's built in Chorus and Reverb quickly became a non factor, and the Tone and Feel of the TransAcoustic, made me want to return the Guitar, which I did after about 4 weeks. I went back in the Acoustic room for 2 hours, and surprise, came back out with the Yamaha A1M. Reason for this choice was based on 75% Playability and feel. It was pretty much the only guitar in the Less expensive ... MoreOverall:Every so often I have to at least pretend I need a new Guitar.

It was pretty much the only guitar in the Less expensive Area, other than Epiphone 500mce that had the correct set-up and "Feel" of a more expensive Taylor or Martin. I have done Open Mic and this guitar is close to the more expensive guitars I have in plugged in tone and equal in Playability. Great value!

I wanted to replace my Guild 260CE and tried to buy a couple of used Takamine's and they both had major issues so I went to the acoustic room and started trying guitars. Really liked the Taylor 110e until my salesman Bill said "here, try this". Normally I only buy used guitars and had no idea I was trying a new guitar until after I'd made the decision to purchase this one. The tone and playability were obvious instantly. I've never enjoyed an acoustic so much and after having owned it for a while still in love with playing it and keep reaching for it. A guitar you keep wanting to play is a keeper and this Yamaha punched all the features. To me, the laminated sides and back are a plus and expect this guitar to play well year round and keep it hydrated anyway so it ... MoreI wanted to replace my Guild 260CE and tried to buy a couple of used Takamine's and they both had major issues so I went to the acoustic room and started trying guitars.

Went to local GC to try and auditon an LL6M or an LL16M and got shown this A Series by the store manager, who had both a dread and a concert size in stock. I immediately went for the dreat cutaway and was more then impressed with the tone quality and what I saw in the construction of the guitar. Basically a huge step up from the FG and FGX models, but not that much additional cost. Better tone woods, amazing combination of wood and plastisol binding, solid satin finished mahogany headstock with MOP logo inlay, and in my case, a striped ebony fingerboard with polished mahogany binding, white position markers on the side and abalone dots on top. More pronounced bottom end, and faster decay from this instrument when compared to one with rosewood sides and back, but the ... MoreWent to local GC to try and auditon an LL6M or an LL16M and got shown this A Series by the store manager, who had both a dread and a concert size in stock.

More pronounced bottom end, and faster decay from this instrument when compared to one with rosewood sides and back, but the sweetness of tone remains. Tinted top conjurs up images of older Martins and Guilds with cedar or Adriondak spruce tops. Best to change out the plastic nut and saddle, which for this caliber of instrument, makes no sense and is the only negative. A.R.T electonics and a sophisticated piezo under saddle pickup produce a clear and genuine sound of the guitar. Unmatched value in a guitar that, with just a couple of minor changes, will hold it's own with Martins and Taylors costing twice as much or more!
I was pleasantly surprised with what this guitar has to offer for the price point. Tonally it is one of the best I have heard. The projection is much better than any of the competition at this price point. The only thing I can say is they should charge an extra $25 and switch to a bone nut and saddle. It would truly open this instrument up.
I was looking for a good steel string acoustic guitar but didn't want to spend $1000 dollars on one . Went to my local Guitar Center and played a lot of different brand name guitars in the $500 dollar range . I finally narrowed my search down to 3 possible guitars , 2 Yamaha's and a Seagull . The 2 Yamaha's are the same model but one of them had a better sound and awesome sustain . I must say though that I very nearly chose the Seagull S6 Original , very nice guitar . This Yamaha I chose has a slightly better sound and the sustain could not be beat . Not only does it sound great but the playability of it is like that of a much more expensive guitar . The action is incredibly low without any buzz. I do have one complaint but it's not really a bad one because I love ... MoreI was looking for a good steel string acoustic guitar but didn't want to spend $1000 dollars on one . Went to my local Guitar Center and played a lot of different brand name guitars in the $500 dollar range . I finally narrowed my search down to 3 possible guitars , 2 Yamaha's and a Seagull . The 2 Yamaha's are the same model but one of them had a better sound and awesome sustain . I must say though that I very nearly chose the Seagull S6 Original , very nice guitar . This Yamaha I chose has a slightly better sound and the sustain could not be beat . Not only does it sound great but the playability of it is like that of a much more expensive guitar . The action is incredibly low without any buzz. I do have one complaint but it's not really a bad one because I love this guitar . The tag on the guitar said it had "solid" mahogany back and sides . I looked up the guitar on Guitar Centers site and the description said the same . I bought this guitar thinking it was solid wood but it's actually a mahogany laminate. This was kind of a let down for me but nevertheless it's really all about how it sounds and plays . One more thing on the sustain, it just rings for the longest time , really beautiful. As it's ringing it has a sort of slight reverb effect and I can feel it through the back up against my abdomen. I have not found many guitars in this price range that do that .
I've had it about a year...replaced the tuners with locking...I didn't like the originals...they were the cheapest thing about this guitar. It's got it's own sound. It doesn't sound like my Martin...nor my friends Taylor...it sounds like this Yamaha.I got it because of the neck...it's thin...like my electric guitars. I play this like my electric guitars...lots of notes. If you're looking for an acoustic that has a neck closer to an electric...this is a good choice. I put 9s on mine...not loud...not a lot of bass...but boy...does it play nice.I'd replace it if stolen/destroyed.
