Yamaha NTX3 NT Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Nylon-String Classical Guitar With Reinforced Carrying Bag , Natural

I just received this guitar a week ago. I have already played it extensively and am very pleased with it. It is an easy player, as I’d hoped, and the Atmosfeel system is as good as I’d hoped also. I already have a fleet of Yamaha guitars so I am a fan. I have especially liked the SRT pickup system for better acoustic sound, and this Atmosfeel system should make a good successor. I can manage a very decent live acoustic sound with it, and that’s remarkable with a nylon stringed guitar. A very user friendly, adaptable guitar.

I purchased this guitar seeing a 30 day return policy with no stipulations or limitations noted. When I received the guitar, I found that it had a extremly thin or muted sound and a more difficult 6th string thumb reach. The pick up was crap. So, when I returned it, it was only then that they provided the vague return policy language that revealed charging you both shipping and restocking fees of approximately $150. And you needed to scan the printer shipping receipt printout where they cleverly had the language buried. Go with the smaller vendors like Quinn Violins, where they allow you to play and return for no fees (unless damaged). I didn't need to return a guitar I bought at Quinn Violins, but it was nice to know I could. What sense does it make to purchase $1,000 guitar online if you can't back up its playability and sound?

good acoustic tone, but great pickup setup! Sounds brilliant through a Fishman acoustic amp.

O violão é muito bem construído, as madeiras são maciças (nogueira nas laterais, muito bonita, abeto no tampo, ébano na escala e mogno no braço) o violão é flat, com sistema triplo de captação atmosfeel e largura na pestana de 48 mm (o tradicional clássico é de 52 mm). Pestana e rastilho são de material sintético urea. Segura bem a afinação, tenho há quase 1 ano e não apresentou nenhum defeito de construção ou acabamento. Vem com bolsa de transporte própria da Yamaha que é um show a parte, muito bem construída e no formato preciso do violão, melhor que um hardcase na minha opinião. Muito confortável de tocar e para mim que tenho mãos pequenas facilita bastante ter escala curva com menor largura, parecido com uma guitarra. Os compositores e músicos Rodrigo y Gabriela utilizam a versão top ele com a NTX 5e ela com a NCX 5 que tem medidas de violão clássico. Ótima aquisição, valor justo pela qualidade do material, quem toca plugado vai amar, quem toca apenas acústico pode preferir a linha GC 10 S( tampo abeto) ou C (tampo cedro) que são violões sem cutway e 100% formato clássico todos de madeira sólida e boa qualidade sonora e de construção.
