How to choose?

This is due to the fact that there are no guitars that are specifically designed for training. There are just guitars for playing, which is better to acquire immediately with high quality. The bad guitar is almost absolutely 100% disappointment for any student.
When choosing a guitar, it is very important to pay attention to the quality of the material from which it is made. The material significantly affects almost everything. High-quality material is the key to the long service of the instrument, as well as the guarantor of its good sound. It can be safely argued that in the assortment Yamaha all guitars are made on conscience from high-quality wood.
It is important to note the fact that each wood has its own degree of rigidity, which, of course, is the main parameter for the high-quality sound of acoustic musical instruments.
The upper part of the guitar case is usually made of ate or cedar. The spruce allows you to remove a clear and sharp sound, and if there are also steel strings in such a guitar, then success will surely be provided (the sound will be very bright and powerful). As for the cedar, this wood material most often gives a deaf sound. If a string from a nylon is stretched on such a guitar, then the sound will be pretty soft.
The lateral and lower parts of the housing are usually produced from the rosewood and mahogany. Palisandre allows you to get a deep and viscous sound, and Red tree - more melodic and soft. As for maple, it, as a rule, allows you to extract a sharper sound from the tool.
When selecting a suitable tool for a comfortable game, several points are very important, which are listed below.
- The tool must be convenient to use. It is important to pay attention to its parameters such as weight and size.
- Good sound. To do this, you should carefully treat the wood, from which one or another model is made.
- The tool holds the system for a long time. To understand how the guitar is holding a system, it should be played a little. If she is immediately upset after the game, it is better to consider another model. This is especially true for newcomers.
- There should be no defects. When buying a tool it is very important to carefully examine it. For example, very often problems are with a vulture - it can be curves. On the surface of the case, scratches, cracks, scuffs, chips are unacceptable. All this can very much to distort the sound. If there are noticeable visible defects on the deck, the model should not be considered at all.
Ideally choose a guitar, complete with which immediately goes the case.
