Hi together,
here in Germany my local Guitar Dealer showed me a Yamaha LJ36 guitar and I
was really impressed about the sound and quality of this thing (Yamaha
handcrafted series) -- but also about the price: about 2.800 U$. I was
looking around for a Martin, Taylor or Lakewood guitar (a bread-and-butter
guitar: litle bit finger picking and a lot of blues), but he recommended
also to test out the Yamaha.
The dealer told me, that I should overcome my prejudice about 'japanese'
guitars -- and that Yamaha guitars in the US are much more appreciated than
in Europe and the prices are higher for the guitars than in Germany.
So, my questions is do you agree with my dealer:
- About the quality of high-end guitars from Yamaha or japanese guitar in
general?
- About buying a high price Yamaha insted of a Martin, Taylor or Lakewood?
- Any comments particularly about the L series of Yamaha, which was
introduced in 2004?
Thanks a lot for your comments, ideas & thoughts.
Best Regards
Jasmin
