Yamaha Acoustic Guitar Review

The BEST Cheap Guitar in the
$250 Price Range

We're talking about the Yamaha F345 Sycamore Top Acoustic Guitar, which sells for $230 at Guitar Center.

One of our beginning guitar students picked this axe up one afternoon after deciding it was time to invest in a guitar and start learning. Luckily she fell upon this model.

For a guitar that's under $500, we must say the F345 has a lot going for it and is perfect for the budget minded pro or the beginner.

A lot of times we get asked, "What the best cheap acoustic guitar in the $250 price range?"

Our Yamaha F345 has been the answer to that question ever since we first played it. And after two months of playing this 6 string and having our student learn on it, it continues to impress us.

"...the wood and finish makes it look like a much more expensive instrument..."

The instrument's top is made of sycamore while the back and sides are mahogany. Rosewood was used for both the fretboard and bridge. Our model is like the one pictured with a nice tobacco sunburst finish.

This Yamaha stays in tune incredibly, which is one of the most impressive features for a guitar in this price range. Even after a week of playing and practicing, it's still in great tune and only requires a fine tuning.

Finally, the tones produced by the dreadnaught style body are full, crisp, and pleasing even to veteran guitar players. Both fingerstyle guitar and flatpick strumming flow smoothly from this fine affordable acoustic.

In conclusion, our pick in this price range is the Yamaha F345 Sycamore Top Acoustic Guitar Tobacco Brown Sunburst.
