This should really be in all other guitars.

Looks alright 'suppose. You should do an demo so we can hear it.

I've heard many good things about Yammy acoustics. Let me know if they are true.

the piezo sounds, well like a piezo - although better than the last one i had. useable sounds therein, and a great mid-range EQ band. i bought this guitar primarily to play live with, probably via a PA. i am thinking about getting one of those fishman pedals to soften the piezoness of it, have seen some demos and they sound really nice. the onboard tuner is great - exactly what you need when you have had a few guinnesses. :)

i tried it though my twin and it sounded awful, but through a line 6 tone port on my PC it sounds super. guess you really need an acoustic amp. i'll record some stuff tomorrow with it when i have tuned the EQ to the sound i like.

as for the yamaha thing - yeah, i bought this as my friend has a folk size one from the 70s and it is amazing.

the build quality and set up are first rate, for a guitar this price you get a lot for your money.

Oval sound holes just don't do it for me, but to each his own.
