Yamaha F335 Acoustic Guitar Natural

Product Information

Made in the USA, the D-40 comes standard with an exceptional feature set similar to instruments from Yamaha, including the F335 model. The rosewood fretboard works well, as it should — we all know that rosewood fretboards are reliable, even if some of us prefer other materials. With Yamaha, you know you will be getting pretty solid quality, and a brand which the name speaks for itself – many advocates for Yamaha in the music world. This is a full dreadnought body that comes with a laminated spruce top, meranti back, and meranti sides.

We’ll begin our review of the Yamaha F335 acoustic guitar by taking a closer look at the main features of this instrument.

Like most (if not all) models in the acoustic market, it comes with a rosewood fret-board and chrome tuners – combining the chrome tuners with the black body make a clean sound guitar. The company is known to have produced inexpensive highly durable acoustic guitars since the 60’s and has stood up to their quality standards ever since. The F335's tonewood combination includes a laminate spruce top, rosewood fingerboard and bridge, and meranti back and sides. Near the end of the guitar we’ll see the spruce top is a standard modern tonewood, an elegant type of wood often seen used to make sound boards for various instruments.

Bringing a concert size acoustic guitar during a road trip is almost the same as bringing a fragile cremated ashes of someone you know. For players looking for a guitar at the top end of the cheap acoustic spectrum, the Fender California Newporter Player Acoustic is a guitar you definitely need to try. Some of Yamaha’s musical instruments are sworn on by experts; on the other hand, some of their instruments are aimed more towards beginning players. The spruce top is very sturdy and not very porous, however this could be due to the lowly cut of the wood; the lower quality the wood, the less chances a blemish will be sighted (blemishes are not commonly found in pieces that are glued together, after all). The Yamaha F335 exemplifies why this wood is used as a fretboard material – it gives the guitar a warmer sound than other fretboard materials.The Seagull also has a silver leaf maple integrated set neck for optimal tuning and playing stability – eliminating any twisting or warping while performing. We found that this solid top Fender acoustic is well made, super reliable, and, better yet, it sounds phenomenal. If you’re looking to mainly play the guitar just for yourself, practice, play in a small band, or play in a small venue, the Yamaha F335 is an excellent choice. It is a perfect guitar for starting musicians, as a gift, or even as a spare guitar to have beside your main, more quality ones. The guitar is available in natural, black, and a brown starburst finish, and the pickguard looks nice and offers protection from gouges when you get a little too into it.
