1981 Yamaha Fg 512 Ii 12 String Guitar

This was part of the package for the GL1 Guitalele - Nylon-String Guitar Ukulele (Natural) by Yamaha. It was all given as a gift and well received!

Price was right, replacing my 1981 Yamaha Natural Sound A-760. Sound is full and clear at all ranges of volume. My vinyl, tuner, CDs, and streaming from my laptop are all wonderful.

My son replaced his Yamaha electric guitar stand with this.

I bought this for a Yamaha GL1 6-string guitalele. It fits in the same soft case as my tenor ukes so I thought I would try this hard case. I do not have a bottom strap button installed on my guitalele and the case was a very tight fit. I was concerned that it would put pressure on the neck so I squished down the padding inside from the top and bottom to loosen it up a bit. It seems to be better now. The height of the case is just fine to accommodate the wider body of the Yamaha GL1. The case itself is very lightweight and easy to carry through airports, but sturdy enough to take on an airplane as a carry-on and not worry about it being crushed in the overhead bins. The interior storage compartment has plenty of room for things like picks, capos, tuners, etc. The outside pocket is also nice but I’m not using it for anything.

My first nylon string guitar of this type and I'm absolutely amazed at how nice this is. It's a very light yet solidly built guitar. Fit and finish is stunning. Playability is easily comparable to guitars of this type that are more than twice the price. Very pleased with this guitar.

Works very well on my Cordoba nylon string classical guitar. Firm pressure, grip is effective but doesn't damage anything. Easy to use.

I'm a jazz guitarist playing an 8-string classical guitar that goes higher and lower than a regular guitar. It has a K & K pickup and I my amp is a JBL EON powered speaker, which, for this instrument sounds better than any jazz guitar amp. I have used the Zoom A-3 preamp as well as an L.R. Baggs Venue DI. They are both very good but I'd say the Grace Alix is the best I've found. It has great features you can read about but I must say that the sound of my guitar with the EQ set flat is strong, clear and simply amazing! It's very well thought out. Worth the price.

Still the best bag out there. I bought my first in 1981.

A great inconspicuous tuner. Easy for you to see and nobody else. A must for a 12 string. No excuse for not being in tune. I’ve got six of them.

I play on my guitar but I'll never have a call to get in a band - I'm terrible. At least it's only me who can listen to it. For the Yamaha headphone? It's great. I've also listened to some old albums with them. Go ahead, buy them.
