I am an old guy I own the JR1. It sounds great... it even beats some full size.. Good intonation, playability and I do not need full size, thisJR1 fits my small body. Another choice I would buy is the 3/4 size Luna, same price range and sounds great as well. This guitar doesn't have to be for kids, adult can get a good use of it for traveling guitar or for small person.

[@modernmusicstudio303]

We love the Yamaha JR1 and JR2s for beginners. They sound and look amazing for a first guitar too! Also a great travel size guitar for adults. Thanks for the video!

[@kimPurima]

This is what im looking for 3 model reviews good for make decision thanks a lot!!

[@morna45]

Great video, - thanks for the comparison. Looks like the JR-2 is just perfect for me. Small hands, etc. Travel guitar that even sounds good.

[@abigailkay2778]

I’m getting the JR1 for my 13th birthday, I finally convinced my parents if it wasn’t my birthday I wouldn’t be getting one so soon😂

[@juliortega9494]

I owned a JR2, great for open and barred chords, but cramped fingerboard for picking. Loved it, though.

[@richardrichard5409]

Words to note, those APXT2's are very quiet acoustically but, great amped up. 😎

[@jakeoneill1049]

What is the measurements on the jr-1 I know a boy who I’m teaching guitar to, and he has one but he doesn’t have a gig bag and I was going to get him one

[@vallesvaldez]

I just got the Yamaha Jr1 today and I love it. My full size Fender will be collecting dust for a while.

Hola Jorge...estoy interesado en comprar uno de estos modelos pero tengo dudas ...Se quedan los trastes pequeños e incómodos para tocar acordes como el la mayor en los cuales se necesita tener muchos dedos muy juntos???...o por el contrario el margen que dan los trastes es similar a una guitarra de tamaño normal?...yo no es que tenga los dedos especialmente gruesos(aunque no son finos de hecho)....es la duda que tengo...gracias de antemano y que disfrutes tu jr1...

[@vallesvaldez]

@@sergiojimenez2179 Qué tal amigo? El diapasón es casi igual a una guitarra normal. Si toma unos 3 - 5 minutos para acostumbrarte pero no tanta la diferencia más bien es el cuerpo de la guitarra que esta reducida. Lo que si debes tomar en cuenta es que la Jr1 esta hecha en Indonesia y la Jr2 hecha en China pero eso es question de gusto. Aparte de eso suena muy bien para su tamaño que es perfecto para viajar o simplemente tocar en el sillon.

[@sergiojimenez2179]

Pues en tal caso seguramente compraré uno de esos modelos..gracias por la información y a disfrutar de tu nueva guitarra!!!

[@powerfulsamuel1565]

I am 75 years old and have arthridis so I just bought thr JR2, I like the size for playing in chair.

[@jjmj9877]

thank you sir!

[@ian11hendri03]

Thank you Sir

[@taliwaya89]

Do you think you could compare these small guitars to larger guitars, but only through the pickup/pre-amp? For example, compare the APX-T2 to the APX, CPX, and FG. But all with the same, or about the same electronics. You can compare them acoustically, but many people want to know, I'm sure, is can you make a small guitar sound big when amplified? What really is the difference when you are performing and using a dreadnought or this little travel guitar, but the main sound people are hearing is through the amp? I've got a Boss VE-8, and so additionally, and perhaps separately, if the same pickup still has a big difference, then how would (or could you) use effects to make the tiny guitar sound like a dreadnought?

[@romeites6398]

I have dreadnought guitar but it’s too big for me. Can you help me which Yamaha guitar is smaller for suitable for me to play? I’m currently own F370 but it’s too big. I love the sound from dreadnought but it’s too big for me. Do you have opinion for this?

What acoustic strings do recommend for jr1

[@RickyGuterson]

Hello. I need to know if the apxt2 will fit in the jr2 gig bag?

[@mjb182]

I might be wrong but I believe JR2 doesn’t have solid top, it’s the JR2S

[@bluesgtrcat]

Correct.

[@rickraydubs]

JR2 wins lol (for me), looking for something for my stepdaughter to learn on. Solid sound, like a mini version of my Yamaha FG800.

[@adityafirdaus3881]

I ever try this and the neck shape is v shape. Do you feel v shape neck confy enough for barechord and large hands, sir?

[@ShuTheRipper]

Is the neck on this the same length as a regular guitar or are there less frets? What about width?

[@dailysinang]

Made in Indonesia?

[@yaraboom6484]

please make a comparison yamaha jr2 vs taylor baby vs martin lx1. Yamaha is much cheaper, I would like to know how much it loses. Thank you.

[@bigal25938]

They hold tune well?

[@joshuahilkia5537]

JR2 more bright..

[@fiddlesticksbessette398]

make's a good traveling guitar,for cramped room in car's,bus,plane,etc,and Nylon String's for beginner's..otherwise finger tips may hurt at first.

[@johnpaulmarte]

What strings are you using. I just got jr2 and sounds boxy

[@vallesvaldez]

Ernie balls earthwood will give it some life.

[@bp69x52]

i think jr2 is not top solid, but jr2s is

[@bluesgtrcat]

None of the models compared have solid spruce tops - they are all laminated tops/sides/backs. The only differences between the JR1 and JR2 are that the JR2 includes a much better gig bag and comes in a wider selection of colors. Other thank that they are identical.

[@Jaysteenn]

My son was able to play this Yamaha easier than the Baby Taylor. His first music lesson they let him use both and you could tell this was more comfortable for him and it played well. I own Yamaha and Taylor and I was gonna buy him a Taylor but the he got a Yamaha .

[@scottsmith4145]

The baby taylor is like 23.5" scale length and the JR1 is like 21.5" so it probably fits his small hands better.

[@rubenthisdikinyourface7366]

What is the difference in size between the jr2 and a regular size acoustic

[@richardrichard5409]

Depends what you call a regular size guitar? These are 3/4 size compared to dreadnoughts if that helps😎

[@rahman.utara.]

What about the JR2S? Is there any difference with JR2 with no S?

[@cjp9835]

The Yamaha website under JR specs shows that the S is a solid spruce top.

[@rayana4250]

Hello, quick question: The fretboard, is it curved or flat? I have the JR2 and I want to buy a capo for it but I have no idea if the fretbaord is curved or flat, so I dont know if i should get a curved capo or a flat one. The capo brand i chose is Victro by Dunlop.

[@malachithompson8065]

a capo is a capo......I really don't know if it matters. I never heard of a curved or flat...……………….

[@rayana4250]

@@malachithompson8065 It matters a lot. Classical/nylon string guitars usually have a flat fretboard while acoustic and electric guitars have radius. And it's very important to use the right capo, curved for guitars with radius and flat for flat fingerboard. If you want to learn about it there are tones of videos that talk about capos.

[@malachithompson8065]

[@rayana4250]

@@malachithompson8065 Nylon string guitars *USUALLY* have flat fretboard while acoustic and electric guitars *USUALLY* have a curved fretboard. That being said, when I checked my Yamaha RJ2 the fretboard looked flat. Which is weird cause acoustics are curved. There for, I wasn't sure which capo to get. So I went to KZbin looked up few video reviews for this gutiar and asked the uploaders if the fretboard is flat or curved and I got an answer from one of them telling me that it is flat.
