The Best Acoustic Guitar I Ever Owned

[@stephenrogers324]

That's 3 minutes I'll never get back stick to the organ you play that beautifully

[@HAULHipHop]

7 million keyboards, no guitar tuner.

[@rango_unchained]

Oh man, I loved this vid, that music, that guitar! Especially that guitar! I had to have that guitar! I went online to buy one. I didn't care how much it was. I added it to my cart along with the awesome bundle package, selected yes on the additional 3 year warranty, pulled out my trusty Capital One card, entered all the pertinent information, clicked yes to buy, DECLINED.

[@jims5922]

What a coincident. I was playing my AC5R when this video came on. Great video, btw. First time viewer, I'll be back. I searched a long time for an acoustic that had a sound I knew I could enjoy everyday. For the longest time I thought it had to be a M or a G or a T. I tried many of them...and returned them, disappointed. A session guitarist I met at a mutual friend's bd party asked if I'd ever played a Yamaha acoustic. I hadn't, he told me you can't go wrong with any Yamaha. From our conversation he sugested I check out the A series. After a few weeks of researching Yamaha I ordered my AC5R. Best guitar decision I've ever made. That was three years ago. I do have a Martin U.S. made 12 string and a Gibson J200. I love both. They each have their places but my AC5R is my everyday guitar. It was in tune and sounded great when I got it. It sounds even better now. I moved 1200 miles in mid June from warm SoCal to northern Washington. My 22 guitars were with the movers for 3 weeks. My AC5R was the only one that was in tune when I finally got to open the case.

[@matthewmoore2839]

Love the Syntaur shirt! Great people.

[@FLH3official]

I've seen it as well, I appreciate, Syntaur are good people. I've never bought something from them (distance, weight, etc...) but they gave me some realy good advices and infos thru email without trying to sell me something. They're realy passionate in their job and know a lot about the old synths we love

[@elanejoreserva]

Yamaha: You don't know wich one to buy, but you'll never get stuck with bad stuff.

[@brianharbut4054]

True! 👍

[@derekperez1418]

Yeah even the entry level are good players

[@jamesfe5]

That could be risky buying online like he did without feeling and trying an expensive guitar.

[@randolphbrown1128]

Very happy with my A5R. It’s my main gig guitar now. Also like my FGX5.

[@fleadoggreen9062]

What’s the model ?

[@questioneverything3332]

Wow yamaha sent this guy a $1600 guitar. Yes everyone this a a very expensive guitar with outstanding quality features. Very nice. Congratulations. Just shows hard work pays off.

[@Logan24855]

Yamaha doesn’t make junk. My next acoustic would be either a Taylor, Yamaha, or Takamine. Cheers mate!!✊✊

[@DIY-valvular]

You can never get wrong getting a Yamaha instrument or audio stuff. Such a beautiful guitar! Now you need to get a nice drum kit and a couple of valve Fender and Marshall amps and a strat and an sg... ;-))))

[@donharrold1375]

Ever looked at Furch guitars? Amazing acoustics, roughly half the price of a Martin but just brilliant quality and sound. A good acoustic is something you’ll keep for life. I wish Yamaha would send me one too!

[@brianharbut4054]

Totally agree! 👍

[@quantumsound2423]

I had few Taylor guitars, but when I got Yamaha FG-800 guitar I sold my Taylors.

[@msolrac-07]

Which Taylor did you have? Any good recommendation after having some of them?

[@chuckychucky9968]

What? Are you serious?

[@TheLukejitsu]

If you ever get the chance, try a Takamine. After looking into them you suddenly start seeing them in the hands of touring professionals everywhere and for good reason. They are just incredible.

[@BADDying]

My actual and only acoustic guitar is a Takamine :)

[@djentlover]

+1 for this, absolutely love my P1DC. But I bet any acoustic guitar constructed by Japanese craftsmen is amazing.

[@michaelc7207]

P3NC owner here! My favorite Takamine! Rosewood P5DC will be next! (Hopefully). Great video and I admire Yamaha as well don’t have one yet but been looking hard! lol

[@TheMrdavies666]

Never played a bad Takamine theyre great

[@gcoudert]

I have a second-hand EG340SC, a relatively inexpensive model but I love it.

[@tonylancer7367]

Doctor Mix, what instrument do you not play? 😊 You are such an incredible inspiration and player!

[@valleyken]

He even played the funnel one day ! But give him a rubber band and 2 paperclips and he'll play that too :D

[@jameshamaker9321]

@@valleyken ... truth. I'm sure if you made an instrument out of, a popcorn bucket, heat shrink plastic film and a giant rubber band, with the film being like a drum skin and the rubber band, acting like the rim, he'd end up playing the thing, like a bongo drum. Of course, there is need to form the film, first making sure it's the thickness, of a Pringles chip can lid, before doing this. If this happens, I'd totally watch the video.

[@valleyken]

@@jameshamaker9321 haha future video ... weird instruments

[@jameshamaker9321]

@@valleyken ... Totally. I'd watch that video series, would you?

[@valleyken]

@@jameshamaker9321 Absolutely. "All the world is a musical instrument, and we are merely players" :-D

[@robertoyamakata6672]

What an ear to tune the guitar so easy. That shows that you are an impressive musician.

[@JeremyGray-jg4db]

He never had this guitar in tune once in this video that I can tell no offense mind you, I was just really looking to hear the sound of this specific guitar but no matter this wasn't a guitar I was looking to hear come to find out the one I'm looking to hear is a Yamaha 420 E-C, But would have been nice to have heard this guitar by itself just with some basic chords playing through your adequately provided sound equipment.

[@cmiller4171]

Claudio you are AMAZING!!!!!!! Loved this video. Stay well and safe! Chris and Dave

[@matsonhill3646]

It’s been asked numerous times. Which A5 Model is this? I’m getting so close to buying one of these.

[@harveydhb]

i just found your channel and it's amazing how many things I've learn from you so far. Such a talented guy!

[@MatthewSutton]

That's brilliant! But you really just need a tuning app on your phone.. it's such an accurate way of tuning.. thanks man..👍

[@PhilipValdesMusic]

Yamaha is my favorite guitar/jet ski manufacturer

[@valleyken]

First guitar I bought with my own money was/is a Yamaha FX370C with solid top. Not the most expensive, but very nice quality anyway. But I do prefer classical guitars with the nylon strings. They sound softer/warmer, and are (in my opinion) easier to play. My first love. Until Claudio turned me onto synths, which are so much easier to play than guitars :D

[@robintaylor1296]

Hearing you mention the smell made me laugh. Because I used to have a very expensive Martin acoustic and I used to open the case just to smell it.😂 God I loved that guitar. By the way awesome playing never seen you play guitar.

[@BADDying]

Martins, when are new, smell of fantastic animal glue :)

[@CerealDust-nStuff]

Parkwood, Gibson Hummingbird, and Seagull (bear-claw spruce custom) are the best acoustic guitars I've ever owned, but the Parkwood is my favorite.

[@rustywidebottom4678]

WTF man, you shred! Please make a couple guitar videos. Would love to hear you play! ❤️🎸

[@Tutorius]

For the tuning i always use the "Flasche leer-Technik" (named so by my friends), the flagolet-technique to tune the strings... :)

[@gottbean5440]

I love your enthuisiam. I have this guitar and I love it too.💗

[@PebblesChan]

Claudio, What a strange tuning method you have! Please keep your guitar in the case (with humidifer) when not using it. Doing this protects the guitar from drying out and cracking/spliting. With your experience I thought you’d know and hum A440Hz instantly.

[@aperezdeal]

What? Guitar…you?!!!!! That’s awesome!

[@antoninoparisi1980]

Bravo dottor mix!! Anche chitarrista!!!

[@BADDying]

wow, that guitar sounds really good with his preamp too! very good demo. Yamahas guitars are very good, from acoustics to electrics and everything in between. I even owned Martin and Taylor, but with yamaha you can't go wrong in any price range

[@hereasafanofallsorts5164]

I've heard that they are useless as acoustic instruments and need to be plugged in - I believe it was none other than Bert Jansch who said this 🤔

[@BADDying]

@@hereasafanofallsorts5164 I heard something like that several times about Takamine guitars... in some ways it was true... but nowadays Takamine guitars play well even unplugged. Sometimes eastern brands lack of character in the sound but that does not mean that they play bad... lack of personality is another way to say versatile :)

[@hereasafanofallsorts5164]

@@BADDying oh yeah and I'm sure this may have changed for the better over the years but that quote always interested me because he could have played anything he wanted to really but chose Yamaha for his live performances - I certainly dont think it was knocking the brand or guitar - maybe just attesting to the fact that they had exceptional electrics I think

[@MikeJamesGuerard]

Bonjour! Merci beaucoup pour le temps que tu prends pour faire les vidéos. 🇨🇦

Searched this guitar model after someone praised it on a gibson G45 review, gotta say, it really sounds incredible here

[@tcepilot]

We just read the same comment and clicked on the same video for the same reason. Nuts!

[@stevecappella7358]

Yo man. Nice job. That song is so "listenable". I could have closed my eyes and chilled out to you just playing that all day long. Thanks for your enthusiasm and various content. God bless you and keep it coming.

[@mariocontreras1911]

So proud to see you vibrate some strings today. You scored big, with the new Yamaha.

That is a beautiful sound off that guitar.

Thanks Yamaha ❤️ and you

[@mattricav]

What about the A3 is it worth the difference in price to buy a A5? Or is the A3 good enough?

[@vinmakesthings]

Very nice of the Yamaha people to hook you up with such a gorgeous instrument. Maybe if I tell them all how wonderful and handsome they all are and that Yamaha are wonderful, they’ll hook me up with a new flute 😊

[@DjNikGnashers]

Yamaha make great guitars, for production line guitars anyway. Had a couple in the past, and along with a Takamine, thought I never needed another guitar. That was until I bought my Lowden..................... ..............I sold all my other guitars, and now only have one, a Lowden. It is better than anything I have ever played.

[@Aniki82]

ahah it was about time ! :) :) acoustic can be very handy for chill composition or voice exercices mm also the Classical guitar can be very pleasing for the soothing sound and melow vibe ps : that tuning was very nice even if it's out of tune ahaha ^^ It's seems quite a lot of musician can tune in EB instead it was a pretty good ear !

[@GShockWatchFan.]

Did you receive it free or did Yamaha sponsor the video? I am asking so I can make an informed decision. I am cool that I don't have perfect either, respect for being cool with that, same for most. You play great, I learned it's not the gear but the playing and learning that matters.

I'm curious now, what could he do, with an electric guitar? I'm thinking, like a Les Paul or a Gibson.

[@slesher84]

I really like the Yamaha products in terms of bass guitars. The BB series of bass guitars is one of my favorites. But acoustic guitars are not the tone I want. They are probably perfect for songwriters. Maybe slide musicians will find inspiration in Yamaha acoustic guitars. For bluesmen whose timbre of voice is not too low and grasping, Yamaha guitars will be the main instrument. But I would not have yamaha guitars as my main instrument. I want to write instrumental music and the acoustic guitar seems to me to have a tight lower register sound. If there were a second guitars in my track, I would probably have chosen the Yamaha acoustics. Thanks for attention.

[@slesher84]

@Luke Interesting, but this is not the tone and sound that I would like to hear in my mix.

[@jonnyparks3362]
