Yamaha FJX720SC & FGX730SC receive strong reviews
Posted on 24th Aug 2009 11:23 to category Instruments News
Two new mini-Jumbo FJX electro acoustic guitars have been praised by Guitar and Bass Magazine.
The two new guitars are the FJX720SC, and the slightly more expensive FJX730SC.
The FJX720SC is a solid spruce / nato model with the traditional undersaddle pickup associated with Yamaha guitars.
Looking at the FJX720SC, the reviewer praised the fret-dressing and the action setup on the guitar.
With regards to the sound, the reviewer stated that the guitar is “everything a mini-jumbo should be.
Dynamics and acoustic punch are generous, there’s a nice woody warmth in the low end, and sustain comes easily.”
The FJX730SC is the more expensive of the two models.
This flagship model of the FJX series has high quality finish including a solid Sitka top.
In terms of sound, the FJX730SC uses Yamaha's ART (Acoustic Resonance Transducer) pickup system (designed to get natural, dynamic and expressive electro-acoustic tones).
Unsurprisingly from Yamaha, we have another two very reliable acoustic guitars.
In the words of Guitar and Bass Magazine’s reviewer, ‘like all Yamahas they’re as reliable as the sun rising in the morning, and excellent players to boot.’
