I have several acoustic guitars. This is one of my favorites for the simple reason that the string action is excellent for a stock inexpensive guitar.  This is an great guitar for the beginning player as the strings are set low on the neck. There is no difficulty in fretting the strings. The Yamaha FG JR1 3/4 size acoustic guitar has a nice feel to it when holding it in my lap. It is very lightweight and has a beautiful finish. It is a good buy and sells currently at the local Guitar Center with/bag at the price offered via Amazon. I give this little guitar 5 Stars.
