If you've read many of my op's you've probably figured out I'm a musical type of person, but not the type that jingles whilst walking.
For years I have enjoyed playing rhythm guitar both privately and on the road but never more so than on my Yamaha 12String. It's a lovely full size instrument that creates amazing volume even without an amp, and by far outdoes all the other acoustics I have had or used in the past, and I have had some nice ones.
The overall design is pretty standard at first glance, but if you look a little closer, or better yet actually try one you can appreciate the really low fretting that gives a very smooth action, and in the case of my one having dreadnought fretting it's even smoother.
The head of the guitar is well shaped also, and fitted out with chrome keys that really set of the rose wood neck ...
Advantages: Beautiful sound, playability and look Disadvantages: Disadvantages?!
So I'm sat here in my room at my halls of residence playing on my acousticelectricguitar, when it hit me..."could I review this on Ciao?"...yes, I could!!
Applause Guitars are the younger brother of guitar manufacturers Ovation, who have been making trustworthy guitars for over 30 years now, and here have used this experience to make a guitar that doesn't sound like a guitar that is as cheap as this, but is a high-quality product.

Advantages: Superior tone, easy to play Disadvantages: Expensive
I wish I was the proud possessor of a Taylor 810 guitar! The one I'm writing about belongs to a friend of mine, and he's very protective of it, will let very few people touch it (I appear to be one of the favoured few!)
The guitar itself is made of Indian rosewood back and sides, with a Sitka spruce top, with distinctive Taylor ebony bridge and scratchplate. The neck is tropical American mahogany, the fingerboard is also ebony. The soundhole is decorated with Abalone,however this is not excessive. Machine heads are gold plated for a touch of luxury.
As much care has been taken on the inside of this guitar as on the outside, and the finish is smooth, even on those hard-to-reach corners inside the guitar.
This particular guitar does not have a fitted pickup, however I use an ebony Mimesis acoustic pickup which is excellent ...
