Very happy with the guitar. Feels full of quality and love the tube pickup. Sounds very warm and natural.
I live in Australia and had this guitar shipped from the US. Arrived in gemreat condition thanks to the hard case that came with it.

Washburn WD10 Series WD10SCE Acoustic Electric Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

I recently picked this up for a cheaper guitar to take around. I'm very pleased with it and would recommend for a beginner, or anyone that needs a great playing guitar under $300 dollars. You are not going to find another guitar with the action, plus a cheap pickup for $250. IMHO, this is a great deal.
Plus:
Great Action/Playability
Comes with a cheap Fishman Pickup
I think Washburn's have a good even tone (high's/low's are generally balanced IMO).
Nice Look/sound for price range.
Minus:
This isn't a solid wood guitar. New guitars under $600 are mostly laminate sides and back to cut down on costs.
Like all guitars in this price range, there are plastic parts (nut, binding, pegs, etc.). To be expected.
Notes: Doesn't come with 2 pins for Guitar strap. This just means you have to get a strap that goes to head stock. Just a difference.

Takamine GS330S Acoustic Guitar Review

I bought this guitar for my wife last Christmas. It's priced a little higher than the low-end guitars, but the sound and feel of it really justify the price.
I myself play the guitar and have some experience with the feel and sound of a guitar. This particular one is really smooth, easy on the fingers, and the sound is excellent. As far as tuning the guitar, it definitely tunes very well and very easily.
I highly recommend this guitar - the price may be a little steep, but if you see it on sale anywhere, go for it.

The Takamine GS330S is their most affordable solid-top dreadnought acoustic. The GS330S features a solid cedar top, a departure from the familiar spruce, and delivers a distinctive tone all its own. If you want a high-quality acoustic that stands apart from the crowd, this is a great way to go. Other features include nato back & sides, and chrome tuners. The GS330S is made to Takamine's strict specifications, and represents exceptionally good value.

Yamaha CG192C Cedar Top Classical Guitar Review

Yamaha CG192C Cedar Top Classical Guitar

Yamaha builds a guitar that is efficient and easy to play. The construction is simple and clean. Now, that's sufficient for their entry level guitars (I picked up a Yamaha F335 Acoustic Guitar, Natural for less than one Ben Franklin - see my review), however, at 5x that amount, that just doesn't cut it anymore. This guitar has zero character. It hits all the notes without any issues, but the sound it produces can only be described as plain vanilla. For the beginning student that may be OK, but why spend the extra $ for this model when it sounds and plays pretty much the same as its lesser brethren? The better grade of materials used in this do not seem to translate into better sound quality - and isn't that why one would drop the extra $ in the first place?
If you want a classical guitar that hands-down produces a rich, wonderful tone that has character, I'm, afraid you'll have to drop some serious $ on a José Ramírez. At this price point, I'd shop around to try to find something that approaches the Ramírez sound - a tall order, for sure.
P.S. Don't bother with Takamine, either. I played one that was 2x the price of this Yamaha and, while it did have a better feel and produce a slightly better tone, the Japanese guitars just don't capture that wonderful Spanish guitar sound.

i searched for over 2 weeks for an entry level classical guitar with a solid wood top at a decent price. it has great sound and projection. the finish is beautiful. it comes with d'Addario pro-arte classical guitar strings. nice wide neck so my fat fingers only touch one string at a time. looks even better than all the pictures you see online.
