Review: When I got this I did an A/B comparison with my other guitar, a Yamaha A5R ARE. The A5R is a fine sounding instrument, and every musician I know who has tried it ranks it very high - much higher than its price would lead one to believe. The LS16 did not sound as good. The difference was quite noticeable, but unlike the LS16, the A5R came with Graph Tech nut and saddle. I swapped out the urea nut, saddle and plastic pins on the LS16 and replaced them with a bone nut (Graph Tech does not make a pre-slotted nut that fits) and with Graph Tech saddle and pins. What a transformation! The LS16 is a smaller body than the A5R, but with the upgraded parts it sounds almost as good. Full, rich, melodic, and with amazing sustain. Now, musicians who come to visit me try both guitars and have to switch back and forth a few times to say which one they like better. Get an LS16 and replace the plastic parts with bone or Graph Tech, and I'm sure you'll find it to be a very good sounding guitar for the price. The LS16 comes with a soft case. It may not be as protective as a hard case, but I'm not so sure about that. I much prefer the soft case for everyday use. But I would hesitate about shipping the guitar in the soft case.
Review: This is for the Yamaha L-Series LL16 12-string acoustic, which has a solid Engelmann spruce top with solid rosewood back & sides. I've been playing for 30 years. I've bought and sold countless guitars just for myself -- both six and twelve-string. This Yamaha is the best guitar I've owned; I'll never get rid of it. If a giant asteroid ever takes aim at Earth, this guitar is the only thing I'll grab before escaping to another planet. Although it's the most expensive instrument I've bought yet, other guitars that have an all-solid wood body and a torrified top cost more. I took a chance buying it without having played one because it had a "Free returns for any reason" shipping policy. I had nothing to lose by auditioning it in my own home. Luckily, I love it. When a guitar is the size of a dreadnought yet has the wide lower bout and tighter waist of a jumbo, you get the best of both worlds. The action and intonation are perfect -- barre chords are a breeze, and all the notes are in tune, even at the 20th fret. The die-cast gold tuners are beautiful, as is the abalone ring around the soundhole. Also, it's the most versatile 12-string I've owned; you can play anything on it, not just "Wish You Were Here" or "Wanted Dead or Alive." It sounds fantastic, amazing, spectacular, incredible, and uncanny -- all those corny comic-book adjectives and more!

*by S***. on 25 October 2020*

I was very worried about ordering this guitar online; let alone on Amazon. It came in a traiangular shaped box that had a semi-soft padded case. I actually like the case for church but this guitar will not be going back in the case. It deserves a hard case. I opened it up and inspected the guitar, came with strings loosely installed. It doesn't have a single flaw. It is perfect, adorned with what looks like abalone inlay, gold tuners, and the action is perfect. It came with a tool to adjust the neck, I just bought a Martin DX 12 string and I totally expected to hae to adjust it. I didn't have to. The wood grain rosewood is just awesome. Thi thing sounds amazing. Best guitar purchase ever. It isn't even close to sound compared to the Martin HPL. This thing makes the Martin sound like a toy guitar. I have a thing for the deep bass resonance with rosewood bodied guitars. I own a Taylor 214CE Rosewood and it used to be the nicest guitar I've ever had until this one. I've always wanted an HD-28 and although I think they are great guitars still, I'm gonna save some money and buy the 6 string version of this. It's a beautiful sounding guitar with sustain for days. Great for strumming and fingerpicking. Oh I also plugged it into my Boes L1 Compact and it sound just as good throught that thing. I absolutely love it!
