Just wondering if anybody has or is familiar with this model. Any opinions. Thanks

be VERY careful when buying Yamahas. They can turn out to be pure crap (unless you are getting a vintage one).

some of their newer top of the line models are decent, and the vintage ones were great (dave has a good old yamaha jumbo) but their main line guitars today, they are almost pure crap. So be VERY careful when looking for yamahas

I had a Yamaha APX-9C. Nice guitar. Very comfortable to play but it lacked a bit in sound. I sold it about a month ago on ebay.

i played a LL26 some month ago and it sounded sooo good...but it's 2000 €...and a HD-35 is 2600 so i think it's no worth buying a Yamaha LL26...
