Yamaha Country Jumbo...

Post by lovemonkeymc »

I was checking out the Yamaha Country Jumbo that Dave uses in the Stay and Satellite videos, has anyone played one before, and if so, how was it?

Fender and Yahama run paralell lives. Started out in the right direction just to make good guitars, but then mass production and greed moved them to low quality cheap guitars.

The mass produced Fenders that go for over $1000 are good. Not that the others are bad, but Vintage is obviously the best Fender you can buy!

that's a shame, it's a beautiful guitar, but if they're on similar paths with fender, then nevermind...
