Overview
Yamaha designed the Storia line to live out on a stand at home, and this one pairs a mahogany top with a chocolate brown gloss finish and colorful inlay. A slim neck with rolled fingerboard edges and low action make it comfortable.
Comfort features like rolled edges and an accommodating body make it easy to grab for short sessions. The mahogany top produces an earthy midrange that suits singing along. Players who want bright, crisp highs may prefer a spruce top.
Who it's for
Beginners, returning players and anyone who leaves a guitar out in the living room get comfort and style. Bluegrass flatpickers or those chasing sparkle should look at spruce topped models.
Pros and cons
- Mahogany top for warm mids
- Rolled fingerboard edges
- Comfortable string height
- Distinctive finish and inlay
- Scale length unit not given
- Case not listed
- Less treble sparkle than spruce
Performance notes
A mahogany top is denser than spruce, which tilts the tone toward the midrange and softens attack. Low string height and rolled fingerboard edges reduce effort for fretting hands.
