gillyribeiro's Music Gear Setup

This is one fine axe! For a couple of hundred bucks, what can one ask for more? Stable and precise construction, top notch materials. Highly customizable! A few minor glitches regarding finish is the only thing to state against.

Fantastic guitar! Flawless right out of the box. One of (many) Yamaha's best kept secrets.

Alder body, flamed maple veneer top, maple neck, rosewood board.

Factory-loaded with a Seymour Duncan 59/JB set and Yamaha piezo pickups, this guitar covers everything you want to do. Its dual output allows to use a dual-amp setup, which, essencially, makes it easier to control the tone. Either way, you can use a single output and the blend pot to mix your magnetic and piezo signals (lessons learnt from the Yamaha's bass guitar department). You can't go wrong with the 59/JB pair. They cover the whole gamut.

The only con is the nut. It should be GraphTech. But that's very easily solved. Pair that with the stock Sperzel locking tuners, and you have an über-stable guitar.
