Thread Name: Yasuma guitars
Subject: RE: Yasuma guitars
I am the lucky owner of two Yasuma dreadnought guitars. One is a custom 500 and the other is a W130. I've nicknamed them the captain and the cowboy respectively and for good reason. The 500 is handmade, ebony finger board, unusual binding with a mix of brown/green woods. Solid spruce top with mahogany back/sides. Action is good. Sound is deep and rich. Wasnt cheap to buy too. Almost too good for me! The 130 has been through the wars and has lots marks and dings. The front has abalone edging with an abalone soundhole ring. Abalone fret markers too. Again, stunning sound.
