Yamaha FG700S Acoustic Guitar: Buzzed, But Not At All Wasted

July 15, 2008
Yamaha FG700S

Usually, when Patrick Ogle reviews a lower-level acoustic guitar, he recommends it as a great guitar for beginners if he likes it. He must've really been impressed by the Yamaha FG700S. He upgrades the rating from a great beginner guitar to a great guitar for players who normally shred on electrics but need a go-to acoustic for that power ballad you've been secretly composing.

Now that your secret is out, your band's going to totally rag on you.
