As a side note.....I ended up getting 3 used Yamaha FG830's in about 2 months, because for a cheap guitar with a solid top, I liked them.
I wanted to figure out my quest for finding my "go to" strings for all my other guitars. But not surprisingly, even a cookie cutter guitar can sound A LOT different with the SAME strings compared to its siblings. My favorite is LOUDER and deeper than the other 2.
I'm still trying to make time to work on it, getting closer and loving it .
To all those guys that hate changing strings, try doing 3 at a time! Yes I have a powered string winder
So I say, go for it!
