Yamaha LL6 ARE (Is it a good guitar?)

This is not a professional review. Just me playing around on my new guitar.

A general time line of whats going on.....

3:10 i start off with an open G
4:10 an open chord song
4:49 i play an A minor (my favorite chord)
5:05 i play some finger picking in the key of A minor
5:59 i play a loud chord, that might startle your ears
6:20 i attempt to play some generic power chords
7:14 i show off the guitars intonation
7:54 i accidentally figure out a Green Day song by playing random power chords
8:50 i try and play some generic jazzy type chords
12:19 Capo on 3rd fret, strumming some open chords
13:10 i play the exact same open chords, but this time finger picked
14:09 I play an A minor again, with capo on 3rd fret
15:20 i move the capo to the 2nd fret and play generic chords
16:20 I remove the capo....Play a little bit of Mouth Full Of Cavities
17:29 i doodle around on some chords that remind me of St. Andrew's Fall
17:55 i ponder if this is a good guitar for the price, and give my impressions
19:35 i end with a Mother Love Bone song

If you have any topics you'd like to see covered, leave a comment. I like making review videos on pretty much anything. It could be a concept, idea, something going on in the news, or even a tech product.

Now the good news is that since i’m a very small channel, i wont be making too many Tech Reviews, because for the most part, giant multi million dollar companies usually don’t send products out for review to channels that have under 100 subscribers.

Now why is this good? Well i can focus on making more abstract and interesting videos, based on whatever i find fascinating about the world we live in. Let me tell ya, we live on a very wild and dynamic planet, so there will always be plenty to talk about. ==========================

Fabulous video! Just bought this amazing sounding guitar today and searched youtube to see any reviews, & your video confirmed to me my choice was a good one! Now I need some practice!

Very refreshing review, thank you for that and I really appreciate you getting up so early in the morning to share! Lovely stuff..

[larrykenney]

About time somebody mentions the kind of pick they use because it makes a big difference on the sound, thank you, Chum.

Wow! I jumped in to catch a review of the LL6, and found Tony. Stand up routine meets guitar review. Thanks! Made my day.

I absolutely loved this review . You could not be any more laid back and be awake but it kept my interest . Nice playing ! I bought one of these and I`m really impressed with it A great all around guitar that can hold it`s own when playing alongside a Gibson or Martin (not saying it is as good as a D28 or whatever just that it can get in the mix nicely) Great job ! Thanks

Ive owed the Yamaha LS6 for the last three years now and I absolutely love it, same specs as the LL6 but slightly smaller, its so good . Cost me just over 500 quid and sounds better than guitars twice the price.

I have one of these and love it. Its become my main workhorse acoustic. I have to admit that the string spacing took some getting used to. My other acoustics are a 60s Gibson Southern Jumbo and a Taylor academy 12. The strings on this feel significantly spaced further apart. I found the tone on these to be surprisingly bright, not in a bad way, I was just expecting less clarity and more boom. These are very articulate.

This was Fantastic! Just ignored my two kids while watching this riveting demo. After reading reviews and a few videos, You’ve convinced me to buy this guitar during quarantine. Thank you for this video :)

I have a LL6 and it sounds beautiful. Rich sound, smooth playability and it has a lot of bass in my opinion as its body seems like a jumbo one but smaller. Also, it has the ARE systems which means that the woods have been treated to looks like a 10 years old guitar. Also, Yamaha is guaranteed of quality. One last thing, I use Daddario strings on it. Cheers!

I actually just recently found this out about using different picks. And I've been playing for 30 years. I've been buying the same picks since I first started playing. I never experimented with other picks because I liked what I was using. My neice bought me some picks for Christmas and they were different picks. I never knew my guitar would sound different. Now I have a bunch of different gauge picks. 😆

[danielbell]

Hahaha “I’ve been playing since I was like 14, but I only know like 10 songs to play...” the struggle is real!

[abemillettmusic]

Great review…. Was gonna buy a more expensive guitar. You make a great point. It’s a versatile guitar. It’s like $1500 cheaper than the guitar I was gonna buy. Good stuff.

*My MAIN guitar along with my GUILDS* ❤
This Yamaha is great for street musicians and songwriters!
Very clever design and wonderful sounding and build guitar.
I do covers on my channel with the Yamaha LS TA

Cheers friends and PLAY ON 💥

Dude thanks for the review, candor, humor AND nice playing...Great! (I also own an L series Yamaha.. LL16)

[colepalmer]

Lmao can we just appreciate that intro for a sec


"Well folks, you know what it's like, you're living your life. You know, it's a struggle out there. A lot of poverty, destruction I guess. But the question that we've all been thinking about is... what is the best guitar you can buy for the money? Cause that's really the question right?"

[JuliusFawcett]

I bought this as my first guitar, it sounds so good! Nice demo 💪

[darius.burdeti]

I have a question, if you can help me, The LL6 it's much bigger than a dreadnought guitar? Do you think he would fit in a gigbag with dreadnought size? Thank you.

[andrewguttry]

Thank you! At last a reviewer tells us what picks he is using; well done. I own both the LL6ARE and LL16ARE. Excellent guitars both.

[keithskelton]
