Yamaha Ntx1200r Acoustic-Electric Classical Guitar Natural $999.99 Yamaha's NTX1200R is one handsome acoustic guitar designed to offer a feel and playability closer to that of a steel-stringed acoustic. This professional-level instrument is the perfect choice for adding the warmth of nylon-string acoustic tone to your music.

This Yamaha guitar is perfect for adding nylon string tone to a wide range of musical styles from Latin to Jazz, Pop to Rock. Built on the thinline classical platform, Yamaha's NTX1200R acoustic-electric classical guitar features a cutaway, for comfort when playing in the higher register fret positions. This NTX starts with a solid Sitka spruce top, for warm, balanced tone. The neck features African mahogany, while the back and sides are solid rosewood, giving clear, pronounced tone, able to rise over and through the rest of the band. Rosewood is a tropical hardwood that has long been the material of choice for acoustic guitar sides and backs. Harder and heavier than maple, it provides firm support for the guitar's resonating top and delivers rich, well-balanced overtones. Its warm quality is perfect for nylon string tone. It also has a good balance of fundamental overtones for high register soloing.The Yamaha NTX1200R also features the A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement), an original wood reforming technology developed by Yamaha. Through precise control of temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, the molecular properties of the wood can be manipulated into a more acoustically ideal condition, similar to the molecular characteristics of woods in instruments that have been played for years. In NX Series guitars, this treatment results in a sound close to that of a vintage guitar that has been played for years. The NTX1200R acoustic-electric guitar produces a sharper tone while simultaneously controlling dissonance in the high range. Instruments that have undergone this process have received high marks from a great number of musicians. Their evaluations are nearly identical to those for guitars that have been played for years, and their comments often include terms such as "well settled," "mature," "warm," "excellent resonance," and "clear."Yamaha's ART (Acoustic Resonance Transducer) pickup system is purpose designed to offer the most natural, dynamic and expressive electro-acoustic sound on the market. Proprietary multi-layer contact sensors perfectly combine ultra-wide dynamic range with outstanding feedback rejection for the most accurate and natural performance sound. The NTX1200R uses a 2-way system with contact pickups mounted on the treble and bass sides of the guitar bridge. To reduce unwanted feedback caused by vibration the NX Series contact pickup utilizes an additional multilayer damper to ensure the tone is captured in its purest form. C

Want to learn how to play the guitar, what's the easiest way?

I need to know what the easiest way to learn how to play the guitar would be. I have never played one before but have played a trumpet (many years back), I don't know if that makes a difference though. I don't have a good music center near me to teach me but I could go to one if necessary. My question is whether a guitar like the Yamaha EZ-AG (self teaching guitar) would do fine to teach the basics until I get pretty good at it or would I be better getting a standard acoustic and trying to find time to get to lessons? This is mainly focus on the yamaha, does anyone have any experience with it? Does it work well for teaching a beginner the basics?

The EZ-AZ is just a fancy gadget that shows you where to put your fingers. It doesn't resemble to a real guitar in any way. Your fingers won't gain any strength or feel. You won't become familiar with many expression techniques like bending or sliding. You will just end up playing with a new toy. My advice is this:
Buy a really cheap acoustic or classical guitar(no more than $200). My guess is that you are interested in playing your favorite songs and maybe a little later learning some basic soloing techniques. To do that you don't need no music center! In fact you may be better off without it (they usually take it very slowly and consume your money in no-time). What to do then? Find a cheap ($50 tops) on-line course or DVD course and teach your self. In most cases this will do the trick. That's more than i had when i started out 11 years ago. You can find some reliable recommendations at www.GuitarMethodReviews.info. Many friends of mine started there and it went pretty well for them.
Hope this was helpfull. Good luck whatever you choose to do...
