Better SLD-OM Solid Wood Acoustic Guitar

Enter the Ibanez V50, the beautiful guitar included in this Jumpstart Pack. The V50 is an incredible value for a name-brand guitar, featuring a spruce wood top (the same wood featured on high-end acoustic guitars) and a rosewood fretboard. It sounds great, is comfortable when playing seated or standing up, and has durable, no-slip tuning machines to ensure any wrong notes you hear are the result of undeveloped technique, not poor craftsmanship. Yes, there will definitely be some "clinkers" when you're first starting out, but don't let that get you down. Learning to do anything worthwhile takes some effort, but it doesn't feel like work if you're doing what you love. With a guitar that fits your hand like this one, how could you not love what you're doing?

Ready to Play Out of the Box!

There's no complicated setup involved with this pack--this is not one of those packages where you get a bunch of parts, a couple of screws, and an Allen wrench. Just take the guitar out of the box, and you'll be ready to go (at most, you may have to get it in tune, but that'll be a cinch with the included tuner). And when you register your guitar online with Ibanez, you'll even receive a Quick Start instructional DVD to teach you the basics and get you started playing right away. You don't have to spend a few agonizing weeks trying to play "Polly Wolly Doodle," like Bart Simpson did with his first guitar--you'll be playing songs you've known and loved for years in no time.

The Yamaha F 310 offers outstanding quality at a truly budget price. The lively sound from the spruce/meranti body has a bright, sweet resonance not unlike Yamahas renowned FGs, and real rosewood is used for the fingerboard and bridge. The handling comfort of the slightly reduced body depth and intermediate scale length will be particularly appreciated by younger players. Construction and woods The extensive dreadnought body is equipped with a laminated spruce top and consists of locally cut tonewoods on the back and sides. With the help of a clever bracing, each frequency receives a very pleasant warmth, making the F 310 particularly suitable for vocal accompaniment. At the same time, the flat neck made of locally sourced tonewood is extremely beginner-friendly. The rosewood fingerboard measures 42.9 mm at the nut and has 20 frets. Hardware and design The instrument is equipped with high-quality hardware made of urea to ensure that every note is intonated cleanly over the entire scale length of 634 mm. At the same time, chrome-plated tuners guarantee precise tuning of the 6 steel strings. To give the Yamaha F 310 acoustic guitar a traditional appearance, the body is equipped with a simple black binding that borders the individual parts of the body. Matching the binding, the top is equipped with a black pickguard and a three-ring soundhole rosette. The main features of the Yamaha F310 include:

• Bright, sweet tone, easy play and great value
• Spruce top
• Meranti back and sides
• Nato neck
• Rosewood fingerboard
• Rosewood bridge
• 96-116mm (3.78-4.57 inches) body depth
