Great for acoustics
I have an Ovation which I have never been crazy about the plastic tone it has. These strings help give it a more organic tone which is wonderful.

A Steal at .99!
Compact size...big sound...and a Fender to boot...great for practice...works very well with either electric guitar or microphone...I highly recommend it!!

Best inexpensice practice amp I have used
Of the small amps I have tried this is the loudest and nicest sounding. I am very happy with it.

Do not buy this item
I have ordered this item through Amazon and felt that I was getting a great deal since it is sold elsewhere for much for...well as it appears to be there is no good deal!!! It is a rip off! Amazon has actually processed my order but the Musucian's Friend (MF) refuses to ship it at 9 advertised here; MF will happily sell it to me at 9 - the price that is posted on their own website and assume no responsibility for the price that Amazon has advertised. I have spoken to the Musician's Friend customer support and though the people seem nice they have no desire in resolving this issue and granting me the price at which I was purchasing this guitar. I will be trying Amazon's customer support and see if I get anywhere there. I expect Amazon to honor the deal. I will update the post later. For right now stay away from this item and Musician's Friend store in general...who knows what other prices are erroneous...oh and by the way the Musician's Friend has not contacted me to let me know that there is a problem with the item...I have found out through the shipment confirmation ...so now I have a bunch of guitar accessories for the guitar coming my way but NO guitar.

wonderful buy
This is my first guitar, and I'm very happy with it. I took it to a friend and he agreed that for its price, it is one of the best guitars out there. I would strongly recommend the D10S for anyone who's looking for a great intro acoustic.

BEAUTIFUL! But be advised...
This guitar is a true beauty, whether you are buying one for the first time or are an experienced guitarist! The quality is superb for the price.

BE ADVISED, though. IF your order is coming from Musician's Friend (or likely from other sources), it already comes in a beautiful HARD SHELL CASE. Amazon's listing did NOT say so much, so I ordered a case separately and now have a 2nd one to get rid of.

Happy playing!

oh man!
I'll be using this for a while. This thing is awesome, it's like an instrument on its own, in that you have to take time to really get to know it and all that it does... which is a good thing. It's pretty easy to use and clearly laid out as far as the controls go, it's pretty intuitive. But that doesnt mean you 'll learn everything in one sitting. I'll be exploring the possibilities for a long time now. I look forward to more product from Electro Harmonix.

Great little effects box -- a bit complex, though
Although all the rest of my pedals are analog, I thought I would go for this little puppy for the following reasons: 1) I was looking for a delay with tap ability to create a nice shimmering sound that would complement the other guitarist in our band. This has tap functionality and up to 3 seconds of delay time. 2) It comes with the ability to modulate your sound to some extent, creating chorus and flange-like effects. 3) It has a boat load of other functions, like loops, reverse effects, etc. 4) It's programmable. 5) I like Electro Harmonix products in general. 6) It's relatively inexpensive for what it has. 7) It has stereo-ins and outs. 8) It doesn't suck tone and signal strength. 9) It looks great.

I guess you could see this as a list of the pedals "pros." Thus far I've tested in out for only 2 hours or so, but it's lived up to my expectations. It actually has way more functionality than I wanted, but I'm looking forward to exploring and creating new sounds. For about two hundred, this is a great deal.

There are a few "cons" and they are: (1) It takes a while to learn how to use. The manual is _essential_ here. Right off the bat it tells you how to get a simple delay. I demo'd it in the store (Guitar Center) and I couldn't figure out how to get it to work. It was creating all sorts of crazy loops and I couldn't even shut the loops off! It was totally going crazy! So, if you don't know what you're doing, you shouldn't mess with this pedal. Fortunately, the manual looks very clear and although long (10 pages or more?) I think after I read through all of it I'll be clear on things. Actually, the fact that the pedal was going crazy when I demo'd it was cool, because now I know I can do all that crazy stuff (not that I'd really use that in a gig).

(2) It's only adaptor-powered, no possibility of battery use.
(3) It's digital. If you absolutely must have an analog delay, then you might check out the new MXR Carbon Copy, which is a bit cheapter, is smaller and is analog. Everyone says it's a great pedal. However, it can't do any of the other cool jazz this baby can do, and doesn't have tap tempo. Or for more money -- about three hundred -- you can get the analog Memory Man which everyone raves about. Or a Maxon delay. But the sound on this is close enough for me, and the analog delays don't have the features this one has.
(4) You can't switch presets with your foot. You have to bend down and turn the Hazarai (white) knob. You could raise the pedal to where you could reach it with your hand, but then you can't stomp on it (for the tap tempo). I'm not sure what to do with this conundrum just yet. Probably I'll only have 2-3 presets that I'll use in a gig and I'll just have to reach down and turn it when I have to?

In conclusion, I did a fair amount of research on delay pedals and demo'd a few in stores. For the money, I think this is a good pedal. It has 2 extra knobs more than a usual delay pedal (not counting the Hazarai knob) and that lets you adjust your sound to make it more analog-like or add some reverb-like effect, which is neat. It's functional, wacky if you want it to be, and it looks great!

Edit: I have now owned this pedal for about three months. It is great, and has loads of possibilities. Only thing I miss about it, is that it lacks an easy way to switch presets (you have to bend down and turn the Hazarai knob and push it, which you can try to do with your feet, but it's pretty hard!). No regrets about buying it though.

It fits...
The yellow matched perfectly with my 1960 LP re-issue. Great service from Musician's Friend, too.

Great Buy for a Beginner or Advanced Traveller
The sound quality is almost perfect. It keeps the tune for a long time. It is a great quitar and pretty good price for Yamaha. Very fast shipping. I reccommend a stand to keep this beauty safe.

Not at all Pink
My 6 year old had been asking for her first guitar for a year, and it just HAD to be pink. You'd think "Pink Burst" would be pink, but it was absolutely NOT. The guitar was practically red around the edges, fading to salmony orange through the center of the body. Yuck! It was nothing at all like the online picture, nor any other online photos of "pink burst" guitars I could find. Luckily Sam Ash was happy to take it back and replace it in time for my daughter's birthday, and we got a true "bright pink" guitar. So, I give Sam Ash 5 stars, but this "pink burst" colored guitar is a zero - pink is everything to a six year old girl!
