Frequently Asked Questions
The FA-135 is generally a bit brighter and more focused, while the Yamaha tends to be warmer and more resonant. Both are excellent choices, but the Fender offers a slightly different tonal profile.
The walnut neck has a fairly standard 'C' shape, but the 1.69" nut width might feel a touch snug for those with very small hands; a trip to a luthier for a slight nut widening is a simple fix.
The cream-colored plastic saddle will contribute to a slightly brighter, less 'woody' tone than a bone or ebony saddle would. It’s perfectly acceptable for the price, but an upgrade down the line is a worthwhile improvement.
