For the money you pay, workmanship is very good (as usual for Yamaha), no additional set-up was required with the action quite comfortable for me. Initially it had difficulty staying in tune and the sound was less than impressive, but this was due to the stock strings. No, I have not replaced them yet as after 3-4 days of tuning before playing, they stretched quite nicely and the guitar has been in tune for more than a week now (and played almost daily - several songs). Sound markedly improved as well - it was very tin-like out of the box, it has deepened some. It will probably further improve once I get to replacing the strings. Talking of sound - do not expect to get what you are getting out of your full-size instrument. Obviously the smaller body will produce a different result, but for the money and the flexibility to easily fit in your trunk, overhead compartment on the plane or anywhere else where space is limited (or just grab by the neck and bring it along when going for a picnic), it is great value. I am tall (188cm) and it is more difficult to move along the neck (the distance between both hends is much smaller than with full-size) when you need Eb on 6th fret for example, but it is not impossible. Still very playable once you get used to it. I cannot compare to other 3/4 sizes as I have never owned or played one. If you are looking for a guitar to take on stage - you will likely not be happy with the sound performance, but if you only need it for the occasional travel with friends or would like to strum several chords before going to bed - it is perfect. Oh yeah - gig bag is also pretty good for the price you pay. :) Price paid - GBP104 inclusive of shipping. Review: Brilliant guitar for the price - Brilliant guitar for the price. I had heard Yamaha was a good make so bought this for my 7 year old daughter. I was amazed at how good the quality of it is. I play it myself now sometimes too as I love the sound so much! Perfect for a young player or travel guitar. ## Features - Fantastic quality acoustic guitar - Gloss finish - Backand sides: satin - Meranti and spruce - Rosewood fingerboard and bridge ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00009J580 | | Back Material Type | Meranti Wood | | Back material type | Meranti Wood | | Best Sellers Rank | 21,670 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 52 in Acoustic Steel-String Guitars | | Body Material Type | Meranti | | Body material | Meranti | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Colour | Natural | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,073 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00086792581910, 00340050108043, 04960693145821 | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | S | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Included Components | paperback cover | | Instrument | Guitar | | Item Dimensions | 84.5 x 38.9 x 8.9 centimetres | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 108L x 43.2W x 16.5H centimetres | | Item Type Name | FG Junior 3/4 Size Acoustic Guitar, Natural Finish | | Item Weight | 4.94 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Yamaha | | Manufacturer Part Number | JR1 | | Material Type | Wood | | Model Name | JR1 | | Model Number | JR1 | | Neck Material Type | Wood | | Neck material type | Wood | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 21.25 | | Size | Guitar | | Sound Profile | Acoustic, Balanced | | String Material Type | Bronze | | String Nut Width | 43 Millimetres | | Top Material Type | Spruce Wood | | Top material type | Spruce Wood | | UPC | 700987275407 086792581910 792491230201 700987275391 340050108043 138366409660 686751474835 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Back material type:** Meranti Wood - **Body material:** Meranti - **Brand:** Yamaha - **Colour:** Natural - **Fretboard material type:** Rosewood - **Guitar pick-up configuration:** S - **Hand orientation:** Ambidextrous - **Neck material type:** Wood - **String material type:** Bronze - **Top material type:** Spruce Wood ## Images ![JR1 3/4 Size Acoustic Guitar & gigbag - Natural - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6106LfreysL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: has it got a truss rod for neck adjustment?** A: Yes it does! **Q: Are all the strings steel** A: Yes, all the strings are steel. **Q: Does it come with a pluckers or it has to be bought separately?** A: It came with a nice bag and is a very nice guitar, for a small, child’s instrument. It’s well set up, very playable, keeps in tune and makes a nice, light sound. It doesn’t come with either plectra or thumb picks, but they cost pennies. **Q: Is this a classical guitar, or regular acoustic guitar? Thanks** A: Regular steel string guitar, remember 3/4 of the size of a normal dreadnought style guitar. Yamaha are a great brand. Good for younger starter or as a travel guitar. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good buy with realsitic expectations *by G***N on 8 November 2011* Have had the guitar for almost a month now.

I had heard Yamaha was a good make so bought this for my 7 year old daughter. I was amazed at how good the quality of it is. I play it myself now sometimes too as I love the sound so much! Perfect for a young player or travel guitar. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great guitar, that really reliable Yamaha sound *by R***S on 22 July 2015* Great guitar, that really reliable Yamaha sound. Set up good, no awkwardness it getting use to the feel of the fretboard.....if you've played yamahas before you'll know what I mean. Not a big body so a tiny bit tinny, but you'd expect that....spruce top will get warmer the more it's played. For the money excellent value....much better value than the Martin or Taylor versions (sorry guys the name doesn't carry those for me !) one bit of feedback you need a shoulder strap on the gig bag......4 stars in view of the gig bag strap thing; but that's a personal preference. ## Frequently Bought Together - Yamaha JR1 FG Junior 3/4 Size Acoustic Guitar, Natural - D'Addario Celluloid Guitar Picks - Guitar Accessories - Guitar Picks for Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Bass Guitar - Natural Feel, Warm Tone - Assorted, Medium 0.70mm, 10 Count (Pack of 1) - Amazon Basics Adjustable Folding Guitar Stand, A-shape, Fully Assembled - For School Music Program, Concerts & Multiple Users, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/47939396-jr1-3-4-size-acoustic-guitar-and-gigbag-natural](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/47939396-jr1-3-4-size-acoustic-guitar-and-gigbag-natural) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
