Yamaha EG-112C

Strat style, 22 Frets, Maple neck, Rosewood Fretboard, Basswood body.
3 Pickups... s/s/h... 5 position switch... tone and volume knobs.
Standard Strat copy with nothing fancy. It came with a cheap practice amp and cable.

I play mostly rock/metal, but I do a little finger picking too. This guitar is ok for both. I bought it as a beater guitar, to keep in the truck, when I'm out on the road... (can't have my jackson, bouncing around inside a truck all day) It's pretty well constructed. I was suprised. The pickups aren't that good, but the humbucker is "good enough". I can get some good pings and squeals out of it when I use a little distortion and compression. Over all, I like this guitar. It's worth the $109 I paid for it.

This guitar was playable right out of the box. I checked the intonation, and it was right on. The strings are a slightly higher than 1/8th inch at the 22nd fret. No buzzing. It plays fine, but I might lower the action a little. I did raise the pickups some, but there are flaws or defects that I can see. This is a very good cheap guitar. I like it better than the squiers that I've tried.

You could gig with it, with better pickups. It's not going to stand up to heavy abuse.. but for the price, it's pretty sturdy. I'd rather have it than a squier. The finish looks great. Shiny black.

Been playing about 9 years. I also have a jackson pro series, and a few different amps. ..and an old acoustic, for fingerpicking.
If this yamaha was ever lost or stolen, I'd buy it again for the same price.... maybe a few bucks more. I compared it to other cheap guitars that I've played. I think it beats the heck out of the squiers. It won't hold up against an american made fender though.
I bought this guitar as a beater, so I won't have to expose my other electric guitar to life in a semi truck. I expected it to be a piece of junk, but I was pleasantly suprised.

EG-112C
Black Finish, black everything
It is bery boring looking
Gig Bag, strap, cable, amp, whammy bar, and tools

My style is metal to Beatles, Mudvayne to RHCP, this guitar can't hold up that well. The sound is twangy, i got new strings and it still sounds twangy. EXPENSIVE STRINGS. Don't waste your money.

The guitar was constructed fairly well. I will give them that, but it is a very boring guitar. I am a fan of the Les Paul Body, so the strat-style isn't me. The paint is reliable. The pickups are terribly adjusted, they fall out of place alot.

IVE ONLY HAD THE GUITAR FOR 6 MONTHS, AND THE PICKUPS ARE ALREADY WORN OUT. I WOULD NEVER USE THIS GUITAR IN A GIG, WITH OUR WITHOUT A BACKUP, THIS GUITAR IS A BACKUP TO A BACKUP TO A BACKUP. I CAN'T DEPEND ON IT.

BAD

I believe 2001 was its manufacture date, unsure, dont care
it has a 22 fret rosewood fingerboard with a maple neck, very strat like feel. black body that contours not quiet a fat strat, but much alike in any way you think. it has two single coils that are in my opinion underdriven, and a cheap humbucker in the bridge, all in all, a good sounding guitar. it has 1 tone and 1 volume control wich are kinda cheap, along w/ the 5 way selector switch, i have had it 1 year w/ no problems, so they work.

I bought this guitar new and it came w/ the extras , GA-10 amp, a little practice amp that rocks, a string winder, a quick tune automatic guitar/bass tuner, 3 pics, a gig bag, an extra pair of strings to throw away, a whammy bar, hex wrench, and a cheasy guitar book for anyone who knows they will quit playing when they read it

I like jazz, blues and rock, it works great with all, my dislikes are the same w/ any guitar under 3 hundred dollars, strap, strap pegs, tuneres, humbuckers, nut....but it is my practice guitar, and that is too much money to spend on practice away from practice, so get strap locks, and a better strap. ALSO, the strings as i said above are their to throw out, this guitar sounded twangy when i bought it, not much of a strat sound from a strat style, this will cost 6 dollars to fix. Go get yourself some fender bullets and call it a day

Great action, is about 1/8 inch away from fretsat the bridge, and even less at the stock, but set it up to the way you like it, Definatly worth the 200 youll spend on it, looks like a million dollars, enjoy it, file the nut down on the high e string, when you play hard, it slips off the nut, easy enough to fix. It is most likly made out of basswood or something of thsat nature

i have used it live, no one said it sounds shitty so i use it for my back up when my fender isnt available to back my gibson, i used it for a whole show and no problems, so it is worthy of your time, just because a 15 year old killed his guitar, doesnt mean you will, buy this

well, unless its waterlogged or missing wires go to your local shop for any problems, they will fix it faster than yamaha

i have been playing 9 years and are going to to play a lot in the future, it wont replase my 335 or my telecaster, but it will be used.
if it were stoling i would cut the culprets balls off and feed them to rosie odonnell, just because of the theif being selfish, and rosie wants more balls than sylvester stalone

Made in 1999 in Indeonesia
22 Frets
Solid Laminated Top
1 Vol, 1 Tone(added a second Tone nob)and a 5 way selector switch
Chrome hardware, plastic nut, well equiped even before the teardown
s/s/h desighn, alright sounding out of the box, not loud enough without the humbucker, I recomend an upgrade
YAMAHA EG 112C
Pickups are a foodstamp brand
active although it was passive
Bass wood body, be careful not to drop it, smash it, so on so on, stays sounding right if you do, but can as ive read dent easy
neck- standard 60's style fender reproduced shape, maple w/ rosewood finger bourd
bridge is a string through body, looks great and is the only peice of chrome i didnt replace
tuners, non locking p.o.s., but for a combo for 179.99, cant go wrong, get new ones!!!!
narrow neck, not bad plays very good
This came with a gig bag, A ballsy 7 watt practice amp, The Yamaha GA-10, sounds great!!!3 picks, a guitar learning book, an electric tuner (actually works) and a nifty string winder that broke upon the first string up, OOPS!!!Not quite a fat strat, The look says it, but this model is much more refined, more of a pretty guitar if you asked me

heres the problems,tuning pegs, nut, and humbucker, these are a easy fix, as with most guitars under five hundred, i suggest if your gonna replace the humbucker, you might as well replace the other pickups, as i did! The guitar itself has a great tone, so dont go crazy and break the bank for the most expensive, go with what you know, or prefer. I just use a WHA pedal and it sounds kick ass
before i changed the pickups it wasnt sheilded all that great, I found this is the reason for the hum next to other electrionics, i recomend shielding your guitar upon your first upgrade, I use this peice w/ a Fender half Stack, and the GA-10 amp it came with...
Sound is kick ass

Finish of this guitar is a deep black like car finish, if you have seen a pair of Yamaha towers, you will recognise this finish. A white pick gaurd w/ a maple neck and rosewood finger board, no guitar under $1000.00 that i have owned has looked this good. fit is decent, the replacement of standard fat strat hook-up on the front was moved to the side, the fingering needed little tweaking as with all my guitars, very good feel, what can i say, i compare the action to an actual strat, Yamaha, well done

Define live playing, if it withstands practice, it will withstand live playing. I play jazzy riffs and this guitar actually gives me a better tone than ANY Fender, so when I play live, this is part of my arsenol...And although I HAVENT HAD TO BACK IT UP YET,IN THE 8 MONTHS, IF YOU PLAY A SHOW WITHOUT A BACK UP, YOU DESERVE TO BE SHOT!!!!!

I have only called them once for a remote replacement, your better off finding a local dealer

For the price you will do better than that shitty squire or peavy , wich are more expensive and don't come with an amp to practice with
for price, action, fit and reliability, i will give it a ten, as long as you are not triing to kill it to get that Bigger more expensive guitar, this guitar will respect you

the features are pretty good except for the strap pegs ive droped this guitar twice the strap came off. it came with an amp,strap,extra strings,picks,and a gig bag this is kinda my first guitar though ive played a couple other guitars
the humbucker pickup sucks i would like to get that replaced though the single coils are pretty good.
it easily gets out of tune so i pretty much have to tune it once every 2 days

the sound is pretty good the sound is bright and full bt its pretty quiet but it can be very loud i played it on a rocktron rampage R20 and i got pretty good sound very bright it gets good treble

the finish is great its bright red the wood on the neck looks great
but it did have fret buzz

its very dependible ive droped this thing a thousand times and it dosent even scratch the tuning dosent change when droped althogh there is a buzz
the strap buttons are crap my strap comes off once in a while
the finish is very good it shines beautifully like i just got it

well i love my guitar ive compared it to a gibson epiphone and a J. reynolds well i lke the J. reynolds better it has better sound
well its kind of heavy and i hate that but this one is a very good beginers guitar or a good guitar for clumsy people like me who drop things easily though i wouldnt buy another one
