Lol, so that's a guitalele, I thought it was something like the taylor's baby guitar after seeing it in Sg. wang the other day, mind giving a short review? I was planning to get one as a portable guitar to carry around? thanks ( I was planning to get the taylor's baby, but the price... meh.)

Keep in mind that yamaha Guitalele tuning is AECGDA (high to low) which is same as you capo 5th fret of your standard guitar. The treble strings are nylon, while the bass strings are steel. The fretboard width is around the same as acoustic guitar fretboard width. Guitalele is a quarter size guitar, therefore the scale is smaller, fret to fret distance is closer. Was impressed by the sound, considered loud and bright for such a small guitar.

On the right side of the pic is my guitalele, left side is my standard size classical guitar.

Oh, but can I tune it back to the standard EADGBE tuning?

Btw, my classical guitar strings snapped, was playing too aggressive with it (percussion and aggressive strumming laugh.gif I know, stupid me), any good strings recommendation?
