Description

The F335 dreadnought acoustic guitar delivers dependable tone, comfortable playability and trusted Yamaha craftsmanship at an accessible price. A Guitar Center exclusive, this instrument features a classic dreadnought body that produces clear projection and a full, rounded voice suited for practice, songwriting or casual performance. A laminated spruce top provides crisp articulation while meranti back and sides add warmth and balance to the overall sound. The slim nato neck and rosewood fingerboard create a comfortable playing surface that supports developing technique and confident chord work. Built for everyday reliability, the Yamaha F335 offers a classic acoustic foundation for beginners and experienced players alike.

Laminated Spruce Top Projects a Balanced Acoustic Voice

The Yamaha F335 uses a laminated spruce top for enhanced sound and reliable performance. Spruce is recognized for providing crisp highs with clear definition and resonant lows. The layered build makes the top stronger, helping it resist changes in humidity and weather. This construction ensures the acoustic guitar produces a consistent, open sound that works well for strumming and picking. A laminated spruce top provides reliable projection for practicing at home or playing with others.

Meranti Back and Sides Shape Warm, Steady Tone

The meranti back and sides add depth to the Yamaha acoustic's sound, shaping a warm response that complements the brightness of the spruce top. Meranti delivers steady projection and supports a low end that feels round and present. This tonewood combination creates a sound that sustains, giving each note clarity even at lower volumes. Players who want warmth and resonance will notice the contribution of these woods during group sessions or solo play.

Comfortable Nato Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard Support Playability

A slim nato neck paired with a rosewood fingerboard makes moving up and down the frets smooth and natural. Nato, a strong lightweight hardwood, gives this acoustic guitar a stable feel in the hand and holds up over time. The rosewood fingerboard provides a slightly soft, tactile response for comfortable fretting and slides. This user-friendly neck design encourages more focused practice and easier chord changes.

Solid Build Quality and Classic Appointments

The Yamaha dreadnought guitar is built to handle years of practice and travel. Laminated construction helps it withstand moisture swings. A rosewood bridge transfers string energy efficiently, increasing sustain. Die-cast tuners keep the steel strings in tune, while traditional details—like a tortoiseshell pickguard and soundhole rosette—enhance its visual appeal. Every component is selected for reliable daily use and classic appearance.

Yamaha F335: A Reliable Acoustic Foundation

Built for everyday playing, the Yamaha F335 combines a classic dreadnought voice with durable construction and comfortable feel. Its laminated spruce top, meranti back and sides, and slim nato neck work together to produce clear projection, balanced tone and an easy playing experience that supports steady improvement. Whether used for first lessons, songwriting sessions or relaxed home practice, the Yamaha F335 dreadnought acoustic guitar delivers dependable sound and playability at an approachable price.

Pick this guitar!

The Yamaha F335 is my third guitar. I was looking for an inexpensive acoustic guitar to replace my broken one. After trying so many guitars, this was definitely the one. It plays just as well as a Taylor, for less than half the price! I have the sunburst one... the color is beautiful, the sound is beautiful, and it's very comfortable. This guitar is great for everyone... if you're looking for your first or replacement guitar, this is the one!

It's good... for the price

I wanted a beater guitar that I could practice on and improve my skills, while not being so expensive or delicate that I would have a heart attack if my young kids got a hold of it. I also didn't want to have to worry about treating it delicately with regards to conditions like humidity. This all-laminate guitar was a perfect choice, and I actually chose it for these reasons over a spruce top model. The sound is ok, it's very playable, but tuning stability and intonation are not very good. This guitar is a great entry level or beater guitar, but you would be wise to ignore any reviews that say "it plays like a Taylor!" or "It sounds better than my friend's Martin!" No, people, it doesn't. Not even close. Comments like that are made by people who haven't been playing long enough for playability to matter, and/or have a tin ear. But for the price, it's a good low end guitar and a great choice for a beginner or student. Yamaha probably makes the best cheap guitars out there (< $250).

    I'd been kicking myself for not buying one of these when they were on sale during "Black Friday"; saw it on sale post Labor Day & decided to pull the trigger. Picked it up NIB from my local GC, staff was pleasant & easy to work with. Took it home...unboxed it and tuned it up. Had a surprisingly rich tone, and even more surprising; the action was quite playable right out of the box! Most pleased with the purchase, and now I have a dreadnought to fill out my guitar collection.

    Good price for a guitar like this, easy to play , has a pretty decent sound , the only problems is that mine was missing one of the strap locks , and bends are IMPOSSIBLE no matter how hard or how far you bend it just scrapes the fret and doesn't make a single difference in sound.

  • Amazing quality for the price

    Can the pick guard that comes on the Gutiar be taken off and it the overall quality good.

    Open Reply - Gear-Support
    Yes, the Yamaha F335 Acoustic Guitar in Tobacco Brown Sunburst is a very popular entry-level acoustic guitar, and your instincts are likely correct — it's common for customers to ask about removing the pickguard or question the build quality, especially when buying multiple units. Pickguard Removal Factory Pickguard: The F335 comes with a self-adhesive pickguard, not embedded or screwed on. Yes, it can be removed, but: You’ll need to gently heat the pickguard (using a hair dryer) to soften the adhesive. Use a plastic scraper or dental floss to lift it without damaging the finish. After removal, adhesive residue may remain and can be cleaned with naphtha (lighter fluid), carefully. Be aware: some discoloration may appear under the guard due to uneven UV exposure over time. Overall Quality Build: Laminated spruce top, meranti back/sides, rosewood fingerboard — solid for the price. Fit & Finish: Surprisingly good for its price point. Yamaha’s QA is reliable, and the F335 is a consistent performer. Tone: Bright and punchy, but not as resonant or warm as solid-top guitars. Playability: Comfortable neck profile, although action may need adjustment from the factory. Summary Yes, the pickguard can be removed with care. Quality is very good for a budget guitar — ideal for beginners or casual players. Not a high-end instrument, but Yamaha’s reputation for consistency shines through.

    Unfortunately we don't have single E strings for sale. You should replace the entire set.
