    40 years playing Yamaha acoustics.  Very consistent, great sounds and generally very well made at all price points.

    Wow! The subtle figuring on the 26 is lovely. They sound great too. Is that just a mic?
    Yep the 26 has a lovely top, I picked the nicest one (both sound and looks) that they had in Yamaha Wardour St at the time. Having said that, whoever got that lovely top LS6 from Peach got something equally as good looking. 

    Yes it’s just a mic on the 6 for the sound demo. One of those clip on SE mics. It’s a bit of a carbuncle but it works well enough. 

    I did a “blindfold” test of each one, and there’s not much to pick between them considering the price difference. The 6 is definitely louder and brighter, although that could just be different type and age strings. Need to get the 26 restrung with a new set of Elixirs to be sure. But if I had to recommend something, the 6 is very much in the same league of the 26 for a lot less money, and it should only get better with time.

    If the recording is you playing, that's very well done.

    Nice example of alternating thumb.

    :)
