Sandro Boscaro replied to Larry Carr's discussion Yamaha LS 6 vs LL 6"I never tried a LS-6, but I owned a LL-6. Very nice guitar, lot of basses and a great sustain.
Very good craftmanship, no glue, no flaws. Side and bottom were laminated rosewood, but very nice to see.
I don't think it was smaller than a Martin…"

Larry Carr replied to Larry Carr's discussion Yamaha LS 6 vs LL 6"Got the ll6, tinted. Well built, maybe a bit overbuilt. Sounds very nice, however.
Plays well. I'm Happy so far."
