Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used. Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: A small portion of frets showed evidence of play wear. As such, the frets were leveled, recrowned, and polished back to a near mint state. The guitar required a full adjustment to the truss rod, nut, and bridge to be brought to a perfect level of playability. No further work was required.

From Yamaha

The vintage-inspired LS26 ARE features open-gear tuners and classic looks. Like its appearance, the sound of the LS26 ARE is open and mature, while offering incredible comfort and playability.
