In terms of the guitar settling down to it's new environment etc. It has been incredibly stable.It is currently sitting beside the couch along with an adirondack / braz Sobell and a sitka / braz Northwood, I would hate to try to decide between the 3 but the LJ is getting a lot of playing time.
As an aside, I just noticed that the sound bar /sub woofer that came as a freebie with the guitar has just won an award for Yamaha this weekend. It's a case of "if Carlsberg did guitar shop deals........etc"

With inflation having done what it has done over the past 2+ years this is in some ways an even better deal than before!
Edit: it's gone! Did one of you lot snag it?

silver lining to the unsuccessful LJ36 purchase
I found Yamaha sizes a bit tricky to properly follow. My CSF is tiny (Martin 0 size).
The FS and LS bodies have the same size top surface, with the LS being 10mm deeper. According to my hack-o-matic spreadsheet, the box volume of the LS is not so much smaller than my old Sigma J45.
it’s a legitimately superb guitar and having handled a few from different ‘eras’ in this family, they have slight and interesting variations in build.
