ARE-treated top, rosewood sides and back!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nWe incorporated feedback from numerous guitarists and technicians to achieve a natural playing feel and superior playability. This was accomplished by rounding the edges of the fingerboard and carefully designing the neck taper to ensure a comfortable grip even near the body joint.\u003cbr\u003e \nIt is easy to play even in the high frets, and the transition from an electric guitar feels seamless, making it highly versatile for stage performances, recording, and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nUsing Yamaha’s proprietary analysis technology, we’ve refined the bracing system, incorporating a newly designed scalloped bracing pattern on the top and bracing specifically developed for cutaway models on the back.\u003cbr\u003e \nThis achieves a rich, full-bodied sound—despite the cutaway—and powerful resonance in the mid-to-low frequencies!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe body is a traditional cutaway Western-style design, featuring an all-solid construction with Sitka spruce for the top and rosewood for the sides and back.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe spruce top has been treated with our proprietary \"A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement)\" process. This achieves a rich tone reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years!!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe pickup system features the newly developed \"SRT2\" system, an evolution of the \"SRT (Studio Response Technology)\" system.\u003cbr\u003e \nWhile retaining the sound quality characteristics of the \"SRT\" system—which delivers an acoustic sound rich in ambience, as if recorded by a top-tier sound engineer in a studio—the system has been simplified by carefully selecting only essential functions, resulting in high operability ideal for stage performances and practice sessions.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe pickup unit features a piezo pickup with independent elements for each string, allowing players to easily create their desired sound by blending the piezo pickup’s tone with the sound produced by the “SRT2” system. Furthermore, players can choose between two different microphone types to suit their playing style or the songs they are performing.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe design eschews flashy embellishments, yet by using wood for the binding around the body and the soundhole inlay, it creates an organic, high-quality impression that conveys the warmth of wood.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe pickguard features a striking design inspired by the \"N1000\" acoustic guitar, a model beloved by top artists in the 1970s.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Shape: Traditional Western Cutaway\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Thickness: 100-118mm\u003cbr\u003e \nScale Length: 650mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTop: Solid Sitka spruce (A.R.E.)\u003cbr\u003e \nSides \u0026amp; Back: Solid Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck: Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard\/Bridge: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nNut\/Saddle: Urea Resin\u003cbr\u003e \nTuners: Die-cast chrome\u003cbr\u003e \nPreamp: SRT2 System (System71)\u003cbr\u003e \nJAN: 4957812614740\u003cbr\u003e \nS\/N: IMH120652","brand":"YAMAHA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49080564383996,"sku":"08-1r9l5mgk4-0652","price":112320.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/2247\/6028\/files\/e4213e243da9497baffb3e0db8a3f167_202605097164569.jpg?v=1778324721","url":"https:\/\/intl.ishibashi.co.jp\/ja\/products\/08-1r9l5mgk4-0652","provider":"Ishibashi Music Corporation.
