YAMAHA Acoustic Guitar Flagship Model "L" Series, LS36ARE !

The L series is world-renowned as Yamaha's highest-priced acoustic guitars.

Small body, all solid specs, Ingleman spruce on the top, rosewood on the side and back.
The top material is treated with our original "A.R.E (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement)" treatment. This gives it a rich sound as if it has been played for many years!
The bracing is the same non-scalloped X-bracing as before, but in this renewal, the bracing has been lowered and the shape has been changed to a square. This allows the intersection point of the X to fit perfectly! Furthermore, by adding side braces connecting the braces on the front and back plates, the string vibration is more reliably transmitted to the back plate!
The NECK is made of mahogany and rosewood in a 5-piece construction for greater strength against warping and twisting! In addition, the fretboard is 1mm thinner at the 10th fret to improve playability in the high position! In addition, the fingerboard edge has been rounded to achieve smooth playability that fits comfortably in the hand! The back side of the head has been treated with rosewood veneer and volute processing to strengthen the head section!
The string height and pitch between strings have also been changed on the new model, with the 6th string side slightly lower and the 1st string side slightly higher than before, and the pitch between strings has been widened by 0.3mm.
The neck joint shape used on the Custom model has been adopted. The dovetail section is 4mm deeper to obtain a rich sustain!
The entire BODY is finished with a stone-powder coated lacquer finish for excellent response and dynamics! The gorgeous Avalon inlays also give the instrument a luxurious feel!
