(Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) treatment,” previously used on high-end L Series models (such as the LL26 and LL36). This achieves a rich tone reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years!!\u003cbr\u003e \nFurthermore, the LL16D ARE features abalone inlays on the body and rosette, along with diamond-pattern inlays for the position marks. Its appearance is reminiscent of the high-end “L36 Series”!\u003cbr\u003e \nThe bracing remains the same non-scalloped X-bracing as before, but in this redesign, the bracing has been lowered and its shape changed to a square. This ensures that the X-bracing intersects perfectly!\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck has been changed from the previous 3-piece construction to a 5-piece structure combining mahogany and rosewood, achieving greater strength and resistance to warping and twisting! Additionally, the neck is tapered by 1 mm at the 10th fret, improving playability in the higher positions! Furthermore, the rounded edges of the fingerboard provide a smooth playing experience that fits comfortably in your hand!\u003cbr\u003e \nIn the new model, the string height and string spacing have also been adjusted: the 6th string side is set slightly lower and the 1st string side slightly higher than before, and the string spacing has been widened by 0.3 mm.\u003cbr\u003e \nThis new model is equipped with a “passive pickup,” allowing you to plug it directly into an amp. (Cable sold separately.)\u003cbr\u003e \nThe pickups use the same piezo elements as those found in SRT models used in electro-acoustic guitars like the APX and CPX. They offer excellent response and ample output!\u003cbr\u003e \nA “double-action truss rod”—which was not included in the early L Series models—has been installed, providing correction for both forward and backward bowing.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nKey Specifications\u003cbr\u003e \nPickup \u0026amp; Controls    Passive Pickup\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Type    Original Jumbo Body Type\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Thickness: 100 mm–125 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTop: Solid Engelmann Spruce (A.R.E.)\u003cbr\u003e \nBack: Solid Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e \nSides: Solid rosewood\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck: Mahogany + 5-ply rosewood\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nBridge    Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nScale Length    650 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard Width (at Nut \/ Body Joint)    44 mm \/ 55 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTuners: Gold pegs (TM29G)\u003cbr\u003e \nFinish    Natural *Urethane finish, gloss\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: Light Case\u003cbr\u003e \nJAN Code: 4957812547819\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: IMN090677\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 2.23 kg\u003cbr\u003e \n* Since this item is a store display model, it may have minor scratches or other imperfections that are difficult to see in the photos.","brand":"YAMAHA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51253136687356,"sku":"09-1r9l5l0x7-0677","price":135200.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/2247\/6028\/files\/e4213e243da9497baffb3e0db8a3f167_202609117514976.jpg?v=1789103156","url":"https:\/\/intl.ishibashi.co.jp\/ja\/products\/09-1r9l5l0x7-0677","provider":"Ishibashi Music Corporation.
