{"product_id":"10-1r9l5l0vi-0012","title":"[SN IMJ240012] YAMAHA \/ LS16 ARE Natural [10]","description":"The LS16: Small Body, All-Solid Construction!\u003cbr\u003e \nThe L Series is renowned worldwide as Yamaha’s premier acoustic guitar.\u003cbr\u003e \nEven 40 years after its release, the “L” continues to be cherished by countless artists as a legendary instrument. What is the secret to its enduring value? It is simply that it has consistently delivered the sound and playability demanded by each era at the highest level. It ushered in a new era of acoustic guitars in Japan, has continued to evolve with the times, and has always responded to the needs of its players. That is the L Series.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nFeaturing a small body and an all-solid construction, it features Englemann spruce for the top and rosewood for the sides and back.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe top wood has been treated with our proprietary “A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement)” process, 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 \nThe bracing remains non-scalloped X-bracing, as in previous models, but for this renewal, the bracing has been lowered and the shape changed to a square design. This ensures the X-bracing intersects perfectly!\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck has been changed from the traditional 3-piece construction to a 5-piece structure combining mahogany and rosewood, providing greater strength against warping and twisting! Additionally, the neck is tapered by 1mm at the 10th fret, improving playability in the higher positions! Furthermore, the rounded edge of the fingerboard ensures a smooth playing feel that fits comfortably in the hand!\u003cbr\u003e \nIn the new model, the string action and string spacing have also been adjusted: the 6th string is set slightly lower and the 1st string slightly higher than before, and the string spacing has been widened by 0.3mm.\u003cbr\u003e \nThis new model is equipped with a \"passive pickup,\" allowing you to connect it directly to an amplifier. (Please purchase a cable 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—has been installed, providing a structure that corrects both forward and backward bowing.\u003cbr\u003e \nIncluded: Gig case\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: IMJ240012\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nPickup \u0026amp; Controls: Passive pickup\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Type: Small Body\u003cbr\u003e \nBody depth: 100mm–120mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTop: Solid Engelmann Spruce (A.R.E.)\u003cbr\u003e \nBack: Solid Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e \nSides: Solid Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck: Mahogany + Rosewood 5-ply\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nBridge: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nScale length: 650mm\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard width at nut\/body joint: 44mm\/55mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTuners: Gold pegs (TM29G)\u003cbr\u003e \nFinish: Natural, urethane finish, gloss\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* This is a one-of-a-kind item currently listed simultaneously on multiple platforms, including our in-store display.
