YAMAHA / LS16 ARE Natural [11]

Yamaha's flagship acoustic guitar series, the "L" Series, has been redesigned!!

The L Series, renowned worldwide as Yamaha's pinnacle acoustic guitars.
Even after 40 years since its launch, the "L" continues to be cherished by countless artists as an iconic instrument. What defines its enduring value?
It is simply because it has consistently delivered the sound and playability demanded by each era at the highest level.
It ushered in an era for acoustic guitars in Japan, evolving with the times, and consistently responding to the player's vision.
That is the L Series.

Featuring a small body and all-solid construction, it employs Engelmann spruce for the top and rosewood for the sides and back.
The top wood features the proprietary "A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance
Enhancement) treatment, previously reserved for higher-end L Series models like the LL26 and LL36. This achieves a rich, well-played-in sound!!
The bracing remains the traditional non-scalloped X-bracing, but this renewal lowers the bracing and changes its shape to a square profile. This ensures the X's intersection point fits perfectly!

The NECK has been changed from the previous 3-piece construction to a 5-piece structure of mahogany and rosewood, achieving greater strength against warping and twisting! Furthermore,
to improve playability in the higher positions! Furthermore, the fretboard edges are rounded, delivering a smooth playing experience that fits comfortably in your hands
!
The new model also features modified string height and string spacing. The 6th string side is slightly lower than before, while the 1st string side is slightly higher. Furthermore, the string spacing has been widened by 0.3mm.
This NEW model features a "passive pickup," allowing direct connection to an amplifier. (Cable sold separately)
The pickups use the same piezo elements as the SRT found in electro-acoustic models like the APX and CPX. They offer excellent response and ample output!
A "double-action truss rod" has been incorporated, a feature absent in the initial L series, allowing adjustment for both neck bow and tailpiece bow.
