Cow bone is extremely hard, enabling more effective sound transmission from the strings to the neck and body.\u003cbr\u003e \nInstalling and adjusting a cowbone nut requires a high level of technical skill; each guitar is carefully crafted one by one in Japan by skilled guitar craftsmen.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n\u0026lt;Proprietary Scalloped Bracing\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003e \nAiming to achieve an ideal, warm tone, we have repeatedly refined this design by combining virtual prototyping using the latest acoustic analysis simulation technology with physical prototypes crafted from wood.\u003cbr\u003e \nCompared to the scalloped bracing used in the FG\/FS#800 series, we have optimized this design to match the characteristics of the wood itself and the specific models of the FG and FS series, achieving even richer low-frequency response.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n\u0026lt;A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) Treatment\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003e \nThe top is treated with Yamaha’s proprietary Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) process.\u003cbr\u003e \nBy precisely controlling temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, we induce changes in the wood over a short period that mimic the natural aging process occurring over many years after the wood is sawn. This enhances sound transmission and vibration efficiency, promoting the extension of mid-to-low frequencies while increasing the attack of high frequencies and accelerating their decay.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe A.R.E. treatment produces a well-balanced, mature, and warm sound with minimal harsh overtones, creating a tone reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years.\u003cbr\u003e \nIncluded Accessories: Hard case, wrench\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nProduct Specifications\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Type: FS Concert Style\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Length: 497 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nMaximum body width: 380 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Thickness: 90–110 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nScale Length: 634 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nOverall Length: 1022 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard width at nut\/body joint: 44 mm \/ 55 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTop: Solid Sitka spruce, A.R.E.\u003cbr\u003e \nBracing pattern: Scalloped bracing\u003cbr\u003e \nBack: Solid mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nSides: Solid mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck: African mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nBridge: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nBridge saddle: Cow bone\u003cbr\u003e \nTuners: Kluson open-gear (Y1D)\u003cbr\u003e \nNut: Cow Bone\u003cbr\u003e \nFinish: Body: Gloss \/ Neck: Satin\u003cbr\u003e \nPickup System: None\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: Hex wrench, hard case\u003cbr\u003e \nJAN: 4957812702706\u003cbr\u003e \nS\/N: IMJ203A","brand":"YAMAHA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49263171207420,"sku":"08-1r9l5ocfm-203a","price":195700.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/2247\/6028\/files\/e4213e243da9497baffb3e0db8a3f167_202607097339155.jpg?v=1783588019","url":"https:\/\/intl.ishibashi.co.jp\/zh\/products\/08-1r9l5ocfm-203a","provider":"Ishibashi Music Corporation.
