YAMAHA / LL16D ARE Natural [11]

The LL16D ARE dressed in gorgeous ornamentation!

The L series is world-renowned as Yamaha's highest-class acoustic guitars.
Even after 40 years since its release, the "L" continues to be used by many artists as a masterpiece. The L series brought an era of acoustic guitars to Japan and continues to evolve with the times, always responding to the wishes of the players. That is the L Series.

In March 2014, the L Series was renewed for the first time in 10 years!
The LL16 was reborn as the LL16 ARE, and this model is a higher version of the LL16 ARE.
Original jumbo BODY, all solid specs, Ingleman spruce on the TOP and rosewood on the SIDE/BACK.
The top material is treated with our original "A.R.E (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement)" treatment, which has been used on the top models of the L series (LL26, LL36, etc.). This gives the instrument a rich sound as if it has been played for many years!
Furthermore, the LL16D ARE features Avalon inlays on the body and rosette, and diamond design inlays on the position marks. The look is reminiscent of the higher grade "L36 Series"!
The bracing is the same as before with non-scalloped X bracing, but in this renewal, the bracing has been lowered and the shape has been changed to a square. This allows the X intersection points to fit perfectly!
The NECK has been changed from a conventional 3-piece to a 5-piece mahogany and rosewood construction, which is stronger and more resistant to warping and twisting! In addition, the 10th fret has been thinned by 1mm 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!
In the new model, the string height and pitch between strings have also been changed, 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.
This new model is equipped with a "passive pickup" and can be immediately connected to an amplifier. (Please purchase the cable separately.)
The pickup uses a piezo element similar to the SRT used in APX, CPX, and other eléacos. It has excellent response and sufficient output!
Double action truss rod" which was not equipped in the early L series is built in, and the structure works for both forward and reverse bending.
