DISC SPECIAL ORDER Yamaha LS6RM Electro Acoustic Guitar, Matte

Full Description

Solid Engelmann Spruce, Rosewood Back and Sides

The Yamaha guitar features a solid Engelmann Spruce top that delivers loud tones with a broad dynamical range. The top wood is light, strong and produces crisp, colourful tones that are powerful, direct, and have an immediate articulation. The Spruce also retains its clarity, even when driven hard.

the guitar’s back and side panels are constructed from Rosewood for an incredibly smooth, warm tone with complex harmonic overtones. The Rosewood offers a very versatile tone whilst keeping it balanced, providing a strong clear presence. The back and sides also provide dark and complex characteristics, enhancing the guitars top and bottom ends.

A.R.E. Treated

Yamaha has treated the guitars top with their own original wood reforming technology. Known as acoustic resonance enhancement, and developed by Yamaha, this treatment ages the wood through cooking it and provides the wood with tonal richness.

Rosewood/Mahogany Neck, Rosewood Fingerboard

The guitar’s neck is made from a 5-ply Mahogany/Rosewood combination and delivers a warm, mellow tone with complex highs, creamily thick lows, and good presence in the mids. The guitar’s Rosewood fingerboard also offers a warm tone, as well as adding softness with plenty of rich tonal character.

Zero Impact Passive Pickup

The LS series guitar features a zero impact passive pickup that sits underneath the saddle to pick up the vibrations of the guitar's strings. With separate piezo electric elements for each string, the pickup faithfully reproduces the sound whilst keeping it full. As a passive pickup, this means that there is no preamp in the guitar, removing the plastic control panel from the side of the guitar to provide a more classic acoustic look.
