Description
The Yamaha LS16 ARE is a remarkable fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. Designed to deliver a full-bodied sound while remaining comfortable and compact, this guitar is perfect for musicians looking to prioritize playability without sacrificing tone.
The LS16 features a solid Engelmann spruce top enhanced with Yamaha's A.R.E. treatment, which gives it the depth and tonal richness of a guitar that's been well-played for years. Its solid rosewood body produces a decadent low-end and a sweet treble response, while its SRT Zero Impact Pickup system makes it a stage-ready acoustic with enough volume to fill any room. And since the SRT Zero Impact has individual piezo elements for each string, it captures every nuance of your playing.
With its comfortable, traditional neck profile, this guitar offers smooth playability across the entire fretboard, allowing for effortless transitions from the lower to the upper registers. The new high-comfort neck design, with reevaluated string spacing and height, ensures a stable grip and fluid playability, making it ideal for both seasoned players and newcomers alike.
Whether you're an acoustic purist or a stage performer seeking a reliable guitar, the Yamaha LS16 ARE delivers the perfect blend of comfort, sound, and style.
