[SN IKN020099] YAMAHA / AC3R ARE Tobacco Sunburst (TBS) [08]
We incorporated feedback from numerous guitarists and technicians to achieve a natural playing feel and superior playability. This was accomplished by rounding the edges of the fingerboard and carefully designing the neck taper to ensure a comfortable grip even near the body joint.
It is easy to play even in the high frets, and the transition from an electric guitar feels seamless, delivering exceptional playability in a variety of settings, including live performances, recording, and practice.
Using Yamaha’s proprietary analysis technology, we’ve refined the bracing system, incorporating a newly designed scalloped bracing pattern on the top and bracing specifically developed for cutaway models on the back.
This achieves a rich, full-bodied sound—despite the cutaway—and powerful resonance in the mid-to-low range!
The body features a cutaway and a tapered folk-style shape; it is all-solid, with Sitka spruce on the top and rosewood on the sides and back.
The spruce top has been treated with our proprietary "A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement)" process. This achieves a rich tone reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years!!
The pickup system features the newly developed "SRT2" system, an evolution of the "SRT (Studio Response Technology)" system.
While retaining the sound characteristics of the "SRT" system—which delivers an acoustic sound rich in ambience, as if recorded by a top-tier sound engineer in a studio—the system has been streamlined by carefully selecting only essential functions, resulting in high operability ideal for stage performances and practice sessions.
The pickup unit features a piezo pickup with independent elements for each string, allowing players to easily create their desired sound by blending the piezo pickup’s sound with the sound produced by the “SRT2” system.
Furthermore, you can choose between two different microphone types to suit your playing style and the songs you’re performing.
The design eschews flashy embellishments, using wood for the binding around the body and the soundhole inlay to create an organic, high-quality impression that conveys the warmth of wood.
The pickguard features a striking design inspired by the "N1000" acoustic guitar, a model beloved by top artists in the 1970s.
