Yamaha TransAcoustic TAG1E - translucent black

First released in 2016, the TransAcoustic Guitar is an innovative acoustic guitar that features Yamaha's TransAcoustic™ technology, which combines authentic acoustic sound with digital technology for advanced features.
Best of all, TransAcoustic Guitars can add effects to your playing without needing any external amplifier or cables—just the guitar itself. String vibrations are converted into electrical signals, which go through effects processing before being delivered to actuators inside the guitar. Vibrations generated by the actuators are then transmitted to the guitar body to produce the desired effects. The actual and processed sounds resonate together and radiate from within the guitar body to produce natural sound with rich effects. TransAcoustic Guitars have been praised for offering an acoustic guitar playing experience like never before.

As the second-generation model of the TransAcoustic Guitar line, the YAMAHA TransAcoustic TAG1E (Translucent Black) features the next evolution of the original TransAcoustic Guitar features. The Dreadnought body is well-suited to powerful strokes and features a solid Sitka spruce top and a layered Mahogany back and sides.
With an improved actuator (two total), the guitars also offer even higher-quality effects. Players can use the TAG Remote app to adjust the output of integrated Reverb and Chorus effects.

The TransAcoustic TAG1E is a Dreadnought featuring a solid Sitka Spruce top, layered back and sides, Mahogany neck and Walnut fretboard.
The Walnut offers a great frequency balance with thick and clear bass, intense mids and generous highs. A good alternative for Rosewood.
In this tonewoods configuration it produces warm sounds with generous mids but with clarity thanks to the Spruce top

The Yamaha TransAcoustic TAG1E is for intermediate to experienced players looking for a versatile instrument suitable for strumming or finger-picking in Folk, Pop, Country or Blues registers.
