These innovative effects actually bounce off the body of your guitar, creating a revolutionary and completely unique tone that can be tailored to fit. Carved with a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides, Yamaha once again deliver consistent and reliable industry standard manufacturing, and the wider bottom western style cutaway helps deliver both volume and tone. This guitar will not only stick with you for a long time – but also reward you with a development in tone and feel every time you pick it up.

Place yourself at the heart of acoustic innovation

One of the first guitars of its kind, the Trans-Acoustic’s built-in Actuator effects are a revolutionary step forward for acoustic technology. The Yamaha Actuator is placed on the inside of the body and responds to the vibrations of the strings, emitting natural chorus and reverb effects from within the guitar itself. Hold innovation in the palm of your hand with the small control knobs that alter the level of the effects, as well as allowing you to switch between room and hall reverb around the 12:00 position.

Wherever you play, this guitar is right there with you. The battery powered electric feature will let you to introduce your very own take on the classic Yamaha acoustic sound to the big (or small) stage. Carved into a wider traditional western cutaway shape, this guitar’s scalloped inner bracing delivers a powerful acoustic voice capable of responding to the dynamic of your playing.

Designed for your comfort and style

The Trans-Acoustic is designed with a brown sunburst wrap that holds the aesthetic of an old school sun-drenched guitar, with all the perks of modern technology. Enjoy a matt finished neck and rosewood fingerboard, developed to maximise creative control whilst keeping you comfortable when moving between the frets at the speed you desire. You can climb as high as you like thanks to the cutaway body shape, which leaves that little bit more room to access the higher regions of the fretboard. This feature is assisted by the mahogany back and sides fixed to a spruce soundboard top, presenting a high-class outer aesthetic that also supplies a richness to the sound.</
