  • Comfortable Neck Profile

    Extensive research with players, luthiers and guitar techs has given A-Series the feel and playability that today’s acoustic-electric players want, whether switching from electric to acoustic on-stage, recording a session with intricate open tunings, or practicing at home.. These superb guitars feature a straighter neck taper for easier high-fret playing, and hand-rolled fingerboard edges to achieve a played-in feel.

  • Powerful Acoustic Sound

    A-series has louder and stronger in the low-mid ranges thanks to cutting-edge acoustic analysis technology developed by the Yamaha R&D Division. . Their analysis led to the development of the new scalloped bracing for the top board and shorter bracing than normal for the back board.. Also, treating the top board with Yamaha's exclusive A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) process gives the instrument a rich, vintage quality tone, making it sound as though you'd been playing it for year from the very first moment you pick an A-series guitar up.

  • Elixir Strings

    A-series utilizes Elixir NANOWEB 80/20 Bronze Light strings. . These give the A-series a lively tone and extended tone life.. http://www.elixirstrings.com/guitar-strings/80-20-bronze-guitar-strings.html

  • Simple and Distinctive Looks

    The simple, organic design features wood binding and other techniques that capture the warmth of wood.. The distinctive shape of the pick guard, which stands out when performing, is a revival of the N1000 guitar that Yamaha released in 1975.

  • A5 : Premium Grade
