Description

For decades, Yamaha has offered guitars for every player and skill level with professional quality and materials. With their CSF line of acoustics, Yamaha bridges the divides of portability, playability, and full sound. 

If the term “Parlor” in reference to a guitar invokes adjectives such as “tinny” or “small”, or words such as “piece” and “of junk”, get ready to be pleasantly surprised. The CSF line is billed as a Modern Parlor guitar, offering the size and easy reach of the Parlor style with modern refinements and high regard to build quality at an easier to handle price point. 

The Yamaha CSF3M is an acoustic of all-solid construction - no MBFs or laminate woods here! Its body comprises of a solid Sitka Spruce top and solid Mahogany back and sides. The neck is made of Nato, a species of hardwood with similar density and appearance as Mahogany. 

With a 1 11/16” nut width and short 23 5/8” scale length, this Modern Parlor guitar is a great choice for the player who may not necessarily fit with the standard Dreadnought or Jumbo style guitar. Fear not of a sonic sacrifice in this smaller instrument! The CSF3M features forward shifted scalloped bracing, giving this guitar enhanced bass and greater resonance

The CSF3M also features a passive electronic system, optimizing its potential use on the live stage. A durable deluxe gig bag helps this guitar travel with ease, whether at the bonfire or Bonaroo, from campfires to Coachella.
