Yamaha TAG3 C Dreadnought TransAcoustic Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Sand Burst

Pushing the boundaries of what an acoustic guitar can deliver, Yamaha has introduced the TAG3 C TransAcoustic acoustic-electric guitar, a dreadnought style instrument that changes how songs are written, performed, and shared. With an innovative electronics system supplying on-board natural effects, real-time looping, Bluetooth connectivity, and convenient mobile editor, the TAG3 is the future of forward thinking, innovative musical creation.

Though the TransAcoustic electronics are the star of the show, Yamaha knows that a well-crafted and great sounding guitar is necessary for the revolutionary implementation. The body is constructed from a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides, providing a rich, balanced tone that projects even without the added electronics. Finished in a Sand Burst gloss finish, the natural grain of the wood peaks through the finish and gives life to the orange-to-yellow burst. A smooth mahogany neck offers easy movement across the 25.56" scale length, with full access to the 20 frets provided by the treble side cutaway in the body. An ebony fingerboard is affixed to provide pronounced mid-range tone and accentuated high-end attack. Maintaining tuning stability and supplying additional resonance, an ebony bridge is implemented in conjunction with a urea saddle and black ABS bridge pins, leading up to a urea nut and champagne-gold open gear tuners.

The TAG3 C expands the possibilities for songwriting and performance with the new TransAcoustic electronic system, blending effects, looping, and Bluetooth connectivity naturally into the resonant timbre of the acoustic guitar. Powered by internal actuators, this system vibrates and reacts to the guitar's tone, introducing real reverb, chorus, and delay effects that radiate organically from the guitar itself. In addition to the effects modes, a built-in looper lets musicians create layers in real time, adjustable by simple side controls and tap ring found just under the sound hole. To further adjust the electronic functions, the "TAG Remote" iOS and Android app allows players to fine-tune effects and manage loops straight from their mobile device. Add more layers to the performance by connecting a Bluetooth device to play along to favorite tunes, isolated drum beats, or utilize the guitar as a speaker for gatherings. With a built-in tuner, tap tempo, and volume control for plugged performances, the TAG3 C is an inspiring instrument that redefines the capabilities of an acoustic-electric guitar.

Whether on the go, with a crowd or solo, writing or performing, the Yamaha TAG3 C Dreadnought TransAcoustic Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Sand Burst covers all creative needs.
