Yamaha LS16HB Rosewood Small Body Acoustic/Electric Natural with hard Bag
SKU:
ae00-27718
Manufacturer Part #:
LS16HB
The LS16 ARE features a bracing pattern and A.R.E. treatment, which create rich warmth and open resonance while maintaining excellent tone balance.
A.R.E. is an original wood-reforming technology developed by Yamaha. Through precise control of temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure, the molecular properties of the wood can be manipulated into a more acoustically ideal condition, similar to the molecular characteristics of woods in instruments that have been played for years.
A modified non-scalloped bracing design retains the L Series' characteristic bright tone while enhancing low-end tone.
A re-evaluation of string spacing, string height, fingerboard binding and the neck taper led to a distinct neck shape that better suits today's traditional players, offering stable grip and smooth playability over the full length of the neck.
The SRT Zero Impact pickup system is a passive pickup configuration designed to minimize the pickup's impact on the tone and traditional appearance of the instrument. The system utilizes individual, piezo-electric elements for each string to faithfully reproduce the dynamic sound of the L Series and give the instrument outstanding presence when playing in a band.
