Expanding the possibilities of what an acoustic guitar can provide, Yamaha has invented the TAG3 C TransAcoustic acoustic-electric guitar, a dreadnought style instrument that transforms 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 next step in forward thinking, innovative musical creation.

Though the TransAcoustic electronics are the defining factor in the TAG3 C, Yamaha knows that a well-crafted and excellent sounding guitar is necessary for the revolutionary implementation. The body is crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, providing a warm, balanced tone that fills a room even without the electronics. Finished in a natural gloss finish, the grain of the wood speaks for itself, shimmering under complementary lighting. 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 provided to introduce a pronounced mid-range tone and accentuated high-end attack. Ensuring tuning stability and offering additional resonance, an ebony bridge is affixed to the body in conjunction with a urea saddle and black ABS bridge pins, leading up to a urea nut and champagne-gold open gear tuners for full tonal support.

The TAG3 C pushes the boundaries for songwriting and performance with the new TransAcoustic electronic system, blending effects, looping, and Bluetooth connectivity naturally into the resonant brilliance of the guitar. Powered by internal actuators, this system vibrates and reacts to the guitar's tone, introducing real reverb, chorus, and delay effects that exude organically from the guitar itself. In addition to the effects modes, a built-in looper lets musicians craft 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. Introduce more layers to the performance by connecting a Bluetooth device to play along to favorite songs, isolated drum grooves, or use the guitar as a speaker for playback. With a built-in tuner, tap tempo, and volume control for plugged performances, the TAG3 C is an inspiring instrument that changes the expectations of what an acoustic-electric guitar can do.

For practicing, performing, writing, and recording, the Yamaha TAG3 C Dreadnought TransAcoustic Acoustic-Electric Guitar does it all.
