An ultra-stable 5-ply mahogany\/rosewood neck and ebony fretboard are smooth and sleek. The slimmer neck shape and an enhanced fingerboard edge gives the LL16D a feel and playability you'll love. A passive SRT Zero Impact Pickup uses six separate elements to detect each string and give you authentic plugged-in tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInnovative construction to build a better guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe great tone and smooth playability of the LL16D are due to Yamaha's never-ending search for perfection. The recently developed A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) process gives your guitar a broken-in and aged tone. By controlling the atmospheric pressure, temperature, and humidity, the molecular properties of the wood are manipulated to mirror those of a guitar that has been played for years. Each L Series guitar also sports a modified non-scalloped bracing that enhances the guitars low end. And the 5-ply mahogany\/rosewood neck, after re-evaluation of string height and spacing, has a new design for improved playability. The Yamaha LL16D utilizes newly developed advances in guitar construction to bring you an amazingly playable and great-sounding instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand-selected Spruce top for great tone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe choice of top wood can have a strong effect the sound of an acoustic guitar. For the LL16D, Yamaha chose a premium, hand-selected solid Engelmann spruce top. Chosen as much for its look as its tone, solid spruce has a well-rounded, articulate sound with excellent projection. Its rosewood back and sides provide exceptional bass and powerful projection. And because it's a solid-wood top, the tone will age gracefully, with enhanced harmonics and greater tonal balance as the years go by.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA full-range passive pickup system\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe passive SRT Zero Impact Pickup was designed by Yamaha to deliver a faithful reproduction of the LL16D's natural, dynamic sound. It was also designed to minimize the impact on the guitars looks and tone. The passive design doesn't use a bulky preamp that's routed into the body to hamper the instrument's look or resonance. Each string has its own piezoelectric element for a full-sounding and accurate sound. Because this is a passive pickup system, you'll need to use an external preamp when you want to plug in the Yamaha LL16D.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInnovative guitar design gives you an amazing-playing and sounding instrument\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-selected solid Engelmann spruce top with and solid rosewood back and sides provide rich tone and projection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntricate abalone inlay on the body and rosette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA.R.E. process molecularly \"ages\" the wood to match guitars that have been played for years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-ply mahogany\/rosewood neck has been redesigned for today's guitar player\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated non-scalloped bracing pattern delivers a fuller low-end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePassive SRT Zero Impact pickup uses individual piezo elements for each string\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard sided gig bag included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eString Type: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Strings: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Shape: Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Style: No Cutaway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-\/Right-handed: Right-handed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Wood: Solid Engelmann spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Wood: Solid rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Wood: 5-ply mahogany\/rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Inlay: Snowflakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Frets: 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Die-cast gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Material: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut\/Saddle Material: Urea\/Urea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 1.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronics: Passive SRT Zero Impact pickup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase Included: Hard sided gig bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45072562520143,"sku":"LL16DARE","price":1699.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/9466\/9382\/files\/30539_yamaha_ll16dare_YAMAHA-LL16DARE-ACCLAIM-DI.jpg?v=1775667212","url":"https:\/\/shop.musicredone.com\/products\/yamaha-ll16dare-original-jumbo-acoustic-electric-guitar-natural","provider":"RedOne Music Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
