What is the difference between a high-end production guitar and a Custom Shop model?

High-end production guitars (such as PRS Core Custom 24 or Gibson USA Standard) utilize advanced CNC precision combined with hand-finishing in standard production runs. Custom Shop models feature lower batch volumes, hand-selected tonewoods, custom hand-wound pickups, period-accurate construction, and master luthier voicing.

Why should I avoid drop-shipped high-end electric guitars?

Drop-shipped guitars are dispatched directly from logistics warehouses without unboxing or inspection. Without a bench inspection and 5-point setup by an in-house guitar technician, you risk receiving an unplayable instrument affected by climate shifts during storage and transit.

What does MusicStreet's 5-point setup include?

Every instrument sold through MusicStreet undergoes a comprehensive 5-point bench inspection: truss rod and neck relief calibration, nut slot depth check, bridge radius and intonation alignment, pickup height and electronic circuit testing, and fretboard conditioning.

Can I try boutique and custom shop guitars in person at MusicStreet?

Yes. MusicStreet operates a showroom at 10 Chequers Court, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, where players can test premium PRS, Fender, and Gibson models through high-end amplifiers in a dedicated testing environment.

Yamaha TAG3C TransAcoustic Guitar - Natural

1. Enrich your playing experience with three fully integrated built-in effects

String vibrations are converted into electrical signals, which go through effects processing before being delivered to actuators inside the guitar. The actuators transmit these vibrations to the guitar body to produce enhanced sound. This makes it possible to add effects that radiate from the guitar body, without the need for external amplifiers or speakers.

The TAG3 C is the first TransAcoustic Guitar to offer a Delay effect, in addition to the original Chorus and Reverb, for a total of three effects. Enjoy high-quality, carefully crafted sound produced by two newly improved actuators. Use the dedicated TAG Remote app to change the type of effect and fine-tune effect parameters to discover the perfect sound for your own playing style.

2. Looper function enables recording and playback without external equipment

Use the new built-in looper functionality to record your own sound and play it back in a loop. For example, you could record yourself playing chords and drumming on the guitar body, and then loop that back while you play a melody on top of it all. Buttons on the side of the guitar and a tap sensor on top offer intuitive controls, giving the player the power to create freely, quickly transforming ideas into music. The dedicated app can save up to ten looped phrases for easy recall at any time.

3. Audio playback through the guitar body using Bluetooth offers a new way to enjoy the guitar

The TAG3 C is the first TransAcoustic Guitar with Bluetooth audio capability. Connect your own smartphone or other audio device to use the guitar body as a speaker and enjoy listening to great sound. Alternatively, play along with your favorite songs as if you were participating in a jam session, for a fresh, new playing experience.

4. Great acoustic guitar sound and playing experience, combined with a sophisticated design

The TAG3 C features a dreadnought-style body, suitable for powerful strokes, with a solid Sitka spruce top and a solid mahogany back and sides. A cutaway design offers easy access to the upper frets near the body for even better playability. Champagne gold hardware and a gorgeous inlay around the sound hole contribute to the guitar's characteristically stylish design.

While previous models used dry cell batteries, the TAG3 C features a rechargeable lithium-ion battery with a magnetic charging connection for bigger sound and longer playtime (up to five and a half hours). The body also features a built-in tuner, which means you can pick up the guitar and play straight away, without needing to prepare a standalone tuner. When connected to an amplifier, the TAG3 C transforms into an acoustic-electric guitar, perfect for use in live stage performances.
