Yamaha TAG3C TransAcoustic Guitar - Sandburst

The guitar utilizes advanced technology to convert string vibrations into electrical signals, which then go through effects processing before being transmitted to actuators within the guitar. These actuators send the vibrations to the guitar body, resulting in a heightened and enhanced sound. This cutting-edge feature eliminates the need for external amplifiers or speakers, allowing for built-in effects that emanate directly from the guitar's body.

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.

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.

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.

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.
