YAMAHA TAS1E NATURAL TRANSACOUSTIC GUITAR
Building on the first generation, the TA1E guitars offer optimized reverb and chorus with authentic tone in a sleek, modern design. It is ideal for discovering the TransAcoustic guitar experience.
STEP BEYOND THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR
Evolving the innovative TransAcoustic Guitar concept of adding effects to your natural sound without external gear, the new generation pushes this forward with additional features including a looper and Bluetooth support. The entire creative process of listening, playing, and creating is brought together in a single guitar, where inspiration meets innovation.


BLENDING TECHNOLOGY WITH TRADITION
Whilst the design and build quality of the instrument is impressive alone, the TransAcoustic effects takes the guitar to another level. Through Yamaha's unique technology that enhances the guitar's natural resonance, the chorus, reverb, and delay effects are immersive and blend seamlessly with the acoustic tone


BLUETOOTH SUPPORT
TAG3 C features Bluetooth® functionality for audio playback. Connect to smart devices and play your favorite songs from the guitar's body. The sound is transmitted by the vibrations of the actuators inside the guitar, giving a realistic sound that brings music to life.


BUILT-IN EFFECTS
Two actuators installed on the inner surface of the guitar resonate in response to the vibrations of the strings. The vibrations generated by the actuators are then transmitted to the body of the guitar and to the air in and around it, resulting in authentic reverb, chorus and delay sounds that actually radiate from within the body.


BUILT-IN LOOPER
With the onboard looper feature, you can effortlessly record and playback your performances. Play melodies over your backing tracks or create unique beats by tapping your guitar. The possibilities for creativity are endless, limited only by your imagination.


RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
TAG3 C features a built-in rechargeable Li-ion battery with magnetic charging connection, giving you up to 5.5 hours of play time.


SIMPLE CONTROLS
Four simple buttons control effect levels, loopers and Bluetooth pairing. The small buttons occupy less space, reducing the acoustic sound loss that results from removing body wood. The line-out volume can also be adjusted using a dial in the soundhole.


MOBILE EDITOR
The iOS/Android compatible "TAG Remote" app is a dedicated editor for TransAcoustic guitar players. Various settings such as effect parameter adjustment and loop phrase management can be controlled on your smart device.
