    Yamaha LSTA TransAcoustic Acoustic-Electric Guitar

    There's nothing more inspiring than playing guitar in a great-sounding room. The way the notes bloom and resonate makes you play better and longer. The Yamaha LSTA TransAcoustic guitar recreates that immersive experience without any amps or pedals. This all-solid-wood instrument produces incredible reverb and chorus effects straight from the body, delivering a pure, natural tone that will ignite your creativity.

    Yamaha LSTA TransAcoustic The Room Built Right In

    The Room Built Right In

    A lot of acoustic guitars need the right room to create a great sound. The Yamaha TransAcoustic, however, generates its own rich chorus and deep reverb from within its body, defying the physical space you're in. An ingenious actuator on the inner back panel vibrates with your strings, pushing effected air out of the soundhole. It's pure acoustic alchemy.

    • Actuator Technology: An internal mechanism translates string vibrations into lush reverb and sweeping chorus, bringing the acoustics of a grand concert hall directly into your living room.
    • Streamlined Controls: Three low-profile knobs let you dial in chorus, adjust the reverb from a tight room to a massive hall, and control your line-out volume without compromising the wood's resonance.
    • Integrated Battery Box: Cleverly built into the end-pin jack, the battery compartment requires fewer holes in the tonewood, preserving maximum acoustic energy and raw volume.

    Vintage Sound, Modern Power

    Even the most amazing effect can't salvage a thin-sounding guitar. That's why the LSTA is an all-solid masterpiece based on Yamaha’s legendary L-Series, crafted to deliver rich, articulate tones right out of the case. Using a proprietary aging process, Yamaha treats the wood to sound like it has spent decades in a smoky jazz club, giving it a beautifully mature and warm resonance.

    • A.R.E. Treated Top: Yamaha's exclusive Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) process "bakes" the solid Engelmann spruce top, artificially aging the wood's cellular structure. The result? A rich, broken-in vintage tone from day one.
    • Modified Scalloped Bracing: This meticulously engineered bracing pattern beefs up the low-end punch while preserving the shimmering, bell-like highs the L-Series is known for.
    • All-Solid Construction: Solid rosewood back and sides are the perfect partner for the A.R.E. top, creating exceptional volume, a wide dynamic range, and complex harmonics.

    Yamaha LSTA TransAcoustic A Road-Ready Performer

    A Road-Ready Performer

    You’ll inevitably lose track of time playing this guitar. To keep hand fatigue at bay, Yamaha sculpted a neck that feels like a natural extension of your arm. The concert-sized body is supremely comfortable for fingerstyle pickers and strummers alike, while the reinforced neck ensures your setup remains completely stable through wild weather changes.

    • 5-Ply Mahogany/Rosewood Neck: This ultra-stable, five-ply neck resists warping to keep your string action consistently low and comfortable.
    • Hand-Rolled Fingerboard Edges: The ebony fingerboard features smoothly rolled edges, giving the neck a comfortable, played-in feel that allows your hand to glide effortlessly.
    • Straighter Neck Taper: A straighter taper provides a consistent feel from the lowest frets to the highest, ensuring comfortable, stress-free playing during marathon sessions.

    Play Unplugged, Sound Amplified

    The Yamaha LSTA TransAcoustic is what happens when brilliant engineering serves genuine musical inspiration. It completely redefines the solo playing experience, wrapping your notes in a lush acoustic environment without stripping away the organic feel of wood and steel. You don't need to plug in to sound larger than life.
