Greetings from the Tweed Hut Music Store, Vacaville, CA. USA! Established 2002, We do a great job and will not let you down!

Yamaha L-Series, like this LS6M A.R.E., offers the perfect combination of traditional and modern: a warm, balanced tone that fits perfectly into a solo performance or mix; timeless good looks inspired by Yamaha’s 50 years of guitar crafting; instant played-in comfort; stage-ready performance as standard with Yamaha’s Zero Impact pickup system.

The LS6M A.R.E. features a hand-selected premium solid Engelmann spruce top and mahogany back and sides. This variation gives powerful low-mid and more open sound.The LS6M A.R.E. was built with a modified non-scalloped bracing design which retains the L Series' characteristic bright tone while enhancing low-end tone. The high comfortable traditional neck profile provides stable grip and smooth playability over the full length of the neck. Speaking of the neck, it's a 5-ply neck composed of mahogany and rosewood with double-action adjustable rod for a stronger, more stable neck.

A.R.E Acoustic Resonance Enhancement
As its name suggests, the LS6M ARE acoustic comes with Yamaha's A.R.E. original reforming technology. Through precise controll of temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, the molecular properties of the wood can be manipulated into a more acoustically ideal condition, similar to the molecular characteristics of woods in instruments that have been played for years.

SRT Zero Impact Pickup 
This system is a newly developed passive type pickup configuration designed to minimize the pickup’s impact on the tone and traditional appearance of the instrument. The system utilizes individual piezo-electric elements for each string to faithfully reproduce the dynamic sound of the L Series and give the instrument outstanding presence when playing in a band.
