The concert body with a cutaway stays comfortable through a three-hour set. Vintage Natural gloss finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSolid Sitka spruce with A.R.E., scalloped bracing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top is solid Sitka spruce put through Yamaha's A.R.E. treatment, which ages the wood so the guitar responds like one that has been played for years rather than one fresh out of the box. Scalloped bracing beneath it lets the top move more freely for a louder, more open response. Back and sides are solid rosewood, adding depth in the bass and sparkle in the highs, framed by mahogany and cream binding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSRT2 pickup system with two mic types\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SRT2 (SYSTEM71) combines a piezo under the saddle with a choice of two microphone types, and a blend control sets how much of each reaches the line out. Treble, bass and volume are on the panel with an AFR anti-feedback function, so the sound engineer gets a usable signal without a pedalboard in between. It comes strung with Elixir Nanoweb 80\/20 bronze light-gauge strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConcert cutaway body, 650mm scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe concert body is 380mm wide and 100 to 120mm deep, so it sits closer to you than a dreadnought while the 650mm scale keeps full string tension and a strong attack. The cutaway opens up the upper frets for lead lines and chord voicings above the twelfth fret. Body length is 497mm and total length 1038mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEbony fingerboard on a three-ply mahogany neck\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe neck is African mahogany in three plies for stability, matt-finished, with a 43mm nut and 11mm string spacing that suits fingerstyle and flatpicking alike. Fingerboard and bridge are both ebony, hard-wearing and fast under the fingers, with a 400mm radius. Die-cast chrome TM29T tuners and black ABS bridge pins with white dots complete it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSet up and ready\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe urea nut and saddle get their action dressed and the 650mm scale is intonated, and the SRT2 output is checked. Set up in-store by Guitar World Australia's techs before it ships to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYamaha\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAC3R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConcert Cutaway Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eScale Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e650mm (25 9\/16\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eTop\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid Sitka Spruce A.R.E. w\/Scalloped Bracing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBack\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid Rosewood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eSides\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid Rosewood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eNeck\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAfrican Mahogany 3ply\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eFingerboard\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEbony\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eFingerboard Radius\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR400mm (15 3\/4\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBridge\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEbony\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eNut Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43mm (1 11\/16\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eString Spacing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.0mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eNut\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUrea\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eSaddle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUrea\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBridge Pins\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack ABS with White Dot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eTuners\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDie-cast Chrome(TM29T)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBody Binding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMahogany + Cream\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eSoundhole Inlay\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRosewood + Mahogany + Black + White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003ePickguard\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTortoise Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBody Finish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGloss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eNeck Finish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eElectronics\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSRT2 (SYSTEM71)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eControls\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVol\/Mic Type Select(2 types)\/Treble\/Bass\/SRT-Piezo Blend\/AFR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eOutput\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLINE OUT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eStrings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElixir NANOWEB 80\/20 Bronze Light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBody Depth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100-120mm (3 15\/16\" -
