Yamaha TAG3 C TransAcoustic Guitar
Listen, Play, and Create: The Whole Creative Process in a Single Guitar

2nd Generation of Guitars Featuring TransAcoustic™ Technology to Revolutionize the Playing Experience

Yamaha Corporation announces the release of its TAG3 C TransAcoustic™ Guitar, an acoustic guitar with actuators inside to add rich effects to the guitar's natural sound without needing any external amplifier or cables—just the guitar itself.

First released in 2016, the TransAcoustic Guitar is an innovative acoustic guitar that features Yamaha's TransAcoustic™ technology, which combines authentic acoustic sound with digital technology for advanced features. Best of all, TransAcoustic Guitars can add effects to your playing without needing any external amplifier or cables—just the guitar itself. String vibrations are converted into electrical signals, which go through effects processing before being delivered to actuators inside the guitar. Vibrations generated by the actuators are then transmitted to the guitar body to produce the desired effects. The actual and processed sounds resonate together and radiate from within the guitar body to produce natural sound with rich effects. TransAcoustic Guitars have been praised for offering an acoustic guitar playing experience like never before.

As the second-generation model of the TransAcoustic Guitar line, the TAG3 C features the next evolution of the original TransAcoustic Guitar features. The cutaway dreadnought body is well-suited to powerful strokes and features a solid Sitka spruce top and a solid mahogany back and sides. With an extra, newly improved actuator (two total), the guitars also offer even higher-quality effects, along with built-in looper functionality. A new Delay effect has been added to the original Reverb and Chorus, for a total of three available effects. Looper functionality stimulates creativity by giving players the ability to record their own sound and play it back in a loop, allowing them to layer phrases while playing. Players can use the TAG Remote app to adjust the output of these effects. New Bluetooth® audio capability also lets the user connect a smart device and play audio through the guitar body. The TAG3 C is an all-in-one instrument that covers the full breadth of the musical creative process: listening, playing, and creating.

Overview
- Enrich your playing experience with three fully integrated built-in effects
- Looper function enables recording and playback without external equipment
- Audio playback through the guitar body using Bluetooth offers a new way to enjoy the guitar
- Great acoustic guitar sound and playing experience, combined with a sophisticated design

Key Features

1. Enrich your playing experience with three fully integrated built-in effects
String vibrations are converted into electrical signals, which go through effects processing before being delivered to actuators inside the guitar. The actuators transmit these vibrations to the guitar body to produce enhanced sound. This makes it possible to add effects that radiate from the guitar body, without the need for external amplifiers or speakers.

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.

2. Looper function enables recording and playback without external equipment
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.

3. Audio playback through the guitar body using Bluetooth offers a new way to enjoy the guitar
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.

4. Great acoustic guitar sound and playing experience, combined with a sophisticated design
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.
