The Yamaha TAG1E TransAcoustic puts built-in acoustic effects in the hands of the performance-minded player. A solid Sitka spruce top with mahogany back and sides gives this dreadnought a loud, bold voice with plenty of projection and articulation, while the mahogany neck and smooth walnut fingerboard keep strumming and fingerpicking comfortable.

Yamaha's TransAcoustic technology is the headline act. Onboard reverb, delay, and chorus come from the guitar itself — no amplifier, PA, or effects pedals required. Engage the simple controls and it's as if you're playing in a rich, ambient venue, which makes everyday practice a lot more inspiring.

The key is an integrated actuator hidden inside the body. String vibration sets the actuator in motion, and those vibrations transfer to the guitar body and the air around it, producing authentic effects acoustically. For gigs, the System70 + SRT Piezo pickup system delivers those same tones plugged in. Finished in Sand Burst with a gloss top, satin neck, and die-cast chrome tuners, the TAG1E ships with Elixir Nanoweb strings and a softshell case.

Effects Without An Amp

TransAcoustic technology generates reverb, delay, and chorus from inside the guitar itself, so you don't need an amplifier, PA, or pedalboard. Just engage the controls and play.

Practice That Inspires

Playing in a rich, ambient space makes you want to keep playing. The TAG1E delivers that feeling anywhere you sit down with it, which means more time spent with the guitar in your hands.

Ready For The Gig

When it's time to plug in, the System70 + SRT Piezo pickup system delivers those same effect-laden tones through a PA or amp. One guitar covers the couch and the stage.

Solid Sitka Spruce Top

The solid spruce top produces a bright, articulate sound and helps the guitar project with every strum. It's finished in gloss for a classic look.

Mahogany Back And Sides

Mahogany back and sides form a sonorous foundation under the spruce top, adding warmth to the dreadnought's powerful output.

Dreadnought Body

The traditional dreadnought shape delivers the volume and projection that strummers and flatpickers rely on.

Mahogany Neck, C Profile

The satin-finished mahogany neck uses a comfortable C profile that feels natural for both chord work and lead lines.

Walnut Fingerboard

The walnut fingerboard has a smooth texture for easy position changes, with a 15.75-inch radius and a 1.75-inch nut width.

Integrated Actuator

A small actuator hidden inside the body vibrates along with the strings, transmitting those vibrations into the guitar body and the surrounding air to create authentic effects.
