TAS1E TransAcoustic 2nd Gen

Step Beyond the Acoustic guitar

Evolving the innovative TransAcoustic Guitar concept of adding effects to your natural sound without external gear, the new generation pushes this forward with additional features including a looper and Bluetooth® support. The entire creative process of listening, playing, and creating is brought together in a single guitar, where inspiration meets innovation.

Blending technology with tradition

Whilst the design and build quality of the instrument is impressive alone, the TransAcoustic effects takes the guitar to another level. Through Yamaha's unique technology that enhances the guitar's natural resonance, the chorus, reverb, and delay effects are immersive and blend seamlessly with the acoustic tone

A Lineup Tailored to Every Player

Available in three grades and two body shapes—dreadnought-style and concert-style — TransAcoustic guitars are designed to complement individual playing styles and lifestyles. The varied lineup ensures you can find a model that resonates with your needs and musical expression.

Built-in Effects

Actuators installed on the inner surface of the guitar resonate in response to the vibrations of the strings. The vibrations are then transmitted to the body and to the surrounding air, producing rich and immersive effects such as reverb and chorus that actually radiate from within the body.

Simple Controls

A compact and intuitive control layout allows easy access to the features supported by each model—such as effect adjustment, looper, or Bluetooth pairing. Small, space-efficient buttons help reduce the amount of body wood removed, preserving the guitar’s natural acoustic tone.
