Detail 01
TransAcoustic actuator with effects
Makes onboard reverb and chorus available without external amplification or effects.

Independent shopping perspective
Yamaha’s Brown Sunburst FG-TA is a six-string dreadnought acoustic-electric built around the TransAcoustic actuator. Reverb and chorus are generated by the guitar, so players can use those effects without connecting external amplification or effects. The construction combines a solid spruce top with mahogany neck, back and sides, plus a rosewood fingerboard and bridge. It has 20 frets and a 650 mm scale length. There is no cutaway, and storage protection needs to be purchased separately because the case is sold separately.
