Here for sale we have a Yamaha LW-15C Electro Acoustic Guitar in Natural Satin finish. Made in Taiwan, this set-neck constructed guitar consists of a Solid Spruce top, Laminated Mahogany body, a Mahogany neck, and a 20-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include closed back chrome tuners, a Rosewood bridge, flower inlays, and a Yamaha AMF Preamp and Pickup System with controls for the volume, AMF, bass, mids, high, and EQ pass.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with a profile which could be described as a soft 'V' filling the hand comfortably without being at all cumbersome. This promotes ergonomic thumb positioning and easy reach across the register, perfect for a wide range of playing styles and techniques. The Gloss finish to the rear of the neck assists with smooth navigation of the 25.5" scale length, whilst the Rosewood fingerboard adds a touch of luxury to the already opulent playing experience.
The acoustic voice of the Yamaha LW-15C is balanced and rich, providing great projection and good volume due its solid construction. The Mahogany back and sides enhance the character of the tone, producing a smooth mid range and responsive and strong bass that is complemented well with the brightness of the Solid Sitka Spruce top. Furthermore the Spruce top projects beautifully, delivering ample volume and dynamic range whilst retaining clarity throughout. The Yamaha AMF Preamp and Undersaddle Pickup faithfully convey the acoustic voice of the instrument while offering comprehensive control of the tone, making this guitar a perfect partner for a song/songwriter.
