The Yamaha LS6 ARE is a concert-size acoustic-electric built for players who want a comfortable body, natural acoustic tone, and straightforward amplification without a bulky onboard preamp.

The Brown Sunburst LS6 ARE features a solid Engelmann spruce top treated with Yamaha's A.R.E. process, along with rosewood back and sides. The combination gives the guitar a balanced, responsive voice that works well for fingerstyle, strumming, singer-songwriter accompaniment, and everyday acoustic playing.

Player-friendly details include:

• Concert body shape
• Solid Engelmann spruce top with A.R.E.
• Rosewood back and sides
• Mahogany + rosewood 5-ply neck
• Rosewood fingerboard and bridge
• 44 mm (1 3/4") nut width
• 25 9/16" scale length
• SRT Zero Impact passive pickup
• LINE OUT connection
• Gloss Brown Sunburst finish
• Elixir NANOWEB 80/20 Bronze Light strings

One of the appealing features of the LS6 ARE is its understated electronics. The SRT Zero Impact pickup keeps the traditional look of the acoustic top while giving you an easy way to plug into an amp, PA, or acoustic-oriented signal chain.

The concert body is a good fit for players who want something comfortable and manageable without moving all the way down to a smaller travel-style instrument. The familiar 44 mm nut width and traditional neck profile also make it easy to settle into for a variety of playing styles.
