Yamaha CSF1M Acoustic Guitar - Crimson Red Burst

Combining the portability of a travel guitar with the focused tonal characteristics of a parlor guitar, Yamaha CSF1M features a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides, newly designed scalloped bracing and a passive undersaddle piezo pickup.

• CSF body is smaller and more compact for easier playing and travel
• 23.6" scale length is shorter and easier to play
• 14 frets are clear of the body for easier upper-fret access
• Solid Sitka spruce top for increased resonance
• Scalloped top-bracing for improved low end response and resonance
• Mahogany back and sides produce a warm and woody sound
• Nato neck with matte finish plays fast and smooth
• Rosewood fingerboard produces a warm sound to tame harsh high end
• Rosewood bridge gives stability and a rounded tone
• SRT Zero Impact passive pickup faithfully reproduces the sound of the guitar
• Elixir NANOWEB 80/20 bronze light strings for balanced tone and long life

 

Compact body, full-size sound
Despite its compact size, which some guitarists find more comfortable to play than larger instruments, CSF1M's design increases bass response and overall loudness, resulting in a surprisingly full, rich and vibrant sound.

The secret to great resonance
CSF1M features scalloped bracing that delivers rich, full-bodied resonance comparable to that of a full-size guitar. Additionally, the use of a forward-shifted construction maintains the strength of the body while maximizing the resonance of the guitar top.

Durable gig bag
CSF1M comes with a durable deluxe gig bag for easy transport, making it an ideal travel companion.

Passive undersaddle pickup
CSF1M is equipped with an undersaddle piezo pickup. With an individual sensor under each string, this pickup delivers superb sound when connecting to an amplifier or PA system. This is a passive design that doesn't require batteries, a simple and convenient solution for the studio or stage.

For the road and the destination
Available in four finishes and featuring a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and side and an innovative scalloped bracing design, CSF1M delivers a surprisingly full and rich sound for its size, whether at home, on the road, in the studio or on stage.

Studio
CSF1M can be an inspiring alternative to full-size dreadnought guitars when recording, providing a full, rich and resonant sound that can stand alone even on recordings where the acoustic guitar is prominently featured.

Stage
CSF1M's passive undersaddle pickup allows players to easily plug into an amplifier or PA system when performing live.
