* Nylon-string guitars are a completely different animal than steel-string or electric guitars, right? Well, that's been the conventional wisdom - until now. With the Yamaha NX Series, you may have to reorient your thinking. That's because these innovative acoustic-electric nylon-string guitars have been developed with the needs of today's performer in mind, with modern body styles, preamps and pickup systems. The NCX1C nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar's contemporary appearance and traditional neck profile, in addition to its advanced electronics and stunning cedar top, make it an excellent choice for nylon-string players seeking superior, amplified sound. Contemporary Style and Traditional Neck Profile Yamaha craftsmanship ensures that all NX Series guitars have exceptional playability and tone. In the case of the NCX1C, players are presented with modern sonic excellence juxtaposted by some old-school flavor. While the NCX1C works to accomplish goals for the modern-day guitarist's performances and live rig, it does so with a traditional neck profile and width, along with standard-nylon string body depth and strap buttons. It may be a familiar feel and approach, but your sound is going to elevate to undiscovered heights. Advanced Electronics An integrated undersaddle piezo pickup with individual string sensors capture only the mid and low frequencies, thus eliminating the characteristic brittleness of piezo pickups. A unique synthetic sheet transducer captures the highs, and an internal microphone captures overall body resonance and "airiness". With preamps featuring 3-band equalizers with adjustable mid-frequencies and an onboard-tuner, this is the performing guitarist's dream come true. Cedar Top While advanced electronic systems are crucial to the NX Series' sound, we simply cannot ignore the significance of the NCX1C's solid Western red cedar top and nato back and sides. This beautiful combination of wood results in lovely tone and resonance, making it an acoustic juggernaut guaranteed to fill any venue with elite-level sound.
