Product Information
Every step in the creation of this excellent instrument, from tonewood selection to hand-sanding the frets, is done in a small factory by master craftsmen. Body top Most manufacturers are using Sitka spruce tops for their high end models. In Yamaha's experience, Engelmann spruce (Canada) naturally suits the role for top woods better than any other. The overriding quality for body top material is an allowance for resonance and Engelmann spruce has this attribute in abundance. It is a light wood that is easy to work and enables a good tone response with a wide harmonic range. Visually Engelmann spruce is comfortable on the eye and its opaque light yellow tint is reminiscent of a mature acoustic instrument. Back & side Yamaha uses solid rosewood for both the back and sides on the LJ16. The rosewood blends extremely well with the Engelmann spruce top. It disperses resonance evenly and effortlessly. Neck block The neck block reinforces the neck joint.Product Identifiers
