With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides, this guitar sounds fantastic. The Yamaha A5R also benefits from Yamaha's A.R.E. wood torrefaction, a high-heat treatment that imbues the guitar top with greater stability and an aged, vintage hue. The A5R also takes full advantage of Yamaha's acclaimed SRT2 pickup system for recording and stage performance. You get volume, treble, and bass controls (with auto feedback reduction), and blend control allows you to balance between the piezo and SRT2 preamp, for your own distinctive tone. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-copywriters\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-copywriters\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModern audio engineering with vintage style\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the Yamaha A5R has a traditional western body cutaway, its lows and highs resonate even more fully than those generated by conventional designs, thanks to new scalloped top bracing and shorter back board bracing. These modifications allow the top and back to resonate more naturally and with greater volume in the low-mid ranges. The western cutaway gives it a classic look, but an all-new brace design definitely brings the Yamaha A5R into the twenty-first century — and the Irvine Art \u0026amp; Music showroom! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuality woods plus innovation equal brilliant sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSitka spruce is highly valued for guitar tops — and for good reason. This select grade of stiff but elastic softwood is equally suited to aggressive strumming, flatpicking, and even fingerpicking styles of play. The Yamaha A5R features a solid Sitka top treated at high heat to remove moisture and volatiles (the A.R.E. process), resulting in greater stability and a beautiful aged color. The A5R solid rosewood back and sides also produce warm, balanced tones from low to high, and the ebony fingerboard and bridge provide additional responsiveness. This is a guitar that looks, plays, and sounds great! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched  webtext-block--text\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStudio sound onstage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNormally you can best hear a guitar's subtle nuances when it's miked in the studio; but the A5R has Yamaha's SRT2 pickup system, which brings those wonderful acoustic sounds to the stage. With blend control, you can balance the output from the under-bridge piezo with the characteristics of either a Neumann U 67 large-diaphragm condenser or a Royer R-122 active ribbon microphone, creating your own unique tone with natural clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched  webtext-block--text\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eYamaha A5R Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"vertical\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6-string acoustic-electric with traditional western cutaway in cool vintage natural finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSolid Sitka spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides for bright, warm tone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA.R.E. wood torrefaction provides greater stability and attractive aged color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSRT2 system allows you to blend between piezo and SRT2 preamp signals for a personalized sound \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eString Type: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003eSteel\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eNumber of Strings: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eBody Shape: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003eDreadnought Cutaway\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eLeft-\/Right-handed: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003eRight-handed\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eColor: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003eVintage Natural\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eFinish: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003eGloss\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eTop Wood: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"table__cell\"\u003eSolid Sitka Spruce with A.R.E. treatment\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"table__row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"table__header\"\u003eBack \u0026amp;
