Yamaha LL26 ARE Original Jumbo - Natural

Exquisite Jumbo Acoustic from Yamaha
The Yamaha LL26 ARE is a true send-up to vintage design, tone, and feel. Utilizing Yamaha's unique ARE technology, Japanese luthiers have constructed a work of art in the LL26 ARE. Featuring a solid rosewood body with a solid Engelmann spruce top, the LL26 produces gorgeous tone that is balanced, full, and unique. A 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck with ebony fingerboard adds to this stellar instrument's exquisite tone and playability. High-end, detailed appointments such as a maple binding and an ebony bridge support and enhance the rich tone of this stellar acoustic — added touches we really appreciate here at Sweetwater.




Stellar tonewood pairing
The tonewood combination of rosewood and spruce has won over countless players who have been enthralled by the incredible blending of the rich low end from rosewood and the high and midrange clarity of spruce. The resulting tone is truly something that has to be experienced, and the LL26 lets you do just that. Wide-open strums, picking, and fingerstyle approaches on this Jumbo-style acoustic all translate beautifully through the tonewood pairing of the LL26. And the 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck and ebony fingerboard offer the kind of feel and response that make hours of playing and exploring seem effortless.




Innovative construction to build a better guitar
The great tone and smooth playability of the LL26 ARE are due to Yamaha's never-ending search for perfection. The recently developed ARE (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) process gives your guitar a broken-in and aged tone. By controlling the atmospheric pressure, temperature, and humidity, the molecular properties of the wood are manipulated to mirror those of a guitar that has been played for years. Each L Series guitar also sports modified non-scalloped bracing that enhances the guitar's low end. And the 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck, after reevaluation of string height and spacing, has a new design for improved playability. The Yamaha LL26 utilizes newly developed advances in guitar construction to bring you an amazingly playable and great-sounding instrument.
