Yamaha unveiled the CSF-TA TransAcoustic parlor guitar, taking the affordability, portability, and premium sound and construction of the Yamaha CSF line of parlor guitars and adding the company’s TransAcoustic technology. The CSF-TA is among the newest additions to the Yamaha Hybrid Guitar category, joining the CG-TA, LL-TA, FG-TA and SILENT Guitars. The CSF-TA incorporates an actuator (or small switch) installed on the inner surface of the guitar back. When the instrument’s strings are played, they cause the actuator to vibrate, which is then conveyed to the guitar body and the air in and around the guitar. This unique technology gives a player’s music a spacious, concert-hall feel in any practice or performance space, stated the company. The CSF-TA has a solid Sitka spruce top mated to laminated mahogany back and sides, nato neck, rosewood fingerboard and bridge, abalone rosette, and the Yamaha SYSTEM70 TransAcoustic + SRT Piezo pickup system. The guitar is available in a gloss natural finish.
