Product Description

Yamaha TAS1E TransAcoustic - Play Anywhere, Sound Incredible

The Yamaha TAS1E TransAcoustic Guitar is the ideal entry point for players who want studio-quality effects without an amp or extra gear. Powered by Yamaha's proprietary TransAcoustic technology, string vibrations are converted into electrical signals, processed through built-in Reverb and Chorus effects, and fed back into an internal actuator — so the natural acoustic tone and effected sound resonate together, directly from the guitar body. No cables. No pedals. Just plug-free, professional sound.

Built on a compact concert-style body with a solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the TAS1E delivers clear, focused tone with warmth and projection that exceeds its entry-level price. The rosewood fingerboard offers smooth, comfortable playability across all styles — from fingerpicked arpeggios to open-chord strumming — while the satin body finish and champagne-gold open-gear tuners give the guitar a polished, stage-ready look. Three striking finish options — Natural, Sandburst, and Marine — let players find a style that's uniquely their own.

Versatility is built in. Plug into any amp via the LINE OUT jack and the TAS1E instantly becomes a fully capable acoustic-electric guitar, ready for rehearsals, outdoor performances, and live stage settings. Powered by two AA batteries, the setup stays minimal and portable — no charging required, no power outlets needed.

The TAS1E also comes with Elixir NANOWEB 80/20 Bronze Light strings pre-installed for a bright, long-lasting tone straight out of the box, along with a hard gig bag for easy transport.

Whether you're a beginner discovering TransAcoustic playing for the first time or a seasoned guitarist looking for a versatile, travel-friendly instrument, the Yamaha TAS1E delivers authentic tone, effortless built-in effects, and everyday versatility — all in one beautifully designed acoustic guitar.
