Introducing the Yamaha A5M ARE Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Vintage Natural finish, now available at Irvine Art and Music. Crafted with precision and passion, this guitar offers a vintage aesthetic coupled with modern innovation, delivering outstanding sound and playability for musicians of all levels.
Vintage Vibes, Modern Performance The Yamaha A5M combines vintage charm with contemporary engineering to offer a guitar that resonates with character and versatility. Its solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides produce a rich, warm tone with enhanced volume in the low-mid ranges, thanks to new scalloped bracing. Handmade in Japan with meticulous attention to detail, this guitar boasts premium build quality and exceptional craftsmanship.
A.R.E. Wood Torrefaction Experience the benefits of Yamaha’s A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) wood torrefaction, which gives the guitar top greater stability and an aged, vintage hue. The high-heat treatment removes moisture and volatiles, resulting in a top that resonates naturally and beautifully. The A5M captures the essence of a well-loved vintage guitar with its tonal maturity and aesthetic appeal.
SRT2 Pickup System Equipped with Yamaha’s innovative SRT2 pickup system, the A5M delivers studio-quality sound onstage. The system allows you to blend between the under-saddle piezo pickup and the modeling of either a Neumann KM 56 small-diaphragm condenser mic or a Royer R-122 active ribbon mic. With volume, treble, and bass controls, as well as auto feedback reduction, you can sculpt your tone with precision and clarity.
Quality Tonewoods, Exceptional Sound The combination of a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides ensures a balanced and articulate sound across the entire tonal spectrum. From bright highs to resonant lows, the Yamaha A5M offers a dynamic range that suits a variety of playing styles and musical genres.
Traditional Design, Contemporary Appeal With its traditional western cutaway and elegant vintage natural finish, the Yamaha A5M exudes timeless style and sophistication. The ebony fingerboard and bridge add to its allure, while the innovative brace design brings a touch of modernity to its classic silhouette.
