YAMAHA CSF 1M VINTAGE NATURAL

Solid Sitka Spruce Top & Mahogany Body
The Yamaha CSF1M features a solid sitka spruce top that produces a broad dynamic range and yields a crisp and articulate tone, making the CSF1M versatile to play. Its solid sitka spruce top offers a sparkling high response and a tight, clear attack, perfect for pronounced players. The solid top is attached to rich-sounding mahogany back and sides which produce a resonant distinct warmth. Additionally, used as back and side panels, the mahogany delivers a meaty mid-range, producing punchy, woody tones with plenty of depth and complexity that will please most playing styles. This sonically-pleasing mixture of tonewoods is well-known among guitarists as the ‘classic’ acoustic sound, providing a versatile, bright and lively sound with a powerful response.
Compact & Road-Ready Travel Guitar
With a compact folk styled body and 600 mm scale length, the Yamaha CSF1M offers a comfortable playing experience and a size that’s perfect for taking on the road. The folk body is equipped with new scalloped bracing to ensure a louder and more powerful acoustic performance that belies its size. Additionally, the tone produced is full, rich and resonant with a versatile sonic-footprint, perfect for numerous genres and playing styles. This truly stunning electro acoustic travel guitar from Yamaha is perfect for taking on the road, to festivals, camping, and summer evening campfire jams with fellow musicians; watch the evening as it sets an idyllic stage for CSF1M’s natural acoustic voice to come alive.
Nato Neck & Rosewood Fingerboard
Constructed from nato, the Yamaha CSF1M’s neck offers similar tonal properties to mahogany, adding warmth, resonance to the guitar’s sound. Additionally, nato’s nature provides the player with a quick and dynamic response, perfect for unleashing true potential and receiving a superb response in return. The Yamaha’s nato neck is topped with a rosewood fingerboard that adds warmth and clarity to the overall tone whilst providing a smooth, energetic playing experience.
Newly Designed Bracing
The Yamaha CSF1M features newly designed scalloped bracing, which not only enhances the guitar’s overall sound but reinforces the structure. Bracing is important for a guitar’s overall structure, as the brace prevents the guitar from collapsing under string tension while also allowing for the top to vibrate more freely. Furthermore, with Yamaha’s newly designed scalloped bracing, the CSF1M benefits from a louder, richer, and enhanced acoustic voice.
Piezo Pickup
Equipped with a passive piezo pickup, the player can benefit from the simple plug-in and play option. The pickup faithfully projects the CSF1M’s natural acoustic voice clearly, and purely, project every nuance of a player’s individual style. With this, the Yamaha CSF1M is ideal for impromptu gigs whilst on the road, as well as being ideal for the busking musician needing a classic sound and a comfortable playing experience.
