YAMAHA 2008 LJ6

Product Description

YAMAHA / 2008 LJ6

The LJ6 carries the bloodline of YAMAHA's top acoustic line, the "L Series," and is popular for its excellent balance and high playability.
Are you drawn to the rich tone of quality solid Engelmann spruce, yet hesitant about the risk of handling a high-end Japanese handmade model roughly on demanding stages, or unsatisfied with the stiff, not-yet-opened-up sound typical of a new guitar?

Even with a brand-new current model, you face the enormous amount of time it takes for the wood to release its true potential, and it is in the nature of working players to want the rich resonance and response of a guitar that has been played in.
Yet whether to spend on an expensive high-end model or an old YAMAHA, or to compromise on sound and break in a brand-new model from zero, is a very difficult choice for guitarists looking for a reliable partner they can use hard on the job.

- A perfectly balanced medium-jumbo body for any playing style
The original LJ shape is slightly smaller than the LL and fuller in volume than the LS.
It is easy to hold and fits the body comfortably when played seated, while delivering a rich volume approaching a dreadnought, adapting flexibly to every playing style from powerful strumming to delicate fingerpicking.

- The resonance of Engelmann spruce brought out by over 15 years
The top is solid Engelmann spruce with a fine, elegant resonance, and the back and sides are rosewood for deep lows.
More than 15 years have passed since it was built in 2008, and as moisture has left the wood, it has gained full overtones and a quick response that a new guitar doesn't have.
A superb sound that outputs every nuance of the player - truly the sound of a guitar that has matured.

- YAMAHA's sturdy playability that holds up on demanding jobs
A strong multi-piece neck that withstands years of use, and the stable condition produced by YAMAHA's world-class precision assembly.
Its greatest appeal is tough practicality: without worrying about the excessive delicacy of an old guitar, you can play it hard as your main instrument at today's demanding live shows and recording sessions, or out on the street.

The 2008 LJ6 brilliantly combines a superb tone inheriting the DNA of the higher models with practicality that reduces the burden on the player.
With a well-matured, ready-to-go voice, it is the best possible choice for players looking for a reliable partner they can use without worry.

Please experience for yourself, with your own strumming, the rich resonance grown over more than 15 years and the solid potential YAMAHA is proud of.
