2017 Model FS-TA

YAMAHA / 2017 Model FS-TA

"Playing at home just doesn't feel quite right."
The time spent picking up your guitar in your living room or bedroom, not on stage.
For guitarists, this is both the longest and most important time.
Yet many players face the same challenge.

No matter how good the guitar, the sound in a room just never feels quite satisfying.
What they really want is a sound with more spaciousness.
A sound that envelops you, like resonating in a concert hall.
Yamaha's "TransAcoustic" made that wish a reality.

This time, we've received the 2021 FS-TA.
Within the TransAcoustic series, this model features Yamaha's unique folk-sized design.
The moment you hold it, you'll notice its exquisite size balance.
Not as large as a dreadnought, yet it delivers ample volume.
It fits naturally to your body, making it less tiring to play for long periods,
making it a guitar you'll find yourself picking up more often.

Its most distinctive feature is the actuator installed inside the body.
Unlike conventional pickups, this system vibrates the guitar body itself
to add reverb and chorus effects directly to the raw sound.
In other words, the sound expands into the space the moment you start playing, without needing an amp or Effector.

Simply turn the knob lightly to access
you can access the soft reverberation of "ROOM,"
or the deeply enveloping "HALL"
Both emerge with astonishingly natural resonance.

It's not an artificial effect; it feels like the guitar suddenly started playing in a "good room."
The player themselves will be the most surprised.

And another key feature is that you can send the effect-processed signal directly to your amp.
This reduces gear load and simplifies setup. Yet the sound quality remains exceptionally high.
This is an invention only possible because of Yamaha's years of accumulating vast amounts of acoustic data.

In fact, when this series first launched, orders flooded in worldwide, and for a time, production couldn't keep up with the demand.
It's a model that changed the very "experience" of the guitar as an instrument.

The very act of playing guitar has become far richer than before.
The FS-TA is the instrument that quietly brings about this change.
Words alone can hardly convey it.
That's precisely why we invite you to experience this "mysterious resonance" for yourself.
