The Yamaha TAG3 C TransAcoustic is an innovative acoustic guitar that combines authentic acoustic sound with advanced digital features. Released in 2016, it enhances natural sound with effects, requiring no amplifier or cables. The process works by converting the vibrations of the strings into electrical signals, which are then processed for effects and sent to actuators inside the guitar. These actuators produce vibrations that travel through the guitar's body, creating effects directly from the instrument. The natural sound and effects resonate together, delivering a rich sound experience. The second-generation TAG3 C model has further refined the original TransAcoustic concept, featuring a cutaway dreadnought design and a natural finish.
