Yamaha LJ16 ARE Solid Engelmann / Rosewood Medium Jumbo Acoustic w/ Pickup

The Yamaha LJ16 ARE is a premium medium jumbo acoustic-electric guitar designed for players who demand rich, dynamic tone and modern playability. With a solid Engelmann spruce top featuring Yamaha’s Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment, it delivers a warm, open sound with enhanced resonance. The solid rosewood back and sides provide depth and clarity, while the modified bracing pattern ensures excellent balance across the tonal spectrum. The 5-ply mahogany and rosewood neck offers a stable, comfortable grip, and the passive SRT Zero Impact pickup captures the guitar’s natural tone for stage and studio use. Includes a hard bag for protection.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Yamaha LJ16 ARE is perfect for players looking for a versatile, great-sounding acoustic-electric that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern performance.
