Yamaha LS16M ARE Solid Engelmann / Mahogany Concert Acoustic w/ Pickup

The Yamaha LS16M ARE is a premium concert-sized acoustic-electric guitar that delivers rich, well-balanced tone and outstanding playability. Featuring a solid Engelmann spruce top with Yamaha’s Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment, it offers an aged, open sound straight out of the box. The solid mahogany back and sides add a rich low-end, while the modified non-scalloped bracing enhances projection. A comfortable 5-ply mahogany and rosewood neck ensures smooth playability, making it ideal for fingerstyle players. Equipped with Yamaha’s SRT Zero Impact passive pickup system, the LS16M ARE delivers a natural, dynamic amplified tone while maintaining a clean aesthetic. Includes a hard bag for protection.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Yamaha LS16M ARE is the perfect choice for discerning guitarists who want classic tone, premium materials, and effortless playability in a concert-sized body.
