Yamaha CSF Series Parlor Guitar, Solid Spruce Top, Undersaddle Pickup, Trans Black, W/Bag CSF1M

Yamaha Compact, Parlor Size Guitar With Solid Spruce Top, Mahogany Back & Sides, Trans Black W/Bag

Description:

"CSF is compact without compromise," said Dave Miner, product marketing manager, Yamaha Guitar Group. "We reintroduced the series in 2018 because of the interest in parlor-sized guitars and expanded the lineup last year with a TransAcoustic model. We hope these two new CSF1M finishes will help even more players find a perfect fit for the sound and style they want, and for wherever they play."

Special forward-shifted scalloped bracing enhances the resonance of the Yamaha CSF1M guitar's solid Sitka spruce top, increasing bass response, while its mahogany back and sides impart a natural warmth and richness. Despite its compact size and shorter length, which some players find more comfortable to play than larger instruments, the CSF1M has a surprisingly big and rich acoustic sound, with an undersaddle SRT piezo pickup for plugging in onstage or in the studio.

Combining the portability of a travel guitar with the focused tonal characteristics of a parlor guitar, the CSF1M is an ideal choice for both the road and the destination.

Despite their compact size, which some guitarists find more comfortable to play than larger instruments, CSF Series guitars feature increased bass response and overall loudness resulting in a surprisingly full, rich and vibrant sound.

The Secret to Great Resonance

CSF Series guitars utilize scalloped bracing, which delivers rich, full-bodied resonance comparable to that of a full-size guitar. Additionally, the use of forward-shifted construction maintains the strength of the body while maximizing the resonance of the guitar top.

Durable Gig Bag

CSF Series guitars come with a durable deluxe gig bag for easy transport.

Passive Undersaddle Pickup

CSF1M and CSF3M are equipped with undersaddle piezo pickups. With an individual sensor under each string, these pickups deliver superb sound when connected to an amplifier or PA system. The passive design, inspired by our L Series acoustics, doesn’t require batteries. It’s a simple and convenient solution for the studio or stage.
