Concert Electro-Acoustic Guitars

Concert electro-acoustic guitars have a compact body, steel strings and built-in electronics. Yamaha uses the Concert body throughout its FS series, represented here by the electro-acoustic FSX400, FSX800C and FSX5G versions. You will also find the Fender CC-60SCE, Bromo BAR5CE with its Hillside Concert body, and Yamaha TAS 3C. For the same shape without electronics, visit our Concert acoustic guitars page.

Steel-string Concert or nylon-string classical guitar?

Concert here refers to a body shape, rather than a classical guitar with nylon strings and a wide, flat neck. The guitars on this page have steel strings, a narrower neck and a brighter tone; the word Concert describes only their body shape. For classical guitars with a pickup, visit our classical guitars with pickup page.

What is Yamaha TransAcoustic?

The Yamaha TAS 3C and LS-TA feature TransAcoustic technology: an actuator inside the guitar makes the body vibrate, adding reverb and chorus directly from the body without an amplifier or cable. On stage, you can plug the guitar in just like a regular electro-acoustic.
