With its solid Engelmann Spruce top and solid Rosewood back and sides, the LS16 exudes a timeless elegance that sets it apart from the rest.
What truly sets the Yamaha LS16 A.R.E. apart is its new non-scalloped bracing design, meticulously engineered to deliver a balanced and captivating tone.

Enhancing its already impressive features, the LS16 is treated with Yamaha's proprietary Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) technology.

The SRT Zero Impact Pickup system is a newly developed passive type pickup configuration designed to minimize the pickup's impact on the tone and traditional appearance of the instrument. The system utilizes individual piezoelectric elements for each string to faithfully reproduce the dynamic sound of the L Series and give the instrument outstanding presence when playing in a band.
