Handcrafted Acoustic for a Lifetime of Playing
When you’re ready for an acoustic that will last a lifetime, the Yamaha LL56 Custom A.R.E. Original Jumbo is that kind of instrument. The LL56 is designed and constructed by master luthiers in Yamaha’s legendary Japanese facility. The LL56 begins with a stunning hand-selected rosewood body and Engelmann spruce top, both of which have been treated with Yamaha’s A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) technology, ensuring a balanced tone and long life. In addition, a 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck with Macassar ebony fingerboard offers incredible playability and response. Guitarists here at Sweetwater will attest, the LL56 is a true standout acoustic that brings a lifetime of playing enjoyment.
Innovative construction to build a better guitar
The great tone and smooth playability of the LL56 are due to Yamaha’s never-ending search for perfection. The A.R.E. process gives the LL56 a broken-in and aged tone. By controlling the atmospheric pressure, temperature, and humidity, the molecular properties of the wood are manipulated to mirror those of a guitar that has been played for years. The LL56 also features a modified non-scalloped bracing that enhances the guitar’s low end, while allowing the signature Yamaha high end to shine through. And the 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck, after reevaluation of string height and spacing, has a new design for improved playability.
Detailed quality appointments
The attention to detail on the LL56 is stunning. A gorgeous abalone/maple binding runs along the outline of the body as well as the headstock. In addition, an abalone rosette creates an awesome visual on or off the stage. An ebony bridge lends beautiful visual appeal as well as tone enhancement. And a genuine bone saddle and nut provide further aesthetic delight as well as tonal support. Finally, die-cast gold tuners on the LL56 provide rock-solid tuning as well as a classic vibe.
