Review: Wanted to love it - Received guitar. Let it sit inside for 5-6 hours, then tuned it and tried to play it. Strings D,G,B and low E had major fret buzz in frets 1-4. The low e string couldn't even produce a tone....This one is going back. Too bad. I really wanted to love this guitar.The reverb and Chorus effects sound amazing. Review: HARD NO! - This is a beautiful guitar, and it plays beautifully. And when the TA is working... WOW! It's amazing. That said the whole electronic system is super wonky, it rattles, and my TA went out completely after 1 month on my 1st guitar and 1 day with my second guitar of the same model. In the end, the whole TA system is a bit gimmicky and wonky. I have just returned it, and instead went with the acoustic/electric guitar and an amp. I am hooked on being plugged in a bit! ## Features - Traditional Western body with cutaway - Onboard reverb and chorus effects with simple controls - Solid spruce top - Mahogany back and sides - Nato neck with rosewood fretboard ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09KQ3RL8B | | Back Material Type | Mahogany Wood | | Back material type | Mahogany Wood | | Body Material Type | Mahogany | | Body material | Mahogany | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Color | Vintage Tint | | Colour | Vintage Tint | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 5 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Instrument | Guitar | | Instrument Size | Dreadnought | | Item Dimensions | 103.8 x 12.9 x 41.2 centimeters | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 103.8L x 12.9W x 41.2H centimeters | | Item Type Name | Acoustic Guitar | | Item Weight | 454 Grams | | Manufacturer | Yamaha | | Manufacturer Part Number | FGC-TA VT | | Model Number | FGC-TA VT | | Neck Material Type | Nato Wood | | Neck material type | Nato Wood | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Operation Mode | Acoustic | | String Material Type | Phosphor Bronze | | Top Material Type | Spruce Wood | | Top material type | Spruce Wood | | UPC | 889025137461 | ## Product Details - **Back material type:** Mahogany Wood - **Body material:** Mahogany - **Brand:** Yamaha - **Colour:** Vintage Tint - **Top material type:** Spruce Wood ## Images ![FGC-TA Dreadnought Cutaway Transacoustic Guitar w/Chorus and Reverb, Vintage Tint - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41y+9jhz+aL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does a gig bag come with the ls-ta concert? everywhere else it comes with a gig bag at the same price. but amazon says nothing about it.** A: I know it does not say anything about it but yes I did receive one when I ordered it in February. There is no gig bag with the FSTA even when you buy it from a big box guitar store. Enjoy the LSTA as it is well worth it, I just was playing mine! I got it at a good price too! **Q: Does the pickup still work without a battery?** A: Since a standard 1/4" cable isn't powered, the guitar still needs the battery - the chorus and reverb will work through the PA or amp; so there's no need for extra effects. I add delay through my VOX amp. **Q: Would this benefit from a preamp, like the boss paraacoustic di, or ad 10? should it use an acoustic amp? or is it best just straight into pa?** A: none of these are wrong **Q: Anyone play the ll-ta vs ls-ta side by side? love to hear comments of the difference. thanks.** A: I purchased the LL-TA. It DID have a feedback issue. I contacted Yamaha and they approved a free repair on the Guitar. I think they did this for all LL-TA's, knowing there was a design problem. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ Wanted to love it *by S***D on 28 March 2023* Received guitar.
