YAMAHA / LS36ARE

The LS36ARE is a small-bodied acoustic guitar with excellent sound balance. The top is made of solid Englemann spruce treated with Yamaha's proprietary ""A.R.E."" technology, resulting in a rich tone that sounds like it's been played for years. The entire body is lacquered, and the maple and abalone double binding give this guitar a luxurious look.

■Using the skills and experience of our master guitar makers, this guitar reproduces an unparalleled dynamic range and volume balance. From the handcrafted inlays to the ultra-thin lacquer finish, the L36 Series' concept of ""luxury"" is clearly expressed.
■A.R.E. [Acoustic Resonance Enhancement] is a wood modification technology independently researched and developed by Yamaha. Applying this technology to the guitar's body wood creates a rich, mellow tone reminiscent of years of playing. By precisely controlling temperature, humidity, and air pressure without the use of any chemicals, we achieve changes in a short period of time similar to those experienced over time after sawing. This improves sound transmission and vibration efficiency, promotes the extension of mid- and low-frequency components, and accelerates the attack and decay of high-frequency components. This results in a well-balanced, mature, warm sound with fewer harsh overtones.
■ The non-scalloped X-bracing structure used in the ""L Series"" has been further refined using the latest analytical and modeling technology and expert craftsmanship. It maximizes the natural resonance of the wood, delivering a deeper, richer mid- and low-range tone.
■ Detail improvements have been made to string spacing, string height, fingerboard binding, neck taper, and more. A new neck shape has been created to better fit guitarists. The newly designed neck provides a stable grip and smooth playability from high to low positions. Additionally, the neck-body joint design previously used in custom models has been adopted for the L36 Series and L26 Series. The larger joint area improves the efficiency of sound vibration transmission, resulting in deeper sustain.
■ All models feature a double-action truss rod that applies force in both forward and backward bow directions, allowing for more precise neck adjustment.
■ The lacquer finish is carefully applied in multiple layers by skilled technicians. This finish maximizes the wood's vibration transmission capabilities, resulting in quick sound response and rich resonance.
