Yamaha acoustic guitar STORIA I

STORIA I: Clear grain and rich tone. Clear colors are accents that will brighten up your room Small body size that is easy to hold Spruce veneer is used for the front plate, and mahogany is used for the side and back panels Off-white dial with chic light blue inner color Passive pickup mounted on the undersaddle

■The exterior design of each of the 3 models stands out for their individuality Each of the 3 STORIA models differs in the color of the front plate and the texture of the paint finish, making them unique and eye-catching. Labels representing the model name and part number are generally affixed to the inside of the sound hole, but STORIA applied an inner color that matches the color of the front plate and screen-printed the model name. STORIA I combined a chic light blue inner color on the off-white front plate; STORIA II combined a bright ultramarine inner color on the natural front plate; and STORIA III combined a deep burgundy inner color with a chocolate brown dial. The sound hole also has an inlay with a one-point accent that blends in with the top color and inner color. The semi-gloss paint STORIA I and STORIA II have an exterior where you can feel the warmth of wood even more, combined with a smooth texture. In addition to the newly designed open gear type pegs, various parts such as strap pins have been unified based on champagne gold color. Brass specifications are used for the string stop pins.

■Achieves high playability High playability has been achieved by combining a thin and small fork-type body with a short string length. The neck uses a 634mm scale that is slightly shorter than normal, and along with the thin neck shape, it is very easy to grip, so even those starting out with the guitar can use it with confidence. In STORIA II, the binding on the front plate was eliminated, and the edges were chamfered. It gives an impression of its rounded appearance and softens the feel of the arm when playing.

■Sound variations with different characters & passive pickups for all models The spruce top STORIA I features a well-grained, bright sound. The mahogany top STORIA II and STORIA III have both warmth and fullness, yet each produced different sound characteristics depending on the difference in paint finish. A passive pickup that does not require a power source is built under the saddle. Since a preamp or battery box is not attached to the main body, the body is the same as a normal acoustic guitar without impairing the sound, and can be connected to an amplifier etc. as needed, so it can be used in a wide range of performance scenes.
