From the manufacturer

The 2017 Yamaha A-Series Guitars

Designed to be the ideal performance acoustic guitar, the Yamaha A-Series is crafted from the ground up to be perfectly suited to life on the road. With natural, dynamic plugged-in tone and stage-ready simplicity from the new SRT2 pickup system; played-in comfort out of the box thanks to hand-rolled fingerboard edges on a straight taper neck; a custom designed scalloped bracing pattern for a powerful, expressive acoustic tone and Yamaha's legendary road-ready construction, the A-Series has the guitar to take your playing to the next level.

Comfortable Neck Profile

The new A-Series guitars feature a straighter neck taper and hand-rolled fingerboard edges.

Simple and Distinctive Looks

The A-Series uses simple, organic design features that capture the warmth of wood and provide an elegant appearance.

Elixir Strings

A-Series guitars are equipped with Elixir NANOWEB 80/20 Bronze Light strings to deliver a lively tone and extended life.


Mahogany or Rosewood

Rosewood models offer well-balanced tone from low to high, while mahogany has a warm, focused mid-range with a quick response. Vintage Natural and Tobacco Sunburst finishes are available with either wood-type.

Powerful Acoustic Sound

A new sound has been developed for the A-series that is louder and stronger in the low-mid ranges, thanks to cutting-edge acoustic analysis technology developed by the Yamaha R&D Division.Their analysis led to the development of the new scalloped bracing for the top board and shorter bracing than normal for the back board.

Treating the tops with Yamaha's exclusive A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) process gives the instrument a rich, vintage quality tone, making it sound as though you'd been playing it for years from the very first moment you pick an A-series guitar up.

There's nothing I don't like about this A3M guitar. I received it 12 hours ago, and I must have played 5-6 hours....I just can't put it down! The look, the feel, the sound....all of it. I have been guitar hunting for a while, and I'd set my mind on getting a Yamaha. If I could avoid spending too much money, I would, so I ordered 3 different guitars: a FGC-TA ...it arrived with terrible fret buzz and I returned it. Then I got the popular FGX830C....It arrived in a completely destroyed box with the guitar covered in dust. I tried it and really liked it. The 830 offers great value, and it IS a good guitar. BUT! Today the A3M arrived....and boy oh boy !!! Ok. So, the A3M comes with a bag and costs $ 1000. The 830 is about $ 550 but then you have to pay $ 150 for a case; so figure $ 700. Is the A3M worth the extra $ 300? Oh yes - you better believe it is. I would say it is worth A LOT more than that. Normally my fingers would be hurting like H... after playing acoustic for 5-6 hours...but they are not hurting at all! The rolled edges and the butter-smooth feeling of the A3M strings and fretboard....I am blown away (can you tell?). Yamaha...thank you for making such a guitar available at such an attractive price point....this guitar easily competes with guitars costing 2-3 times more. I had really hoped to spend a little less money, but now that I got it....totally worth it. This guitar is gonna stay with me.April 11th UPDATE:Plugged the guitar into my Boss Katana 100 Artist amp yesterday evening......no sound.This is a sad day. Witing for Yamaha to respond. I may have to return this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent first impressions
Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2023
So far excellent. Excited to get my new toy.

Delivery by Amazon and box was in good shape. It comes in a very sturdy soft case with good padding. Would have liked to seen extra padding between the box and neck, but that's just me being a little risk focused.

Tuned up quickly as the strings were slightly loose for storage.

Initial sound seems very deep with lots of resonance. Haven't plugged it in yet to test the electronics.

Stay tuned for more feedback :)
