Electro-Nylon guitar with flame maple back and sides

The Yamaha NTX1200R is a great looking instrument designed to offer a feel and playability closer to that of a steel stringed acoustic. This professional level model is the perfect choice for adding the warmth of nylon stirng acoustic tone to your music.

The NTX-1200 features A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) which is an original wood reforming technology developed by Yamaha. Through precise controll of temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, the molecular properties of the wood can be manipulated into a more acoustically ideal condition, similar to the molecular characteristics of woods in instruments that have been played for years. In NX Series guitars, this treatment results in a sound close to that of a vintage guitar that has been played for years. It produces a sharper tone while simultaneously controlling dissonance in the high range. Instruments that have undergone this process have received high marks from a great number of musicians. Their evaluations are nearly identical to those for guitars that have been played for years, and their comments often include terms such as "well settled", "mature", "warm", "excellent resonance", and "clear".
