Oh Crap!!! 10 minutes ago I didn't have a clue I needed a new acoustic!

[@rickcoffman9048]

😂😂

[@svetislavvidenovic7573]

Anyone watching this video: please don't think you can hear what these two guys are trying to present. YOU HAVE to listen this guitar live to hear, it is amazing and when you hear it, you just can't believe what you are hearing!

[@AgentSmith911]

Yamaha makes great products, it's quality whether you buy a guitar, piano, motorcycle or an outboard.

[@trentmason009]

Hoss Cartwright so true! Remarkable company with consistently great output. I've never seen a poorly made Yamaha anything.

[@hruaizelakisuke]

Exactly

[@maddoxdaehling5246]

Yeah at first I thought of them as a cheaper beginner company but as I played more and more I realized the truth.

[@rambleon2011]

Have a Yamaha bass, it plays and sounds great. Nathan East only plays Yamaha basses

[@rambleon2011]

Don’t forget all the pros that play Yamaha drums

[@TheVirtuoso883]

I like how as the effect turns up the smiles get bigger great piece of tech

[@tonyseelig5446]

Adam Purcell s

[@samratbose1972]

One of the best duos I hear in recent times. I eagerly wait for the acoustic paradisos. Please do more!!!!

[@stephenowen3383]

Yahama have beyond evolved the acoustic guitar with this. Great video so far and just pure wizardry especially considering it sounds that good. This and the silent guitar concept is just amazing.

[@misterknightowlandco]

you two are extremely talented players and this acoustic guitar is definitely on my buy list. cheers.

[@stuartcarden5402]

I was skeptical but I can't stop smiling! What a wonderful guitar! Well done Yamaha :D

[@cyrfung]

Really cool guitar. Watching the excitement on your faces makes me happy. :-)

[@mobinc.3365]

I bought two because of you love them videos you are absolutely great and information is stellar thanks again

[@sarcazmo]

Just based on their reaction you know these are some sweet guitars where the technology really is as advertised. Even if they were paid to say it was crap, you'd never believe it because of how much fun they're really having! Any product that elicits this type of emotional response from well versed players that have access to literally everything in the industry is truly high praise for yamaha.

[@semajjames7082]

very good observation and I agree with you!

[@spaley100]

Fantastic job guys. I thought I knew what my next guitar purchase was going to be until I watched this. Judging from your reactions to the Transacoustic, and your fabulous demo, this is the one for me (LS - concert body though). I agree with earlier posts that we would love to hear more from the two of you playing together. Please post some videos of you guys jamming on acoustics, You both play so well together and clearly have a lot of fun doing it. You're both an inspiration to those of us aspiring to learn to play guitar.

[@jazzlehazzle]

THANKYOU, finally the only review of this to demo its line out direct tone!

[@robinlaurenssen2741]

pete knows the most amazing chords..

[@MarianoPerez]

The effects are awesome, but forgetting about the effects for a moment, this guitar is one of the best sounding guitars I have ever played. I've played some Taylors, Martins, and Gibsons in the 3k to 5k and this guitar is right up there with them. I'd say it is a good compromise between a Martin and a Taylor. It would sit right in the middle in terms of tone. I hope Yamaha keeps selling them for about $1k.

[@GuyNamedSean]

Ah, the very best thing about Monday.

[@georgemooney4455]

GuyNamedSean amen to that!

[@cyberstace58]

That sounds wicked. I have the FSTA on Layaway as soon as i tried it when i bought my APX 1000 . They are addictive as soon as you make that first strum of magic.

[@TastyChevelle]

Yes Mick is back!

[@anthonyward8587]

Really love your videos guys, keep up the good work..tw..australia.

[@Aspire7]

Such tasteful players demoing those guitars.

[@mostlypostie1]

I need this guitar. I also need to be able to play as good as you guys. Great video!

[@justinhobgood4312]

petes playing always inspires me and puts a smile on my face

[@kennewton5877]

I bought one a couple of years ago. I’ve had a Gibson,a couple of Alvarez’s (one was a YARI),a Martin OM-1, but they didn’t beat the sound of this guitar. I guess I got one of those 1 in a 1000 guitars. I’ve gotten so many compliments from people. Even without the electronics on. I LOVE this Guitar. Her name is Sweetie. You can start playing and before you know it hours have passed.

[@DavidDyte1969]

Transacoustic Pradiso - whole new category.

[@rabinsinghlama1635]

Man I love this Yamaha transacoustic guitar

[@soulmate4971]

Cool sounding guitar. I orderd one after testing it at my music shop.👍🎸

[@dxcman1]

I own one of these and I love it. I also want to be half as good as Pete... Man he can just jump right into anything and make it sound good. Dang you Pete.. I mean that lovingly :-)

[@THYHASH]

amazing intro... sooo good

[@Disco_Eterno]

I'm crying, literally. The future has a name ... and it's Yamaha!

[@billd3692]

Amazing technology, never heard anything like it before!!!

[@RossDoherty23]

They sound amazing

[@actionoriented]

great playing gents - the player definitely makes the guitar :)

[@davidlegat4620]

what a lovely guitar the LL trans is, its worth paying extra for the solid rosewood version having said that, danish pete is such a good guitarist he could play a £50 acoustic and make it sound good well done guys

[@valueofnothing2487]

These things also sound great clean.

[@1973larryrichardson]

Can you just imagine how that would sound with the kind of natural chorus a 12 string has and then add that chorus and reverb? Sign me up!

[@michelsavoie6971]

I have an LL16, I love it. I play it live with no effects.

[@jemyfahrudinsyah]

I loved this guitar...

[@joehoppard814]

I have an LL16 ARE which is what Pete's playing. Such good value for money. Not sure I've played a better acoustic in that £600-£700 price range. Really good.

[@seniorscientist590]

Just arrived. Wow! Even more blown away in person. Why don't all guitars have the actuator? I also love the guitar, plays better than my Taylor 110 (and I LOVE my Taylor). Honestly can't imaging anything nplaying this easy and sounding as good as this guitar; it's nearly perfect, imo.

[@desdearibasiempre2545]

At the moment you tuch one of this yamaha trans acustic you will never will want an other brand. Thats it! They are amazing guitars even with out the trans. The trans onley makes it a biger and super instrumen. Giveitup for yamaha. Thats it!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 the best!

[@quentinutter5173]

The amount of eye contact makes me feel weird lol. Love Pete man. I keep coming back to this video deviating on buying one of these still lmao.

[@bstessman]

Whether by design or not the bluesy Sesame Street at 8:18 made my day.

[@artamussumatra6286]

Every ‘80s Hair Metal Guitarist’s acoustic wet dream come true! 😄

[@franzhutterer7250]

19:14 Mick.. Just ingenious, didn't see that coming :D

[@trentmason009]

I heart Yamaha. They don't make rubbish. Their outboards, guitars, motorcycles, and forklifts all are great. Amazing company! Also, the legitimate joy these guitars are inducing to two veterans who have tried a litany of axes, is proof to me that this guitar is bad ass.

[@s.pmurphy6083]

Trent Mason i own one of these guitars and for the price they sound amazing and thats not even turned on, the guitar itself is faultless with not one flaw on it, it really is a high end guitar at a low price

[@richardharrold9736]

I really want to hear you get two of these in and jam together! The reverb alone isn't great, but add in the chorus and it suddenly sounds lush!

[@52Tele]

you can't beat Mr. Mick at playing acoustic guitars.

[@YummyPork]

About 10 minutes in I started to get the feeling that Stairway to Heaven was not far away. Pretty neat idea and it seems Yamaha did a good job implementing this.

[@mikestrowbridge]

I was playing with an old Banjolin from FG Heiser. I was playing in my lap and it was dull and muted. I was getting kind of frustrated so I put it on the table. Then I plucked a string and it was loud. It was like the table became part of the instrument and a speaker for the instrument and it did. I was down a beach here in southern California when the cube street came out and a man was playing and signing through it and it sat on the cement. The cement became part of the amplification. There was an overhang and the sound was everywhere. Tiny amp. Last night I was looking at the wooden speaker boxes for iPhones here on KZbin. Yamaha likes to try new things. They are proven innovators.

[@BV_Beve]

Great intro guys, very nice. Great idea from Yamaha, cool tech. ... It's behind you ... oh no it isn't ... oh yes it is ..... practicing for the #AndertonsMusicCo panto Pete ?

[@Nigel-ie6gy]

Bought one last week 👍👍

[@ronaldomac4918]

Love your videos and I could be swayed by the Yamaha for sure................ Anyone know how long these guys have been playing, love your little jams man....

[@dgmisal1979]

Is a transacoustic guitar one that used to be electric, but had its pickups removed? Are there rules about which case it needs to use?

[@Strabbs12345]

I can't think of any way possible whereby I could add chorus and reverb to an acoustic guitar? Genius!

[@Robstafarian]

The circuit board is effectively a couple of effects pedals and a weak power amp, coupled to one or more tranducers which are attached to the guitar's back (on the inside, obviously). It surprises me that neither Mick nor Pete could figure that out.

[@GuyNamedSean]

Would it be possible for us to get an extended session of just Mick and Danish Pete playing guitars together?

[@Mr.M1STER]

Pete is a jam master. There is another video of him and another guy and they play "daddy's little cowboy" and it is fantastic.

[@TylerRolloGuitar]

Is this kind of like that Tone Wood amp addon thing? Similar technology?

[@teaboyuk]

impressive Mick! was that drop-D bit "riverwide" by Sheryl crow from the globe sessions album?

[@MikaTarkela]

Yes!! Mick!!

[@wielandt88]

Great - I'm getting one! Super arbejde i de her indslag Pete ;-)

[@mikethomson4290]

Ordered Mine!!

[@geecen]

My Yamaha LL-11e is still a great guitar.

[@MiegmaishMenas]

I’m eyeing this for so long already. One question to anyone who’s tried it (no shop within a 1000km has one) - does the concert size lose any of the magic?

[@rodmund83]

what IS that jazz blues turnaround that Pete does at 9:25. they've done it in a lot of vids including the the recent epiphoane semi vid?

[@jamiegpersonal]

Bought one of these last week. All I can say is....GET ONE. I can't put it down.

[@babetteleblanc7620]

It's about time someone did this. Yeah Yamaha! Stuff a compressor in it and a tuner and I'll be all set.

[@vaso0o0]

Make a video about the higher end Pacificas(611/612v)Great value for the money in my opinion

[@shoetree]

it's kind of like the "tonewood amp" system, lovely :)

[@TxiKhi_]

Nice video , me la compro mañana .

[@TheRealReTox]

Are you using a passive or active DI with those guitars? They sound great.

[@bertholdwennink9539]

I've been looking for the LL16TA. Have a question about the color. I like sand burst more than brown sunburst. Now i am doubting guys... is this te sand burst you two are playing or is it just the lights that make it look like sand burst? Can't find the LL16TA in sand burst anywhere..

[@valueofnothing2487]

There's also FG and FS (?) models other without solid back and sides. Careful with those.

[@sebastiancarrasco2308]

Have you guys seen the Hyvibe guitar? It has even more functions and effects

[@stevo4182]

Sounds great....but they’ve still got a live microphone in front of them....?

[@seniorscientist590]

Purchased again after canceling a previous order. Doesn't sound like it will be in stock in usa for several months though...

[@boxertwinjeff]

How would these LL Series stand up in a Tropical environment or would l be better off buying the laminated back & sides FG Series for Stability?

[@luke_reiss]

The whole acoustic guitar body becomes a loudspeaker, sending vibrations to all directions at the same time. Try to strum a open-G tuned acoustic guitar, not-transacoustic, and spin it. It also sounds amazing spinning. But anyway, don't pay attention to some nonsense I might write if I write too much and you're out of time. Cheers!!! Luke. P.S.: summing the acoustic strings vibration to that of the driver magnet, you get an acoustic doubling closer to the doppler effect than an electronic pedal would get (doppler needs more movement speed interference, but I would call it "micro-doppler", similar to reeds accelerating the sound inside an accordion or double strings on a 12-string guitar making wavefronts randomly collide due to proximity, as some sort of "forced-doppler"). That's interesting about those guitars you both just showed.

[@CheesyBaconable]

Sometimes I dream of danish Pete serenading me before I sleep, I look deep into his eyes. My parched lips open. "Pete I love you" He looks deep into my eyes, I can see his glorious pecs rippling beneath his golden hawaiian shirt. "I know...but this can't happen" Tear sting at my eyes as I know I will never have my own danish Pete. My own personal Acoustic Paradiso.

[@cyrfung]

Filthy Pete the Internet Peasent Er... the Internet is weird.

[@blueworm2341]

+Filthy Pete the Internet Peasent I hear you brother

[@TheRavenstrider]

Hahahahaha. Awesome.

[@jiggzzaw]

Dead 😂

[@MrMikepresley]

good job on the video

[@RockAndBlues7]

Anyone have any experience with Guild M-240E troubadour?

[@ky9999]

Im totally buying one.....when i have the moneyTT

[@ericplant5169]

I want one !!

[@kobykat1]

like others have mentioned, please also review the tonewood amp. Some of the videos are quite spectacular, but until it's played by you guys, we'll never hear it's true potential:).

[@grantburgh1]

Hooooooly shit Mick I'm stealing that dropped d open lick thingy

[@browser007200]

I met Bert J my sixties hero in the late 80's spent an hour and a few beers if Yamaha are good enough for Bert then thats a good reference !

[@courtmarr5714]

Awesome video, where can we find out more about you guys, solo albums, guitar work, other efforts? Also have you thought of doing guitar tutorials on youtube or something? You guys are both amazing musicians. thanks!

[@arifinkusuma1577]

Guitar tutorial would be great. Hear they are playing I want to play like them.

[@albertcorbeil1107]

Two thumbs up

[@1973larryrichardson]

Does it come in 12 string!?

[@paolo4002]

Hey Guys, how 'bout a show on some of those nice Gretsch (and the Washburn) resonators ?

[@ianward1308]

tennner?

[@fuelerr]

Can someone please tell me where Mick went?

[@teaboyuk]

boys, a bit of an opening jam based on "stay" by Lisa loeb? nice ;)

[@oldbandguy]

The ol clock on the wall...isn't working. Do I get a free guitar for pointing that out?

[@kobykat1]

I just purchased one of these but the delivery date is expected in 3-4 months due to CITES regulations. They really need to find a better solution to these regulations, especially if we want to continue with international trade. I've spoken to a number of dealers and there are many guitar players currently being affected. One guitar rep told me that due to CITES they're dealing with record low numbers on guitars being sent out; it's pretty bad.

[@scottkendall5655]

got my LL-TA about 6 weeks ago... never turn off the effects and other guitars seem to fall short without it. It is addicting.

[@styx85]

13:26 what's Mick playing here?

[@TheSkooterbords]

Please make an anderton's instrumental album or any kind of album with all the presenters.

[@droptuned83]

So these Yamaha guitars contain a magick tone fairy ?

[@ffdtsfsfgdfasdgsyhg]

reminds me a bit of those line6 variax guitars:))

[@richardharrold9736]

Mick, the Roland advertised by Jimmy Page was the G-707, not the GR-77 bass synth.

[@Strabbs12345]

Built in reverb then?
