Yamaha NTX1 Natural

Nylon-String Guitars for Modern Players

The NX Series® features contemporary body styles and proprietary preamp and pickup systems developed with the needs of live performers in mind. NX Series guitars will appeal to both accomplished nylon-string players in search of superior amplified sound, and electric and steel-string players seeking to explore the beauty of nylon-string sounds.

Comfortable for electric and steel-string players

• Slimmer neck profile and more narrow nut width than a typical nylon string

• Electric guitarists will find the thinline body more comfortable

• Oval rosette

Renowned Yamaha craftsmanship results in instruments of exceptional playability and tone—and four models incorporate the unparalleled Atmosfeel™ pickup system, which provides consistently superb sound regardless of volume level.

The NTX1 acoustic-electric nylon-string guitar’s modern looks and comfortable neck profile enable electric guitarists and steel-string players to easily explore the world of nylon-string playing, while strap buttons and exceptional amplified sound make it especially appealing to performing guitarists.

• Modern looks and comfortable feel

• Designed for electric and steel-string players

• Advanced preamp and pickup system with onboard tuner

• Solid Sitka spruce top

• Nato back, sides, and neck

• Walnut fingerboard

• Performance-friendly strap buttons

Style
With their sleek single-cutaway body shapes, appealing wood choices, colorful rosette patterns, and tasteful appointments, NX Series guitars are designed for contemporary players seeking the perfect combination of comfort and style.

Bracing
As a result of precise measurement and experimentation, several refinements were made that enhance low-frequency response without compromising durability. These changes were further refined to emphasize the natural characteristics of specific tonewoods, and optimized for each body silhouette.

Atmosfeel Pickup and Preamp System
The Yamaha Atmosfeel pickup system provides unparalleled amplified sound even at performance-level volumes. An undersaddle piezo pickup with individual string sensors captures only the mid and low-mid frequencies (eliminating the characteristic brittleness of piezo pickups), while a unique synthetic sheet transducer captures the highs, and an internal microphone captures overall body resonance and “airiness.”

Atmosfeel Controls
The simple and intuitive Atmosfeel preamp controls let you blend the microphone sound into the premixed pickup sound.

These simplified controls mean that guitarists are able to dial in the desired settings quickly and without the need to actually look at the controls.
