The Yamaha CSF1M is a parlor-style acoustic guitar that harks
back to the early twentieth century, when traveling guitarists
roamed the country, playing for whatever audiences they could
find and sitting in with players of other acoustic instruments of
the day — violin, banjo, and mandolin. It conjures this period in
American music beautifully — and at a great price. With a solid
Sitka spruce top, the CSF1M has a robust projection and a
beautiful tone, kicking out pristine high end and stellar
midrange. Laminate mahogany back and sides add a layer of low-end
warmth for great tonal balance. A rosewood fingerboard and bridge
also add tonewood depth. When you are ready to plug in, the CSF1M
comes with a passive SRT Zero-Impact piezo pickup for gorgeous
amplified acoustic tone.
