I’m 78 and falling in love again. Time to cut down on something and start saving up 😂 great video by the way. Amazing sounds! 🖖🎶🎶🎶👀
How many months does it take for you to save the enough money man
@ quite a few months even if I can start to save. Probably 6 to 9 months if all goes well.
@@gordonmitchell729 Great! Wish you good luck and get your guitar.
@ thank you friend. It’s something good to look forward to 🖖👀
@@gordonmitchell729 yeah, absolutely
I have the Yamaha FGC-TA and thought I had gone to heaven when I purchased it. Now they come out with this one.
same here....i have the fg-ta and have to get the tag..i have the ac3r and ac5r and wish the tag was rosewood
I have an LL-TA. It's an absolutely amazing acoustic.. best guitar I own (I own multiple Taylors, a martin, and a Breedlove)
Without effects it's my first choice, with effects it's my obvious choice.
Waiting on my tag3c..
Ii will order one of these to my countryhouse, image sitting on the patio and looking out to the sea in the summer breeze and having one of these guitars...
It will be a good tune and that is what we are all after!
Will buy it, no questions asked!
Dagan , you convinced me!
Yamaha Guitars have hit it out of the park.
The vintage Yamaha electric guitars are way underrated, too. They kill Gibsons.
Yeah, for my part when I got mine, I smiled after the first G-chord...
This is probably the best song writing or guitar learning tool!
This is amazing from someone who actually got one at the moment!
Bought one last week. A guitarist wet dream
Thanks Dagan - Always the best guitar demo's on TH-cam- I have one the original transacoustic guitars & it's always the acoustic guitar I grab even though I have more expensive options - 200% getting this TAG3-C - One problem - what finish ? Both amazing!
Nice review. But one of the best features you didn't mention. The dot touch thing on the cutaway. Can be setup to be the loop stop. So instead of having to press the button on top on the 1, to set the end of your phrase, you can tap the dot. Much easier to get the timing right.
The dot below the strings is actually set up to be the loop stop by default.
My LL-TA is an incredible guitar, with or without the TA features. Everyone that picks it up is in love. And that's before I even turn on the effects haha! I may have to treat myself to another....
Love my LL-TA too. Looking forward to playing one of these. I'm interested in how good it sounds on its own, I don't think it has the A.R.E. top, wonder if the sound will be as good? Or will it be more like fg/fs range? It does have solid back and sides tho
Same deal.. LL-TA is the best guitar I've played. I'm probably going to sell it to make room for this one though
You are the best guitar demo personality in the business. And your musical core is strong. Pretty melodies and chug is at eirher side of the bell curve with authority.
Beato should interview you!!!
You desreve it. I feel the love you have for the instrument. It comes through all the time.
Bless you,
Cheers
I've played these at GC, and you have to spend twice as much on a Taylor or Martin to find one that's as nice to play. That's before you account for the effects.
I have 2 Yamaha acoustic guitars. One is the first guitar I owned and was bought by my mother for me. It’s a FG-160, 1971 model I think. My parents friends who played music every weekend called it a “poor man’s Martin”. Awesome guitar. My other is an acoustic electric cutaway that I bought 5 or 6 years ago. Can’t remember the model but it sounds and plays great. Needless to say, I’m a big fan of Yamaha.
There are many many good guitars, and Yamaha is just one of them.
I caught that John Mayer in there! That’s a deep cut mate! Well done and great review! FedEx shows mine should be arriving tomorrow. Can’t wait!!!
I have a FG5X on my wishlist with some gear. Now I just think about „just“ getting this guitar. This looks like a dream guitar for me. Just need for the release here! 😂
The built in looping function looks awesome! That sold it to me! I like that the loop can be stopped with the touch pad on top of the guitar.
I had the old model and really liked it. I may have to get one of these, though. Badass playing and demo as always.
I love the idea of this guitar. I owned a Hyvibe a couple years ago that I ended up returning because it had bugs in it, and plugged in sounded terrible. I like Yamahas, I had a 12 string I played for years and it was great! But for me right now this tag3c is a lot of money, and the one thing that bothers me about all the reviews I’ve seen is no one has plugged it into an amp or pa. My main reason for buying this would be to play it live plugged in. So until I see some reviews with it plugged in, and hear how it sounds, or they have it available at a music store in my area to demo. I won’t be rushing out to buy it. Sounds great unplugged, but I have a couple acoustics that sound great unplugged, but sound terrible when plugged in.
This is the first acoustic guitar to absolutely blow me away! I want one.
Looks and sounds amazing! 🎸🎸🤘🏻🤘🏻
I'm holding my Yamaha FG-TA right now, and I can't stop smiling after hearing 3:30 😆❤.... Can't afford this TAG3 but I like to imagine mine is just as luxurious😂.
I will be buying .Just have to decide on which color
I have Yamaha Transacoustic FG-TA wonderful instrument !
But new model with Looper is really something😮
Wauwwww!!! Just wauwwww!!!
Nice sounds to them, I may need one of em
Great Guitar 🎉
I did not have such g.a.s. since … well the original TransAcoustic. Which I still consider my favorite material purchase.
LL-TA is my prized possession :D
Noooooooo I don’t want another guitar but I need this one 💔
Samesies
It's the opposite to me... I don't need another guitar, but I want this one.
Wow, I can get a good acoustic tone by simply turning off the effects now😉
The looper seems interesting.
The actuators add to the acoustic tone in a pretty natural way. I love my LL-TA without effects, but with effects it's a magical beast
Wish i could afford this :D I have a FG-TA and love it
It's like a built-in Tonewood amp. I need one 😄
It's really not.
Tonewood amps are a true gimmick. The built in actuators in Transacoustics produce much better sound.
My goodness that was wonderful. Amazing playing Dagan. Guitar and pedals all-in-one.
I imagine that the app is foot pedal controllable somehow? Switching loops with a pedal while playing live would knock it out of the park!😊
I love my fg-ta
This one better 🥹
@@abangsenang8705 it's also more than 2 times the price
I like everything about it except the rechargeable battery. It’s convenient until 10 years from now when it no longer holds a charge and you can’t find a replacement.
It wouldn't surprise me if it was just a pack made from a couple of 18350 cells or something as pretty much everything else is these days if it doesn't have to fit inside a compact device. I suppose the absolute worst case is that you can't find a replacement and in a decade or so you're left with a superb sounding all solid wood acoustic, so not the worst thing that can happen!
There will always be a way to find the battery, especially if the guitar becomes really popular and they sell a lot of them.
What else do you want to do? Slap a reactor on it?
The designer of the guitar said they needed the extra power from the rechargeable battery in order to improve the actuator performance compared to the older model.
It should be a few 21700s that can be swapped in the middle of a show. The flashlight community has so many examples of this being effective for high power consumption devices.
The touchpad also stops the loop recording so you don’t need to reach all the way on top to finish your foundation loop.
When are PMT getting stocks in please?
Brilliant guitar! But it would be better if the proprietary connector is plain reliable USB-C
Could you launch the looper when you play just with touch the circle ? For not have to launch in the begin of the song ?
Brilliant! Will buy one immediately here in Germany.
Any other guitar with something in like the looper builtin here?
Hello. I am thinking of buying my 1st guitar. So can anyone tell me the difference between semi acoustic and transacoustic
FYI: A TransAcoustic Guitar is an Acoustic Guitar that identifies as Electric.
Epic!
Waiting for them to come to OZ.
(Edit) $4k
i wiah they made loop for classic guitar
A question please. Does it actually amplifies as well?? I ask this because I’m 50% deaf and I need an amp to amplify my acoustic guitar to hear it properly. This would be a great solution if it did.
You can plug it into an amplifier and use the effects along, I believe.
@@EthanPhangcho Yes, that much is clear. I was just hoping the some amplifying came from the mechanisms in side the body as well. But I guess not.
@@nelisv7218with the effects turned on you can hear a volume level difference in the video against when he switches it off, and he says it has speakers in the guitar body. How much extra volume it might produce is not clear, you could maybe ask the question to Yamaha .. or better still wait until these are in the shops and go try one to see. Otherwise as Ethan says it has an output jack so you can also plug it into an amplifier but having everything built in for convenience is really its strong selling point.
What is the price ?
We got Bluetooth and onboard effects built into acoustic guitars before gta6
Unavailable can’t find em in canada
these are 3grd in australia.
Howcome this one has an ebony fretboard and the ones online mahogany?
The TAG3 C is priced at $1,699 bit dear when a top effects box will do the same
It is... not plugged in
Just ordered mine in Sand burst finish, can't wait 😊
Will be junk in 5 years.
@@4Chimney that's fine, 5 years of fun 😁
That sand burst is beautiful !! Congratulations man !
What are you playing at 13.30, its stressing me out.
Ma se bisogna intervenire dentro la cassa per un qualsiasi motivo .... ?
Big problem with this guitar - what happens when you lose the bespoke charging cable (future expense)? Why haven't you used USB C for the cable so its easy to charge? The Battery that comes with it built in so you cant replace yourself, what happens when that fails (more cost)? but more importantly if you've got a gig planned and it hasn't charged you cant replace the batteries like with the original TA guitars. Great idea for a guitar but with stupid electrical implementation.
Yes, this guitar sound great. But at the same time - it's very impractical: in studio session - all inbuild effects (echo, delay, chorus) can be made by studio tools with much better quality. You can't use this guitar in pub, or club gigs because of acoustic feedback. Maybe it is possible to use this instrument in small and very quiet premises, i.e. at home. But to buy guitar by 1700 Euros for home purpose only - IMHO delusional.
It's not made for a studio session...
Price is actually reasonable all things considered. It's just not for you, and that's not a problem
Shame Yamaha. No left hand model again. The best guitar I have ever owned is a Yamaha FG1200J - bought new right hand 1978 I replaced the bridge to make it a lefty, play it every day - sounds better than any Martin.
TransAcoustic? They're makin the damn guitars woke now.
😂😂😂 brilliant
Airlines and shipping have been woke for ages! Transatlantic travel has been a thing since Columbus!
They better not touch my Siberian orchestra
It stand for transducer genius 👏 🙌 🤣 😂
Relieved the guitar isn't sporting 5 o'clock shadow with lipstick and eyeshadow
When I was younger I got an acoustic out of Walmart for Christmas is that considered my first guitar ?
@@Punkrocket8 .At 16 a kay electric from Woolworths with a f.a.l amp 🤣
The effects are way too wet almost sounding Muzak like at times
Yes, they sound a lot better when used with restraint. I have the original LS-TA, and the thing is that you, as the player, don’t notice the effect as much, as when you listen to someone else play it, so you tend to turn them up a bit too much. That’s my personal experience at least.
Put simply, is it worth the divorce ?
It sounds ok, a bit too tinny and jangly, no real warmth or character, just a clinical typical Japanese acoustic sound.
I'll stick to my Lowden thanks.
Same my 032c😊👍
You've proved that chorus is the ugliest effect.
That guitar identifies as The/She/It.
Go away!
Sounds very artificial- no thank you
The key is to use the effects with restraint. I have the LS-TA, and the effects on that one sound very natural. I haven’t heard this one in person, but I would imagine it’s even better.
i’d never pay $1600 for a Yamaha for a Taylor yes, if a acoustic guitar is good it doesn’t need FX or any bells and whistles
If that’s true then Taylors need a lot of bells and whistles. Taylors far from making the best sounding guitars. Only good guitars Taylor can compete with is their small guitars. Big baby taylors and such.
Can’t wait for the full body version
@@sircusboy351 i respectfully disagree my Taylor 214-ce just keeps getting better with age,had it for 10+ years now and the top is already starting to naturally torrify and the guitar sounds way better and more articulate and has a better tone than the day when I first got it, and it’s not even one of their American made ones and I would put it up against any Martin or Gibson acoustic out there
@@michaelmetal71I’m glad you love your guitar. The only Taylor’s that make me smile are their small ones. I’m not saying Martin and Gibsons blow me away either. I had a Taylor k24ce and it was a 5k piece of trash. it took me years to finally dump it. I’ve played several taylors since then. Even the k14 builders v bracing is very unimpressive. There’s nothing magical about them. I’ve owned big baby taylors and gs minis and they are fine guitars. Even bob Taylor himself will admit his guitars aren’t the best sounding. Just the best playing. I’m glad you got a gem. If i find a Taylor i love I’ll buy one. But i never do. Everyone’s ears are different though. They are very beautiful though and work for some people. i only recommend them as live guitars.
I have the LL-TA, the 1st gen transacoustic. I bought it looking for a taylor/martin, wishing for a gibson. Never thought of Yamaha, but the guy at the shop suggested it to me, and I was blown away by the feel and sound for the price, and that was without the effects. They are super guitars. Solid spruce, with rosewood back and sides, the equivalent taylor would be the 400 series setting you back 3k. Will be interested to see if these are as high quality, it looks like they have sacrificed a few features for the extra tech. The LL-TA has a torrified top, chamfered binding on the neck and maple binding on the body.
What a joke! The technology inside will be obsolete in 3 years. A guitar should last for decades. Not this one. It will be unsaleable on the used market in 5 years.
L take 😂
My TA from 8 years ago is still amazing. How the hell should reverb become obsolete beats me.
@@4Chimney i only agree onwith the built in battery part. But if you don’t like that get the LL-TA instead. It’s incredible and will last forever
Why would it become obsolete? Even without the effects, Yamaha makes great guitars.
Just let others enjoy the "joke" while you can't afford it.
