Overview

A stage is where the Yamaha NTX5 is meant to work, with strap buttons fitted and the Atmosfeel pickup system built in to maintain sound quality at performance volumes. It is a nylon-string acoustic-electric with a cutaway, spruce top and walnut and mahogany construction.

Atmosfeel electronics and a full-size ebony-fretboard build are the strengths, along with the reinforced bag. The limits are the warranty condition and the lack of detail on body depth, nut width or preamp controls.

Who it's for

Gigging guitarists, including steel-string and electric players, who want nylon sound on stage with a bag for transport. Home players who only need acoustic sound, or who buy through unauthorized sellers, can look elsewhere.
