RGXA2

The conventional wisdom in building electric guitars has long been that the more uniform and heavy the material, the better the sound. RGXA2 Body But not any more. Yamaha has shattered this concept with an advanced technology called Alternative Internal Resonance, or A.I.R. for short.

The all new RGX A2 electric guitar is a marvel of modern technology. The proprietary A.I.R. (Alternative Internal Resonance) construction body, LED lit cylindrical diecast knobs, RGXA2 lightweight barrel tuners, and Yamaha Alnico soapbar pickups make this a high tech masterpiece that is not only stunningly beautiful, but tonally revolutionary.

"The most significant electric guitar design innovation to come along since the Parker Fly."

- Chris Gill, Guitar World, May 2006

"Yamaha's RGX A2 is a breath of fresh air, both visually and structurally."

The Secret of A.I.R. Technology

Alternative Internal Resonance (or A.I.R.) technology utilizes a lightweight wood core sandwiched between a harder, heavier wood on both the front and back of the guitar's body. Special sound tubes pass through the body so that string vibrations normally resonating only the guitar's top are transmitted through the entire body. By exciting the entire body structure and shaping the tone with the hard top and back, A.I.R. construction creates a full, powerful, and resonant tone with distinctive presence and body that are truly unique.
