The Yamaha NX Series NCX3C Nylon String Guitar redefines amplified classical performance with its revolutionary Atmosfeel pickup system and contemporary single-cutaway design. This premium instrument features a solid cedar top with solid walnut back and sides, delivering rich, warm nylon-string tones with exceptional amplified sound quality at performance volumes. Perfect for accomplished classical players, crossover artists, and performers seeking superior live nylon-string amplification without compromise.
Product Overview
The NCX3C represents Yamaha's commitment to modern nylon-string performance, combining traditional tonal qualities with cutting-edge electronics and contemporary aesthetics. The solid cedar top provides immediate responsiveness and warm harmonic complexity, while the solid walnut back and sides contribute focused projection with rich midrange character. Yamaha's precision engineering ensures optimal body resonance through carefully measured bracing modifications that enhance low-frequency response without sacrificing structural integrity.
The sleek single-cutaway body shape offers comfortable upper-fret access while maintaining the tonal balance essential to quality nylon-string guitars. This contemporary design appeals to players transitioning from steel-string or electric instruments while preserving the authentic classical guitar experience. The ebony fingerboard and bridge provide smooth playability and excellent string energy transfer, ensuring consistent tone and sustain across all playing positions.
Yamaha's proprietary Atmosfeel pickup system revolutionizes nylon-string amplification by combining three distinct sensing technologies: an undersaddle piezo pickup with individual string sensors for mid and low-mid frequencies, a synthetic sheet transducer for high-frequency capture, and an internal microphone for natural body resonance. This multi-source approach eliminates the harsh characteristics typical of traditional piezo systems while maintaining natural acoustic character at high volumes.

- Crossover artists blending classical technique with contemporary musical styles
- Recording musicians seeking authentic nylon-string tones with professional electronics
- Live performers who demand natural acoustic character without feedback issues
- Advanced players transitioning from steel-string instruments to nylon-string exploration
