Yamaha AES 1500B

AES1500B boasts some of the finest woods available

AES1500B is 6-string royalty, ranking among the most expensive and collectible of electric guitars. It is also uncommonly multi-faceted; the instruments that inspired our AES series were originally designed for discriminating jazz players, but they wound up fueling early rock and roll.

Extraordinary Archtop

Reviewers have repeatedly singled out our AES1500 as an extraordinary archtop bargin. The combination of mellow sycamore top, bright-sounding maple back and sides and multi-dimensional DiMarzio® Q100 pickups captures the depth and complexity we associate with vintage models. At the same time, our two-way tone controls let you split eigher or both pickups to get many bright, punchy tones the originals can't match. Our AES1500B adds a retro-approved Bigsby B-6 tremolo for the sort of smooth, bouncy vibrato unattainable from any other term.
