When it was introduced in 1966, the Yamaha FG proved that a great acoustic guitar didnt need to cost a fortune. With a focus on great playability, musical tone and outstanding build quality, the original FG180 quickly became a classic with countless careers and hit records starting life on an FG. 50 years since the introduction of the FG acoustics, the new range features the best-ever FG tone and the same great playability and class-leading quality thats made it the choice of millions of guitarists. Wherever your musical journeys going, it all starts here.
The first choice in experiencing acoustic-electric music. Derived from FS800 which has the solid spruce top and nato/okume back and sides, the Yamaha FSX800C has a cutaway body and the electric system. Yamaha's proprietary under-saddle piezo pickup and System66 analog preamp ensure the solid plugged-in performance. The small and thin body is perfect not only for female/young players but for intermediate to upper level finger-picking style players.
