Yamaha FSX800C Folk Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Ruby Red

Yamaha FSX800C Folk Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Ruby Red

Sale price$479.99
A new FG has louder and stronger sound in the low- to mid-ranges, thanks to cutting-edge acoustic analysis technology developed by the Yamaha R&D Division.. Yamaha's engineers have achieved this sound by utilizing analysis and simulation to arrive at the best bracing design without depending on tradition or guesswork.

This analysis led to the development of the new scalloped bracing pattern, a new and ideal acoustic structure that maintains the durability of the top board while bringing out the most sound the Yamaha FG has to offer.

50 Years of History
  • The history of Yamaha's FG series started in 1966 with the release of the FG180 and FG150. Over the 50 years since its introduction, we have developed and produced several generations of FG - all of which have made FG the ideal acoustic for contemporary players.. In all, there have been over 200 FG models since 1966.
Made in Yamaha
  • Every aspect of an FG is crafted to make a better guitar. From painstakingly cured and dried woods to beautiful hand-sprayed finishes and detailed quality control checks each and every FG is made to be a lifelong partner.
Nato/Okume Back & Sides
  • Similar sound characteristics to Mahogany. Warm sound and rich midrange
Comfort and Creativity
  • The FS model body is 10mm slimmer than that of the FG body, offering increased comfort and playability with no loss of volume or bass. Having a body that is easier to hold makes the FS more appealing to beginners and smaller guitarists, including female players. In addition, the smaller dimensions and lower propensity to feedback make FS guitars ideal for stage use.
Electric System
  • System 66 feature an under-saddle piezo pickup developed by Yamaha.
  • Controls include a 3-band EQ, an adjustable mid-range frequency control, and a precision chromatic tuner for optimum sound tailoring.
  • The system is powered by easy to obtain AA-size batteries that provide a stable power supply for improved sound quality.
