The YAMAHA FG/FS 800 Series

When it was introduced in 1966, the Yamaha FG proved that a great acoustic guitar didn’t 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 that’s made it the choice of millions of guitarists.

The 800 Series has a 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.

Newly Developed Scalloped Bracing

The 800 Series features a new scalloped bracing pattern; an ideal acoustic structure that maintains the durability of the top board, while bringing out more of the natural sound of the instrument.

The Power of Choice

2 body shapes, including an all-new FS concert size; 5 grades featuring different tonewood options; a myriad of color options; acoustic or electric-acoustic models. Whatever the personality of your music, there’s an FG to match.

Made in Yamaha

Every aspect is crafted to make a better guitar. From painstakingly cured and dried woods to beautiful hand-sprayed finishes and detailed quality control, each and every FG is made to be a lifelong partner.

User questions & answers

Question:	This may be a dumb question but, is this for both right and left handed players
Answer:	I bought the mahogany because I play more mellow jazz and mahogany has a more mellow sound to me. Rosewood has a brighter tone more fitted to rock.
Question:	I am purchasing as a gift for my husband and I am wondering about the different between nato, mahogany, and rosewood
Answer:	It is a what is called a solid top guitar. It is two pieces of solid wood. Its hard to find a tree big enough to cut a one piece top out of. This is normal for all guitar manufactures even big name brands. Oh and by the way Yamaha is a big name in guitar. Probably the most consistent in quality an construction. Best bang for the buck out there. I have many guitars and in a blind test of family and friends all say my A1R sounds the best. Yes I have more expensive other brands one is all solid top and body but none compare. The sound will only get better with age with your FGX830C YOU HAVE CHOSEN WISELY.
Question:	Hi. is it really solid top? love the guitar sound, but i see a little seam going across the top dividing it into two halves? tnx
Answer:	even better than fgx830 and fgx830 is the fgx830
Question:	Which is the best fgx830 or fgx
Answer:	Yes, the included gig bag fits this model. It is made to fit both 1/2 and 3/4 size models, so it will be slightly roomier with the Requinto 1/2 size. Like "M" mentioned, the included velcro strap for the neck will hold the guitar securely. Thanks for your question!

User questions & answers

Question:	How wide is the neck of the guitar around the top 5 frets
Answer:	About 2 inches.
Question:	does the 1/2 size have a two tone top? The picture shows a slight line running down the middle that appears to be two tones/two pieces
Answer:	Yes, the top is two pieces of laminated spruce. This is a standard practice for just about every guitar manufacturer.
Question:	I'm a 4'10" adult with tiny baby hands. Looking for smaller guitar so certain chords are easier to play. Which size should I get
Answer:	This probably won't do, as the fretboard is rather wide. A parlor guitar is more your fit. The Little Martin or be the Peavey Composer is small, but sound good. Check them out.
Question:	Is there an option to have it strung for a left-handed child
Answer:	You can always string a guitar backwards, but as a lefty who plays right-handed, I'd strongly urge having the child learn the normal way. So many times you wind up at a party where there's a guitar, and if you can't play it because you've learned a non-standard way, you've severely limited your opportunities. Besides, the left hand which does the fretting has an advantage for a lefty.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do you attach the guitar strap? There aren’t instructions for it and I don’t see attachments
Answer:	There is a place on the bottom of the guitar to attach one end. The other end has a smaller string that can be attached to the strap using the little metal clip. I just used the smaller loop to make a loop around the end of the neck of the guitar (under the strings) and attached it that way. Most guitars have another button on the other side of the main body behind the neck, but this one does not.
Question:	Do you have to put the strings on
Answer:	No. The strings are already on.
Question:	Please share the Return policy on this item
Answer:	I don’t know. It came in perfect condition.
Question:	Can this guitar be hooked up to an amp
Answer:	Sorry, no this one can not. It's a beautiful sounding guitar,but no amp connection.
