The FG heritage extends back to the 1966 release of the FG180, the first production acoustic guitar by Yamaha. In the more than half-century since, we have balanced traditional guitar craft with a spirit of constant refinement, pursuing our vision of the ideal folk guitar.

The FS5 concert-style acoustic guitar is a good fit for players who prefer a smaller body and slightly brighter sound to complement fingerpicking. Modern craftsmanship honors its 1960s aesthetics, and superior Yamaha build quality is showcased under a beautiful gloss finish.
