Yamaha FSX5 Red Label Vintage Natural Gloss Acoustic Guitar
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 FSX5 concert-style acoustic guitar with built-in pickup system is a good fit for players who prefer a smaller body and slightly brighter sound to complement fingerpicking. The Atmosfeelâą pickup faithfully reproduces the guitar's character onstage, while modern craftsmanship with a striking gloss finish honors its 1960s aesthetics.
Features
- Gloss finish on the body
- Atmosfeelâą pickup and preamp for natural, plugged-in sound
- Scalloped bracing provides warm, powerful tone with deep lows and rich harmonics
- Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment imparts the sound and sustain of aged wood
- All-solid construction with a Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides
- Ebony fingerboard, bridge and bridge pins
- Bone nut and saddle
- Made in Japan
- Hardshell case included
