Yamaha FGX800C Traditional Western Body Solid Spruce Top Acoustic/Electric Guitar, Natural

Introducing the Yamaha FGX800C Traditional Western Body Solid Spruce Top Acoustic/Electric Guitar
Derived from the FG800, the FGX800C features a solid spruce top and nato/Okoume back and sides, along with a cutaway body and an electric system. It is equipped with Yamaha's proprietary under-saddle piezo pickup and System66 analog preamp for dependable plugged-in performance.

The Beginning of Excellence
Introduced in 1966, the FG demonstrated that a top-notch acoustic guitar doesn't need to break the bank. With a focus on playability, musical tone, and exceptional craftsmanship, the original FG180 became a timeless classic. Now, 50 years later, the FG acoustics boast even better sound quality. Your musical journey starts here!

Enhanced Sound with Scalloped Bracing
Thanks to Yamaha's cutting-edge acoustic analysis technology, the FG/FGX Series delivers louder and more robust low-to-mid-range sound. By employing advanced analysis and simulation, Yamaha's engineers have perfected the bracing design, resulting in the scalloped bracing pattern - an optimal acoustic structure that balances durability and sound projection.

A Legacy of 50 Years
The Yamaha FG Series was established in 1966 with the launch of the FG180 and FG150 models. Through continuous innovation, Yamaha has produced multiple generations of FG guitars, solidifying FG as the preferred choice for modern musicians.

Variety and Versatility
Choose from two body shapes, including the concert-size FS, five grades with various tonewood options, a wide range of color choices, and acoustic or acoustic-electric models. Whatever your playing style, there is an FG guitar that suits your preferences.
