----------------------------------
An acoustic guitar featuring a gloss-finish body and the highly acclaimed Atomosfeel pickup system!
A new model featuring a gloss finish (body) that enhances its premium feel!
Combining the aesthetics of the 1960s with skilled craftsmanship honed over more than 50 years
Equipped with the newly developed âAtmosfeelâ pickup system. It allows you to faithfully reproduce the acoustic guitarâs airy quality and natural resonance through the line output.
Yamahaâs original jumbo body shape delivers rich volume and natural mid-to-low-frequency resonance. The sound is ideal for chord strumming and flatpicking.
Through repeated refinements utilizing proprietary scalloped bracing and the latest acoustic analysis simulation technology, it achieves an ideal warm tone and rich low-end response
The top is made of solid Sitka spruce treated with A.R.E., producing a mature sound reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years
The fingerboard, bridge, and bridge pins are made of ebony.
A âMade in Japanâ model set up by skilled technicians
Hard case included
<Yamahaâs Traditional V-Shaped Head>
The original headstock shape of the Yamaha FG features a logo modeled after a tuning fork.
The truss rod cover is engraved with âSince 1966,â signifying the origins of Yamaha guitars.
<SOLID Sitka spruce Top>
The body top is crafted from solid Sitka spruce treated with A.R.E. This achieves a rich, resonant tone that sounds as if the guitar has been played for years, even though it is brand new.
The well-balanced sound is ideal for chord strumming or rhythmic fingerstyle playing.
<Solid Mahogany Sides and Back>
Solid mahogany is used for the sides and back, delivering the warm, rich midrange characteristic of mahogany.
<Cowbone Nut and Saddle>
The nut and saddle are made of cow bone (Grade #5 only). Cow bone is extremely hard, enabling more effective sound transmission from the strings to the neck and body.
Installing and adjusting a cowbone nut requires a high level of technical skill; each guitar is carefully crafted one by one in Japan by skilled guitar craftsmen.
<Proprietary Scalloped Bracing>
Aiming to achieve an ideal, warm tone, we have repeatedly refined this design by combining virtual prototyping using the latest acoustic analysis simulation technology with physical prototypes crafted from wood.
Compared to the scalloped bracing used in the FG/FS#800 series, we have optimized this design to match the characteristics of the wood itself and the specific models of the FG and FS series, achieving further expansion of the low-frequency range.
<A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) Treatment>
The top is treated with Yamahaâs proprietary Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) process.
By precisely controlling temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, we induce changes in a short period that mimic the aging process of wood over a long period after it has been sawn. This enhances sound transmission and vibration efficiency, promoting the extension of mid-to-low frequency components while increasing the attack of high-frequency components and accelerating their decay.
The A.R.E. treatment produces a well-balanced, mature, and warm sound with minimal harsh overtones, creating a tone reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years.
<Equipped with the Newly Developed âAtmosfeelâ Pickup System>
The newly developed Atmosfeel 3-way pickup system features three distinct pickups that reliably capture each frequency range: an under-saddle piezo sensor for the mid-to-low range, a microphone built into the preamp for the low range, and a proprietary, ultra-thin contact sensor for the high range.
<Simple and User-Friendly Controller>
The âAtmosfeelâ controller unit allows you to blend the signals from each pickup with extremely simple controls, making it easy to shape your sound.
Use the master volume knob to fine-tune the tone, and the mic blend knob to add body to the sound. The Bass EQ controller allows you to adjust the peak EQ settings.
Included Accessories: Hard Case, Soundhole Cover
