<Yamaha’s Traditional V-Shaped Headstock>
The original headstock shape of the Yamaha FG features a logo modeled after a tuning fork. The truss rod cover is engraved with "Since 1966," signifying the origins of Yamaha guitars.

<SOLID Sitka spruce Top>
The body top is crafted from solid Sitka spruce treated with A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement). This delivers a rich 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. This delivers the warm, rich midrange characteristic of mahogany.

<Cowbone Nut and Saddle>
The nut and saddle are made of cowbone (Grade #5 only). Cowbone 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 skill, and each guitar is carefully crafted one by one in Japan by skilled guitar craftsmen.
