Yamaha FG830 Solid Top Acoustic Guitar Rosewood Back & Sides Tobacco Brown Sunburst
It All Starts Here
When it was introduced in 1966, the FG proved that a great acoustic guitar doesn't have to cost a fortune. With a focus on great playability, musical tone and outstanding build quality, the original FG180 became a classic. Now, 50 years since the introduction of FG acoustics, its tone is better than ever. So, no matter where you are on your musical journey, it all starts here!
The FG Series has louder and stronger sound in the low-to-mid ranges thanks to cutting-edge acoustic analysis technology developed by the Yamaha R&D Division. Yamaha engineers have achieved this sound by utilizing analysis and simulation to arrive at the best bracing design without depending on tradition or guesswork. This analysis led to the development of the scalloped bracing pattern, an ideal acoustic structure that maintains the durability of the top board while bringing out the most sound.
Rich overtones and improved sustain, thanks to the rosewood back and sides, deliver improved sound through greater depth.
50 Years of History
