Yamaha FS820 AB Acoustic Guitar

In addition to warmer and stronger sound thanks to the mahogany back and sides, the body binding and fingerboard binding are cream plastic, for an upgraded look. A wealth of color options are available. The small and thin body is perfect not only for young players but for intermediate to upper level finger-picking style players.

Newly Developed Scalloped Bracing

A new FS 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's acoustic engineers have achieved this sound by utilizing analysis and simulation to arrive at the best bracing without depending on tradition or guesswork. This analysis led to the development of the new scalloped bracing pattern, a new and ideal acoustic structure that maintains the durability of the top board while bringing out the most sound the Yamaha FG has to offer.

50 Years of History

The history of Yamaha's FS series started in 1966 with the release of the FG180 and FG150. Over the 50 years since its introduction, we have developed and produced several generations of FG - all of which have made FG the ideal acoustic for contemporary players. In all, there have been over 200 FG models since 1966.

Made in Yamaha

Every aspect of an FS is crafted to make a better guitar. From painstakingly cured and dried woods to beautiful hand-sprayed finishes and detailed quality control checks each and every FS is made to be a lifelong partner.
