Yamaha FS830 Small Body Acoustic Guitar, Dusk Red
GUITARS
YAMAHA
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/FS acoustics, its tone is better than ever, so no matter where you are on your musical journey, it all starts here!
The FS830 provides rich overtones and improved sustain, thanks to the rosewood back and sides, deliver improved sound through greater depth. Its small and thin body is perfect for intermediate- to upper-level, fingerpicking-style players.
Scalloped Bracing
The FG/FGX/FS 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.
