The
all solid FGX3 from Yamaha's Red Label Series
combines traditional aesthetics with modern and innovative features. Accordingly, a new
scalloped bracing
is combined with a
thermally treated Sitka spruce top
on a
mahogany body
to produce a warm, powerful tone with deep bass, nuanced and vocal mids and radiant highs. In addition, the thermal Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment conveys the sound and sustain of aged wood.
Thus this dreadnought turns out to be the ideal companion for the singer-songwriter who appreciates a powerful accompaniment for their voice. The
shortened scale length of 634mm
provides comfortable playability, whereas the
chrome-plated open tuners
keep the tuning clean.
For on-stage use the FGX3 features an
Atmosfeel pickup
with a
piezo sensor in the bridge
to capture low frequencies, whereas a
microphone
transmits the low and mid frequencies. A newly developed
contact sensor
captures the high frequencies. The result is a full, natural sound image that can be easily adjusted. Last but not least a
hardbag
is already included in the scope of delivery.
