The Yamaha FGX5 at a glance

With the all-solid Japanese-made FGX5 Natural from the Red Label Series, Yamaha combines the traditional aesthetics of the 60s with modern and innovative features. Accordingly, a new scalloped bracing combined with a thermally treated Sitka spruce top on a mahogany body provides a warm, powerful tone with warm basses, nuanced and distinctive mids, and brilliant and radiant highs. In addition, the thermal Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment imparts the sound and Sustain of aged wood.

The Yamaha FGX Dreadnought is a great choice for players who want to powerfully support their vocals. furthermore, a shortened scale length of 634mm delivers comfortable playability, while chrome-plated open Vintage tuners cleanly hold tuning. A wooden pickguard completes the high-quality impression throughout.

For stage use, the Atmosfeel pickup is available, which has a piezo sensor in the bridge to detect low frequencies, while a microphone transmits the low and midrange. A newly developed contact sensor is available for capturing high frequencies. The result is a full, natural sound with controls that make it easy to get great plug-in sound. Last but not least, a carrying case is already included.

This Guitar is just fabulous

Review from: Diego at 01/15/23

I own some acoustic guitars (Martin CEO 9, Martin OOO28, Gibson SJ 200, two fabulous Eastman guitars etc) but this one is absolutely stunning. It's so incredibly well made and sounds so balanced and warm. I play it everyday and played gigs with no issues at all. I was in the market for a Martin D18 but started to compare the sound and I couldn't see why I would pay the double of the price. The pick-up is really very good. I will never sell this baby in my lifetime :-)
