The Yamaha FGX820C delivers professional-grade acoustic performance with the versatility of electric amplification, making it an exceptional choice for serious musicians. Built upon the foundation of the acclaimed FG820, this electric-acoustic folk guitar features a practical cutaway design that provides enhanced upper fret access whilst maintaining the rich, resonant tone that Yamaha guitars are renowned for.
At the heart of this instrument lies a solid spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides, creating a tonal foundation that produces warm, well-balanced sound with crystal-clear note definition. The newly developed scalloped bracing system represents a significant advancement in Yamaha's construction techniques, maximising the top's resonance whilst preserving structural integrity for long-lasting performance.
The FGX820C's electric capabilities are powered by Yamaha's proprietary under-saddle piezo pickup system and System66 analogue preamp, ensuring authentic acoustic tone reproduction when plugged in across various performance settings. Premium appointments include a walnut fingerboard and bridge, complemented by a glossy body finish that enhances both the guitar's visual appeal and tonal characteristics, making this instrument equally suited to studio recording and live performance applications.
