The FSX5 represents Yamaha's masterful tribute to their legendary 1960s "red label" guitars, combining vintage aesthetics with cutting-edge Japanese craftsmanship. This concert-style acoustic guitar features a solid Sitka Spruce top that has been treated with Yamaha's Acoustic Resonance Enhancement process, paired with solid Mahogany back and sides to create genuine aged-wood tone and sustain. The high gloss Vintage Natural finish captures the authentic vintage aesthetic that made the original red label guitars so coveted.
Built with modern innovation, the FSX5 incorporates a new scalloped-bracing design that produces impressive volume, while the groundbreaking Atmosfeel™ three-way pickup system ensures natural acoustic sound reproduction when amplified. The concert body size makes this guitar particularly well-suited for players who favour a smaller body profile and the slightly brighter tonal characteristics that complement fingerpicking techniques.
Made in Japan with meticulous attention to detail, the FSX5 comes complete with a case and represents the perfect marriage of vintage inspiration and contemporary performance. The Atmosfeel™ pickup system faithfully reproduces the guitar's natural character on stage, making this instrument equally at home in intimate acoustic settings or larger performance venues.
