Yamaha FSX800C Acoustic Electric Guitar - Ruby Red

Exquisite Craftsmanship & Engineered Tone

The foundation of the Yamaha FSX800C lies in its solid Sitka spruce top. Unlike laminate tops, solid wood matures over time, rewarding you with richer harmonics the more you play. Yamaha's cutting-edge acoustic analysis led to the development of custom scalloped bracing. This internal design reinforces the structure while freeing up the soundboard, allowing the guitar to project powerful lows and focused mids that punch well above its compact weight class.

Designed for Playability and Comfort

The concert body shape is significantly more compact than a traditional dreadnought. This makes it an ideal fit for younger players, fingerstylist musicians, or anyone seeking a more ergonomic instrument. The sleek single cutaway grants easy, uninhibited access to the upper frets. Coupled with a smooth, satin-finished neck and rolled fingerboard edges, this guitar minimizes hand fatigue during long practice sessions.

Plug in and Take the Stage

When it is time to plug into an amplifier or PA system, Yamaha’s proprietary System 66 preamp electronics have you covered. The under-saddle SRT piezo pickup accurately captures the guitar's acoustic nuances. An adjustable mid-range frequency control helps you cut through any live mix, while the highly accurate onboard digital tuner ensures you stay perfectly in pitch between songs
