Product Information

This means that the FS800 is a better option for players of a smaller build and stature, whereas the FG800 will satisfy anybody in the market for a full-size acoustic guitar . While Yamaha might not be the first name that springs to mind when it comes to acoustic guitars, they’ve actually been making them since the mid-60s, when they introduced their FG180 model. The slightly narrower width makes it easier to play physically as you don’t have to get your hand around as much. It can also make it slightly more difficult to play finger style but I found this guitar was fine for finger style. Fretboard (Fingerboard) They could achieve even better tone, in my opinion, if they used something better than plastic for the saddle and nut. But this is something that you can replace.

About Yamaha FG

Great to see a solid top on a guitar this price – and this is one of the reasons why Yamaha manage such good tone at this price. Otherwise the playability of this guitar is pretty good, and this guitar is actually one of the best acoustic guitars for beginners. Action For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

Hopefully, our guide on the Yamaha FS800 and FG800 has provided some much-needed insight to buyers who are left scratching their heads deciding which model best suits their needs. At the same time, it is subjected to vigorous strumming with a plectrum ensuring that no matter which model you choose, it will also look great both on stage and in the studio for years to come.

Great projection, especially when compared to guitars with a similar design but a higher price tag.

Rich, loud, distinctive. The Yamaha FG800 features newly developed scalloped bracing. This specific type of bracing reinforces the FG800's top. Giving it the strength and durability to stay with you for a lifetime. Not only does it prevent your acoustic from collapsing under string tension, but it enhances the overall sound too. Yamaha's painstaking process and meticulous attention to detail has brought the best of the FG800 out. It's louder, with a richer, stronger sound. From the low to mid-ranges, your instrument is full, and beautifully balanced. Specifications Body & BridgeFender CD60S : Coming in around the same price, the Fender CD60S is another solid top dreadnought aimed squarely at the beginner guitarist. Due to Yamaha’s intention of keeping the price of the FG800 and FS800 down, using both Nato and Sitka tonewoods ensures that the buyer is purchasing a quality product that sounds good and is durable without necessarily breaking the budget. Playability

The FG800 is a classic dreadnought style acoustic guitar, very much modeled after the Martin D-18. Like almost all Yamaha acoustics, it had a very low key design, nothing particularly flashy, just a well executed, contemporary look. Both guitars feature a 25” scale length, the standard scale length for acoustic guitars with which most users will be familiar. This scale length provides a decent amount of space between each fret from the nut to the instrument’s sound hole. This is the model best suited to the singer-songwriter banging out open chords in accompaniment to their voice or that of a bandmate. We are also pleased to report that both models come with an adjustable steel truss rod installed, which for some bizarre reason, is a feature omitted on some lower-priced acoustics. This is what makes Yamaha one of the best low end guitar producers around. Though I do have some issues with their playability (more on that below) they typically produce really decent tone.The bridge and fretboard were both made from walnut, which is a wood that is seeing a lot more use, even in high end models. The grain on the fretboard looked good, and was nice and tight, with no deep pores. We loved the rounded fretboard edges, too, they significantly added to the comfort and playability, and we found ourselves wishing other manufacturers at this price point would do the same.
