Seller's description

An acoustic guitar featuring a gloss-finished body and the highly regarded Atomosfeel pickup system! It inherits the original Yamaha FG headstock shape and features a logo modeled after a tuning fork. The truss rod cover is engraved with "Since 1966," signifying the origins of Yamaha guitars. The body top is crafted from solid Sitka spruce treated with A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement). This delivers a rich, resonant tone that sounds as if the guitar has been played for years, even though it is brand new. The well-balanced sound is ideal for chord strumming or rhythmic fingerstyle playing. Solid mahogany is used for the sides and back. This delivers the warm, rich midrange characteristic of mahogany. The nut and saddle are made of cowbone (Grade #5 only). Cowbone is extremely hard, enabling more effective sound transmission from the strings to the neck and body. Installing and adjusting a cowbone nut requires a high level of skill, and each guitar is carefully crafted one by one in Japan by skilled guitar craftsmen. Aiming to achieve an ideal, warm tone, we have refined this design through a combination of virtual prototyping using the latest acoustic analysis simulation technology and physical woodworking prototypes. Compared to the scalloped bracing used in the FG/FS#800 series, we have optimized it to match the characteristics of the wood itself and the specific models of the FG and FS series, resulting in further expansion of the low-frequency range. The top panel features Yamaha’s proprietary Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment. By precisely controlling temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, this process replicates the natural aging changes that occur in wood over a long period after milling within a short timeframe
