Yamaha FSX800C Acoustic-Electric Guitar – Natural

Yamaha FSX800C Acoustic-Electric Guitar – Natural

The Yamaha FSX800C Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Natural combines a compact Concert-style body with a practical cutaway and built-in electronics for amplified performance. Its solid spruce top and Nato/Okoume back and sides provide a balanced acoustic character, while Yamaha’s newly developed scalloped bracing supports responsive resonance and clear projection.

The onboard Yamaha SYSTEM66 analog preamp works with Yamaha’s proprietary under-saddle piezo pickup to provide dependable plugged-in sound for lessons, rehearsals, recording, and live performance. Its smaller and thinner body, 634 mm scale length, and cutaway design also make it comfortable for seated playing, fingerstyle techniques, and access to higher frets.
