Inspired by Yamaha's "red label" guitars of the 1960s, new FG Red Label folk guitars blend modern inspiration with a timeless design. Featuring a semi-gloss finish and high-quality components, FG Red Label guitars capture an authentic vintage aesthetic. The solid Mahogany back and sides are paired with a premium solid Sitka Spruce top that is treated with Yamaha's Acoustic Resonance Enhancement process for genuine aged-wood tone and sustain. A new scalloped-bracing design delivers plenty of volume, while the ground-breaking Atmosfeel three-way pickup system provides a natural acoustic sound when amplified. FGX5 is made in Japan and has a Traditional Western body, with a case included. Vintage Natural Gloss finish.
The Japanese-made FGX5 dreadnought-style acoustic guitar with built-in pickup system delivers full, punchy low end, well-suited for strumming and flatpicking. Modern craftsmanship complements its 1960s aesthetics, and the Atmosfeel™ pickup faithfully reproduces the guitar's character onstage.
