Everything starts here!
The FG800 series models were developed with feedback from numerous professional guitarists and retailers in mind. We found that many things shouldn't be touched - but there was one recurring comment: everyone wanted the unique character of the FG180 back with just a little more volume, a little more bass, and a little more punch. That is now a reality with the FG800 series!
Yamaha's standard folk model, featuring simple, traditional styling and exceptional quality at an affordable price. A solid-top guitar with an authentic, well-balanced sound, without sacrificing durability, thanks to the scalloped bracing design. Can be confidently recommended to novice guitarists.
