Yamaha FG820-12 Natural 12-String Acoustic Guitar

The Yamaha FG820-12 Natural is a 12-string dreadnought acoustic guitar designed for musicians seeking a rich, full-bodied sound with a distinctive shimmering character. It features a solid spruce top that delivers clear articulation and responsive tonal performance, while its mahogany back and sides add warmth and resonance. The traditional Western dreadnought body provides strong projection and a powerful acoustic presence, making it suitable for strumming, songwriting, accompaniment, and recording.

The guitar features specially developed scalloped bracing that improves the top's vibration and enhances its low- and mid-range response. Its 12-string configuration pairs six courses of strings, with octave strings on the lower courses, creating a naturally layered and spacious sound. The nato neck and rosewood fingerboard provide a comfortable playing surface, while the rosewood bridge supports stable string placement and vibration transfer.

Finished in Natural with a gloss body finish, the FG820-12 has an elegant traditional appearance. It features die-cast chrome TMW-28 tuning machines, a tortoise-pattern pickguard, cream body and fingerboard binding, and a black-and-white soundhole inlay. Its shorter 634 mm scale length and 46 mm nut width are designed specifically for this 12-string model.
