Yamaha FSX800C Electro-Acoustic Guitar
The Yamaha FSX800C is a compact concert-style electro-acoustic guitar designed for musicians who want comfortable playability and the flexibility of amplified performance. It features a solid spruce top that produces a clear, balanced tone with excellent responsiveness. Its concert cutaway body provides easy access to the higher frets, while its compact dimensions make it comfortable for extended playing sessions, fingerpicking, songwriting, and everyday practice.
The guitar features nato/okoume back and sides, a nato neck, and a rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Its specially developed scalloped bracing improves the top's vibration and enhances tonal response, helping deliver a rich and resonant acoustic sound. The steel strings provide bright articulation, making the instrument suitable for different acoustic playing styles.
For amplified performance, the FSX800C features Yamaha's SYSTEM66 analog preamp and SRT piezo pickup system. Its onboard controls include volume, a three-band equalizer, a built-in tuner, and mid-frequency adjustment, allowing players to shape their amplified sound. The LINE OUT connection makes it easy to connect the guitar to an amplifier or PA system. A gloss body finish, die-cast chrome tuning machines, and tortoise-pattern pickguard complete its traditional appearance.
