YAMAHA / FSX5 GLOSS Vintage Natural [11]

This new model features a new gloss finish (body) and an improved high-end feel!

The FG/FS Red Label series retains the mid-bass appeal of the original FG from the 1960s, but with A.R.E. processing (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) on carefully selected Sitka spruce wood and specially developed scalloped bracing, it delivers a deep bass and powerful sound from rich overtones. The specially developed scalloped bracing produces a powerful sound with deep bass and rich overtones.

The body of this new model has a new gloss finish, giving it a more luxurious appearance and a sparkling sound. The pickup-equipped model features the Atmosfeel 3-way PU system, which has been highly acclaimed for its natural acoustic sound, and delivers excellent performance on stage as well.
