{"product_id":"08-0r6ib1fz3-1049","title":"[SN ILK151049] YAMAHA \/ FG Red Label Series FGX3 VN Vintage Natural [Grade B Outlet Special Price] [08]","description":"B-Grade Outlet Specials\u003cbr\u003e \n---Please Be Sure to Check Before Purchasing---\u003cbr\u003e \nThis model is offered at a Grade B special price due to minor cosmetic imperfections, such as fine scratches, dents, pinholes, or paint defects.\u003cbr\u003e \nWhile there are no issues with the instrument’s performance, please be aware in advance that the appearance is not covered by warranty or eligible for return.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe “FG Red Label” Series: A fusion of tradition and confidence—a mid-range electro-acoustic model that combines the aesthetics of the 1960s with the skilled craftsmanship honed over more than 50 years\u003cbr\u003e \n・Equipped with the newly developed “Atmosfeel” pickup system\u003cbr\u003e \n・Delivers the airy quality and natural acoustic resonance of an acoustic guitar faithfully through the line output\u003cbr\u003e \nYamaha’s original jumbo body shape delivers rich volume and natural mid-to-low-range resonance. The sound is ideal for chord strumming and flatpicking.\u003cbr\u003e \n・Newly developed scalloped bracing delivers a warm, powerful sound characterized by deep bass and rich harmonics.\u003cbr\u003e \n・The top is made of solid Sitka spruce treated with A.R.E., producing a mature sound reminiscent of a guitar that’s been played for many years\u003cbr\u003e \n・Fingerboard and bridge are made of ebony\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nKey Features\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Yamaha’s traditional V-shaped headstock\u003cbr\u003e \nThe headstock, which inherits the shape of the original FG, features Yamaha’s iconic tuning fork logo. The truss rod cover is engraved with “1966,” the year the first-generation FG guitar was released.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Solid Sitka spruce top\u003cbr\u003e \nThe top is made of solid Sitka spruce treated with A.R.E.\u003cbr\u003e \nAlthough brand-new, it delivers a rich tone reminiscent of a well-played instrument, along with a powerful resonance driven by warm mid-to-low frequencies.\u003cbr\u003e \nIts well-balanced sound is ideal for chord strumming or rhythmic fingerstyle playing.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Solid mahogany is used for the back and sides\u003cbr\u003e \nSolid mahogany is used for the sides and back. This delivers the warm, rich midrange characteristic of mahogany.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Cowbone Nut and Saddle\u003cbr\u003e \nThe nut and saddle are made of cow bone (Grade #5 only).\u003cbr\u003e \nCow bone is extremely hard, enabling more effective sound transmission from the strings to the neck and body.\u003cbr\u003e \nHowever, since fitting and adjusting these components requires a high level of technical skill, each guitar is carefully finished one by one by skilled guitar craftsmen in Japan.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆Proprietary Scalloped Bracing\u003cbr\u003e \nAiming to achieve an ideal, warm tone, we made repeated improvements by combining virtual prototyping using the latest acoustic analysis simulation technology with physical prototypes crafted from wood.\u003cbr\u003e \nCompared to the scalloped bracing used in the FG\/FS#800 series, we have optimized this design to match the characteristics of the wood itself and the specific models of the FG and FS series, thereby further expanding the low-frequency response.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) Treatment\u003cbr\u003e \nYamaha’s proprietary Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) process was applied to the top.\u003cbr\u003e \nBy precisely controlling temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, we have replicated the natural aging process that occurs in wood over a long period after milling within a short timeframe. This enhances sound transmission and vibration efficiency, promoting the extension of mid-to-low frequency components while increasing the attack of high-frequency components and accelerating their decay.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe A.R.E. treatment produces a well-balanced, mature, and warm sound with few harsh overtones, creating a tone reminiscent of a guitar that has been played for many years.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Equipped with the “Atmosfeel” Pickup System\u003cbr\u003e \nThe Atmosfeel 3-way pickup system features three distinct pickups that reliably capture each frequency range: an under-saddle piezo sensor for the mid-to-low range, a microphone built into the preamp for the low range, and a proprietary, ultra-thin contact sensor for the high range.\u003cbr\u003e \nBy incorporating a contact sensor made of thin, durable piezoelectric synthetic paper, the system reproduces the cohesive string vibrations emanating from the soundhole—which conventional pickups couldn’t fully capture—as well as the sustain of each individual string, the tactile sensation of fingering, and the airy, delicate tones produced by high-frequency harmonics.\u003cbr\u003e \nIt delivers the sensation of playing an acoustic guitar unamplified directly through the line output.\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Simple Operation\u003cbr\u003e \nThe “Atmosfeel” system allows you to blend the signals from each pickup with extremely simple controls, making it easy to shape your sound.\u003cbr\u003e \nUse the master volume knob to fine-tune the tone, and the mic blend knob to add body resonance.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe Bass EQ controller allows you to adjust the peak EQ. Whether you’re a guitarist in a band who needs to cut low frequencies or a fingerstyle player looking for low-end support, adjusting the center frequency band to suit your specific needs ensures a confident tone-shaping experience.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIncluded: Semi-hard case, 2 AA batteries\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* Product specifications, prices, accessories, and packaging are subject to change without notice.\u003cbr\u003e \n* Colors may differ from the actual product depending on your browser or viewing environment.\u003cbr\u003e \n* Since this product is listed on multiple marketplaces, we strive to promptly remove product listings once an item is sold, but updates may not always be in real time.\u003cbr\u003e \nWe sincerely apologize if the item happens to be out of stock after you place your order, and we ask for your understanding.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nProduct Specifications\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Shape: Dreadnought Style\u003cbr\u003e \nScale Length: 634 mm (25”)\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Length: 505 mm (19 7\/8”)\u003cbr\u003e \nTotal Length: 1030 mm (40 9\/16”)\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Width: 412 mm (16 1\/4”)\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Depth: 100–118 mm (3 15\/16”–4 5\/8”)\u003cbr\u003e \nNut Width: 44 mm (1 3\/4”)\u003cbr\u003e \nString Spacing: 11 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nTop Material: Solid Sitka Spruce A.R.E.\u003cbr\u003e \nBack Material: Solid Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nSide Material: Solid Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck Material: African Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nFingerboard Radius: R400 mm (15 3\/4”)\u003cbr\u003e \nBridge Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e \nNut Material: Urea\u003cbr\u003e \nSaddle Material: Urea\u003cbr\u003e \nBridge Pins: Black ABS with White Dot\u003cbr\u003e \nTuners: Open-Gear Chrome (Y1D)\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Binding: Black + White\u003cbr\u003e \nSound Hole Inlay: Black + White\u003cbr\u003e \nPickguard: Black\u003cbr\u003e \nBody Finish: Semigloss\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003e \nElectronics: Atmosfeel (SYSTEM74)\u003cbr\u003e \nControls: Master Volume, Mic Blend, Bass EQ\u003cbr\u003e \nConnections: LINE OUT\u003cbr\u003e \nStrings: Elixir NANOWEB 80\/20 Bronze Light\u003cbr\u003e \nJAN: 4957812665803\u003cbr\u003e \nS\/N: ILK151049","brand":"YAMAHA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49248321306876,"sku":"08-0r6ib1fz3-1049","price":101400.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/2247\/6028\/files\/e4213e243da9497baffb3e0db8a3f167_202607047326549.jpg?v=1783163305","url":"https:\/\/intl.ishibashi.co.jp\/products\/08-0r6ib1fz3-1049","provider":"Ishibashi Music Corporation.
