Yamaha FGX5

Yamaha FGX5 - 

Experience the pinnacle of acoustic-electric craftsmanship with the Yamaha FGX5, a guitar that blends timeless tone with cutting-edge performance. Handcrafted in Japan, the FGX5 is part of Yamaha’s Red Label series, inspired by the iconic FG guitars of the 1960s — but upgraded for the modern player.

 

Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top treated with Yamaha’s A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) for rich, aged tone, and paired with solid mahogany back and sides, the FGX5 delivers a warm, dynamic sound with incredible depth and projection. Whether you’re fingerpicking or strumming, it responds with clarity and nuance.

 

The Atmosfeel pickup system ensures your tone translates beautifully on stage, offering a natural, studio-quality sound with simple, intuitive controls for volume, EQ, and mic blend.

 

Key Features:

 

  • Solid A.R.E.-treated Sitka spruce top
  • Solid mahogany back and sides
  • Scalloped X-bracing for improved resonance
  • Ebony fingerboard and bridge
  • Built-in Atmosfeel pickup and preamp system
  • Deluxe hard case included

 

 

With its classic aesthetics, superior build quality, and outstanding plugged-in tone, the Yamaha FGX5 is ready to become your go-to guitar — on stage, in the studio, or at home.
