More Information

Combining Yamaha luthiers' experience with state of the art structural acoustic analysis, Yamaha developed an even deeper understanding of how internal structure affects a guitar's voice. From there, Yamaha engineered a new design which both captures and enhances that classic tone.

One result of this unique approach is a totally new scalloped bracing pattern. It gives the FG850 more volume, more projection, more low end and a bigger tone for the player - everything Yamaha set out to do. In addition, the new bracing pattern moves the resonant centre much closer to the middle of the guitar, with a big impact on both the tone and the feel to the player.

But Yamaha's goal was not only to craft a guitar that sounds great today, but to craft one who's tone lasts for a lifetime. A solid top board, a 0.25mm thin finish for great tone and superior wood protection, a super-comfortable thin neck profile and thin back and sides construction ensure maximum volume and resonance with long-term stability and consistency.
