Yamaha FS800J Acoustic Guitar

The Yamaha FS800J is one of those rare guitars that sells itself.It's the concert-body version of Yamaha's popular FG800J — same solid spruce top, same scalloped bracing, same great build quality, but in a smaller, narrower package. The concert body is easier to hold for players with a smaller frame, and it's a natural fit for fingerpicking, giving individual notes more clarity and definition than the bigger dreadnought shape.The solid spruce top is what separates this guitar from most of the competition at this price. Laminate tops are the norm under $300. Solid tops sound better and continue to open up and improve with age and play. Yamaha's scalloped bracing lets that top vibrate more freely, which translates to a balanced, resonant tone with real projection for a guitar this size.Specs at a glance: Solid spruce top with scalloped bracing Mahogany/nato back and sides for warm, balanced tone Rosewood fingerboard and bridge 25" scale length, 1-11/16" nut width 400mm (15¾") fingerboard radius Gloss body finish, matte neck finish Die-cast chrome tuners Tortoiseshell pickguard No built-in electronics (pure acoustic — a K&K Pure Mini can be added later if you ever need to plug in) Plays well right out of the box.
