The Yamaha FGX5 Red Label Dreadnought delivers the heritage of Yamahas original FG series with refined modern craftsmanship and professional performance features. Built in Japan, this instrument pairs a solid A.R.E.-treated Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides, producing a warm, seasoned tone that feels broken-in right out of the case. Its dreadnought body shape provides the bold projection and low-end power that players have trusted Yamaha for since the 1960s, while the 25-inch scale and smooth satin-finished neck ensure effortless playability and comfort. Every detail of the FGX5 reflects Yamahas commitment to sound and feel. The ebony fingerboard and bridge add clarity and sustain, while the open-gear chrome tuners and bone nut and saddle provide rock-solid tuning stability and resonance. The gloss finish brings out the natural beauty of the woods, balanced by classic black and cream binding and a wooden pickguard that enhances the instruments vintage character. Equipped with Yamahas Atmosfeel System74 pickup and preamp, the FGX5 excels on stage and in the studio. The 3-band control layoutfeaturing master volume, mic blend, and bass EQlets players easily shape their tone for any environment, maintaining a natural acoustic sound even when amplified. Whether performing live, recording, or playing at home, this guitar captures the warmth and richness of a true all-solid build with the precision and reliability Yamaha is known for.
