Yamaha FS800 Solid Top Folk Acoustic Guitar

Newly Developed Scalloped Bracing

A new FS has louder and stronger sound in the low- to mid-ranges, thanks to cutting-edge acoustic analysis technology developed by the Yamaha R&D Division. Yamaha’s engineers have achieved this sound by utilizing analysis and simulation to arrive at the best bracing design without depending on tradition or guesswork. This analysis led to the development of the new scalloped bracing pattern, a new and ideal acoustic structure that maintains the durability of the top board while bringing out the most sound the Yamaha FS has to offer.

50 Years of History

The history of Yamaha‘s FS series started in 1966. Over the 50 years since its introduction, we have developed and produced several generations of FS - all of which have made FS the ideal acoustic for contemporary players.



Made in Yamaha

Every aspect of an FS is crafted to make a better guitar. From painstakingly cured and dried woods to beautiful hand-sprayed finishes and detailed quality control checks each and every FS is made to be a lifelong partner.
