Here for sale we have a Yamaha FGX5 Red Label Electro Acoustic Guitar in a Natural Matt finish. Built in Japan in 2023, this guitar features an all solid construction comprising a Solid Sitka Spruce A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) top, Solid Mahogany back and sides, a African Mahogany neck and a 20 fret Ebony fingerboard with matching bridge. A set of Chrome Open Gear tuning machines are featured along with a Bone nut and saddle and a Atmosfeel Undersaddle Pickup with controls for volume, mic Blend and a bass EQ
The African Mahogany neck plays very well, with a profile which could be described as a slim 'D' filling the hand comfortably without being at all cumbersome. This promotes ergonomic thumb positioning and easy reach across the register, perfect for a wide range of playing styles and techniques. The Satin finish to the rear of the neck assists with smooth navigation of the 25" scale length, whilst the Ebony fingerboard adds a touch of luxury to the already opulent playing experience. The Traditional Western body shape and smooth lines make for an extremely easy playing experience, providing comfort in both standing and seated positions.
The acoustic voice of the FGX5 Red Label is balanced and rich, providing great projection and good volume due its solid construction. The Solid Mahogany back and sides enhance the character of the tone, producing a smooth mid range and responsive and strong bass that is complemented well with the brightness of the Solid SitkaSpruce top. Furthermore the Spruce top projects beautifully, delivering ample volume and dynamic range whilst retaining clarity throughout. The Atmosfeel Undersaddle Pickup faithfully conveys the acoustic voice of the instrument while offering comprehensive control of the tone, making this guitar a perfect partner for a song/songwriter.
