The Yamaha FSX5 Gloss Concert acoustic-electric guitar is a continuation of Yamaha's Red Label legacy, crafted with precision for the modern musician. This Japanese-made guitar features a concert-style body, optimized for fingerpicked performances with a focused high end and intimate, versatile tone. Its design draws inspiration from the original FG Red Label guitars of the 1960s, with a stunning gloss finish that delivers a vintage aesthetic. The FSX5 goes beyond its classic appearance by incorporating Yamaha's A.R.E (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) treatment, which enhances the sound and sustain of aged wood. With the Atmosfeel™ pickup system, this guitar delivers rich, natural acoustic tones on any stage.

Vintage Style With Modern Tonewoods

The FSX5 features a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, offering a clear, resonant tone with excellent projection. Yamaha's A.R.E treatment adds warmth and sustain, giving the guitar the feel and sound of a well-aged instrument. Its concert-style body is perfect for fingerpicking, providing clarity and precision that brings out every note with exceptional detail.

Advanced Atmosfeel Electronics for Stage Performance

Equipped with the Atmosfeel™ pickup system, the FSX5 delivers true acoustic tone when plugged in. The system includes a master volume, mic blend, and bass EQ, giving you full control over your amplified sound. Whether performing live or in the studio, the Atmosfeel system ensures your tone remains natural and balanced, while the onboard preamp captures the full depth of the guitar's acoustic voice.

Designed for Comfort and Playability

With its African mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard, the FSX5 offers smooth playability and precision. The bone nut and saddle, along with ebony bridge pins, enhance tuning stability and resonance. The compact concert-style body provides a comfortable playing experience, making this guitar a trusted choice for extended performances and sessions.
