Yamaha FG820 MKII Acoustic Guitar, Autumn Burst

The Yamaha FG820 MKII, as seen here with a lovely Autumn Burst finish, is an excellent acoustic guitar that’s been developed to offer contemporary players an affordable option when looking to graduate from “complete beginner” to “aspiring professional”.

Classic Tone, Versatile Nature

For more than five decades, the FG series from Yamaha has been offering guitar players a range of incredible choices for their next Acoustic purchase, and during that time the company has continually evolved and improved these guitars to meet the needs of the modern player.

Yamaha FG820 MKII Acoustic Guitar Autumn Burst Highlights

• Combines Yamaha’s acclaimed quality with incredible value for money
• Solid Spruce top with Layered Mahogany back and sides combine for a rich sound with plenty of volume
• Super-smooth neck offers incredible levels of playability
• Ideal for relative beginners looking to take the next step on their guitar-playing journey

Excellent Value For Money

It’s not often that you can get hold of a Solid-Top acoustic guitar for such a fantastic price, but that’s exactly what you’ll be getting here.

Due to the nature of solid Spruce (as opposed to layered) this guitar truly shines when you play it, putting out the kind of volume and clarity normally associated with much more expensive guitars.

In addition to this, the inclusion of Layered Mahogany for the back and sides not only results in a well-balanced voice that’s suitable for most playing styles, but it also won’t be as badly affected by extreme changes in heat or humidity as some other gutiars would, making it the perfect travelling companion.

Made To Be Played

Whilst there may have been many refinements to the FG series of guitars over the decades, there has always been one constant: they’re an absolute dream to play.

With the FG820 this is due to the slim neck being given a matte finish, for an ultra-smooth feel that allows your hand to glide over the entire fingerboard.

This, combined with the comfortable shape of the guitar’s body, makes the FG820 MKII suitable for a wide variety of playstyle and experience levels, whether you’re a relative beginner looking to up your game, or a seasoned professional looking for a new acoustic to take on your travels.
