Yamaha's FG Series FG830 is a full-sized traditional dreadnought acoustic guitar with a solid spruce top, rosewood back and sides and a tobacco brown sunburst finish. Suited to both solo performance or playing with a full band, the FG830 utilizes a newly developed scalloped bracing design which results in a powerful and balanced acoustic sound with stronger lows and mids than its predecessors.
The FG830 features a nato neck with a smooth matte finish for ease in playing and is equipped with a set of chrome die-cast tuners on the headstock. The fingerboard and bridge are both made of rosewood, while the nut and saddle are made from urea. Additional features include black ABS bridge pins to secure the strings, cream body binding, abalone with black and white soundhole inlay, and a tortoise-patterned pickguard.
