General

This electro-acoustic Yamaha FGX820C BL is a stylish black steel-string guitar that's easy to amplify thanks to the built-in piëzo pickup and preamp. It has a cut-away in the body and an integrated tuner so you can always rely on a tone that can carry far. Its solid spruce top and warm resonating mahogany sides and back are offset nicely with the cream-coloured binding along the body and neck.

Maximum playing enjoyment

The extremely popular Yamaha FG series has been around for the past fifty years in approximately 200 different models. Yamaha ensures that each series features modern upgrades to offer their users maximum playing enjoyment and great value for money as well. The scalloped bracing in this spacious Dreadnought offers enhanced bass and mid tones and the slender neck with rolled fret edges makes playing more comfortable than ever before!

Yamaha FGX820C BL Black electro-acoustic steel-string guitar
Wrote the following about Yamaha FGX820C BL Black electro-acoustic steel-string guitar
Dit is een zeer goede gitaar met een heel warm geluid. Ook de aansluiting met een gitaarversterker loopt zeer soepel en is met de knoppen erg makkelijk in te stellen.

Verder heeft de gitaar een lichte aanslag, waardoor hij makkelijker te bespelen is. Het is een gitaar die ik zeker zou aanraden! De prijs kwaliteit verhouding is zeer goed!
