Yamaha FG720S BK acoustic steel-string guitar black

General

Acoustic guitars from Yamaha have a well-deserved reputation for their durability and quality, and this black FG720S is no exception. Yamaha created the Folk Guitar (FG) series to offer you a first-class instrument for a price that everyone can afford. Whether you're a beginner looking for your first acoustic guitar, or an advanced player who wants an extra reliable guitar, the FG720S has the fantastic sound and playability that only Yamaha can offer in this price class.

Rich sound from the Yamaha FG720S
Much of the sound of an acoustic guitar depends on the wood type of the top, and whether it is solid or laminate. The FG720S has a solid top made of sitka spruce, expertly fitted to a nato (similar to mahogany) body. Yamaha chose spruce because of its rich, outspoken sound and outstanding dynamics. Additionally, solid wood sounds better the older it gets! In contrast, nato supplies a deeper sound with rich mids, and is therefore a beautiful compliment to the vibrancy and definition of the spruce top.

L-series quality for an affordable price
The FG720S makes use of Yamaha's reverse L-block design, which transfers the vibrations of the strings more quickly to the body of the guitar. This results in more depth in your sound and better tone, along with improved stability of the neck joint. The larger rosewood bridge helps the sound carry better from the strings to the top, resulting in bright, clear mids and an overall full and balanced sound. Finally, the FG720S is simply and tastefully decorated with real mother-of-pearl inlays on the headstock and cream coloured bindings along the neck and body.
