Yamaha FSX830C Brown Sunburst Electro-Acoustic Guitar
The Yamaha FSX830C Brown Sunburst brings together the rich acoustic character of the FS830 with the added flexibility of a cutaway body and onboard electronics. With a solid spruce top, rosewood back and sides, and Yamaha’s reliable System66 preamp, this is a comfortable, great-sounding electro-acoustic guitar for home, stage and studio use.
Its smaller concert-style body makes it easy to handle, especially for fingerstyle players or anyone who prefers a more compact acoustic feel. The Brown Sunburst finish gives it a classic look, while the cutaway design makes upper-fret access much easier.
Solid Spruce Top with Rosewood Back and Sides
The FSX 830C is built with a solid spruce top for clear projection, dynamic response and strong note definition. Paired with rosewood back and sides, it produces a full, rich voice with warm lows, detailed highs and plenty of natural overtones.
Comfortable Concert Cutaway Body
The smaller FS body shape is comfortable to hold and easy to play, making it a great choice for fingerpicking, songwriting and everyday practice. The cutaway design gives players better access to the upper frets without sacrificing the balanced tone that makes the FS Series so popular.
Yamaha System66 Electronics
For live performance or recording, the FSX830C is fitted with Yamaha’s under-saddle piezo pickup and System66 analog preamp. This simple, dependable system gives you solid plugged-in performance with easy control over your amplified acoustic sound.
Newly Developed Scalloped Bracing
Yamaha’s scalloped bracing helps the top resonate more freely, giving the guitar a stronger acoustic voice with improved bass response, projection and sustain.
