Yamaha FG5 Red Label Dreadnought Acoustic, Made in Japan Overview
Inspired by Yamaha's iconic "Red Label" guitars of the 1960s, the new Yamaha FG5 Red Label guitar blends modern inspiration with a timeless design.
Featuring a classic semi-gloss finish and high-quality components, Red Label guitars capture an authentic vintage aesthetic. The mahogany back and sides are paired with a premium Sitka spruce top that's treated with Yamaha's Acoustic Resonance Enhancement process for genuine aged-wood tone and sustain. A new scalloped-bracing design delivers plenty of volume, while the groundbreaking Atmosfeel three-way pickup system provides a natural acoustic sound when amplified. Yamaha Red Label sound and feel like you've been playing them for years - right from the very first note.
