12-string dreadnought style acoustic guitar with solid top and natural finish
With the Yamaha FG 820-12 NT II Natural, the Japanese manufacturer Yamaha presents a traditional 12-string acoustic guitar in dreadnought construction, which features powerful, warm bass frequencies and a clean finish. A construction consisting of a solid spruce top and a laminated mahogany body produces a quick responsive sound that unfolds very much in both the mid and treble frequencies. Due to a flat scalloped bracing and a razor-thin finish, every single note is fully developed even with light touches and resonates persistently in the overtones. In addition, a flat Nato neck with a walnut fingerboard provides a remarkably gentle playing feel in all positions and, in combination with a narrow nut width of 46 mm, allows for a clean grip in all 20 frets. A bridge inlay and a finely notched nut made of urea contribute significantly to precise intonation over the entire scale length of 650 mm, so that perfect results are also achieved when playing with a capo. In addition, high-quality, chrome-plated die-cast tuners allow easy tuning of the 12 steelstrings, which end in a bridge made of rough-grained walnut. The Yamaha FG 820-12 NT II Natural 12-string dreadnought acoustic guitar is completed with a classy high-gloss finish.

12-string acoustic guitar in dreadnought construction with 650 mm scale length
Solid spruce top with multi-ply binding and tortoise pickguard
Needs new strings, too much buzzing with the stock strings. Looks are amazing for the SB 2. Could be my inexperience but it needs too much pressure to play decent on 1. and 2. fret. Going for low tension strings now and working on my finger placement.
