Yamaha FSX3

With the solid FSX3 from the Red Label Series, Yamaha combines traditional 1960s aesthetics with modern and innovative features. Accordingly, a new scalloped bracing in combination with a thermally treated Sitka spruce top on a mahogany body provides a warm, powerful tone with clear bass, nuanced and striking mids, as well as brilliant and radiant treble. In addition, the thermal Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) treatment conveys the sound and sustain of aged wood.

The Yamaha FSX concert shape is a good choice for players who prefer a smaller and more compact body, while offering a slightly brighter sound that complements fingerstyle playing. In addition, a shortened scale length of 634mm provides a comfortable playability, while the chrome-plated open vintage tuners keep the tuning clean.

For stage use, the Atmosfeel pickup is available, which has a piezo sensor in the bridge to capture low frequencies, while a microphone transmits the low and mid frequencies. A newly developed contact sensor is available for the detection of the high frequencies. The result is a full, natural sound with controls that make it easy to get a great plug-in sound. Last but not least a hardbag is already included in the scope of delivery.
