The FGX800C Mk II benefits from our latest bracing innovation, designed using advanced acoustic analysis techniques. Combining real-world testing with digital simulation, our Guitar Research team has pinpointed the ideal bracing pattern to enhance low and mid-range resonance while keeping the top board stable and durable. The result is a fuller, more dynamic sound across the entire frequency range.

Since launching the original FG180 and FG150 in 1966, Yamahas FG Series has stood for quality, playability and long-lasting value. For more than half a century, each new generation has built on this legacy, refining the design while keeping the soul of the FG intact. The FGX800C Mk II continues this tradition, offering dependable performance for modern players.

Every part of the FGX800C Mk II has been made with care. From carefully dried and cured tonewoods to the smooth, hand-sprayed finish, the build quality reflects our commitment to making a guitar that feels right from the first strum and will keep going for years to come.

The FGX800C Mk II is fitted with Yamahas System66 preamp and pickup system, specially developed to bring out the natural tone of the guitar when amplified. It features a precision under-saddle piezo pickup, a 3-band EQ, a sweepable mid-range control and a built-in chromatic tuner. Powered by standard AA batteries, its ready to go wherever your music takes you.
