I am selling my 2025 Yamaha FG830 Natural in excellent condition. This like new Yamaha FG830 was purchased as an open box guitar from a national online retailer, and I have inspected it, cleaned, polished, oiled the fretboard,and restrung with D’Addario EJ-16 light gauge strings. It comes in a Hardshell Case that's in very good condition. This Yamaha FG830 retails on Sweetwater for $429.99 without a case. These Yamaha FG series guitars have always proved to be excellent values in the acoustic guitar market, and this FG830 I have for sale definitely is a great guitar. It comes with a Solid Sitka Spruce Top, and Yamaha's Rosewood laminate back and sides. It's difficult to find another guitar that is this high quality for the player just starting out, or the players who don't have the $$$ to buy a Martin D-28. You can take these Yamaha FG830'S to any open mic, and sound great!! Here at Southern Cross Guitars we can always install a high-quality LR Baggs Element, Hi-Fi, Anthem SL, or a full Anthem pickup system in your new guitar at a discounted price. You can rest assured that we do our best to provide you with a guitar you will love, and we can back that up with 396 5* reviews here on Reverb, and many more sales in our local markets in VA, and SC!!!

An Upgrade to the Best-selling Yamaha FG700

There's even more to love about this newest installment in the Yamaha FG series: the Yamaha FG830 acoustic guitar. Returning is the comfortable dreadnought body style and solid spruce top that players loved in the FG700, with new scalloped bracing to give this acoustic an even bigger low end and better projection for live and recording applications. Its back and sides are made from rosewood, imbuing the FG830 with richness, sparkle, and striking good looks, while the satin-finished slim neck with rounded fret edges gives it comfortable playability. Plus, when paired with Yamaha's own Player Port app available on iOS and Android, the FG830 is the ideal tool for beginners looking to brush up on their playing with convenient access to tips, FAQs, and even a built-in automatic tuner.

A direct upgrade to the Yamaha FG700

The entry-level Yamaha FG700 rocked the guitar-building world with its craftsmanship and smart use of tonewoods. The FG830 takes this design several steps further with scalloped bracing for a punchier tone and better stage projection, and a slimmer, more comfortable tapered neck with gently rounded fingerboard edges. Southern Cross Guitars acoustic players have been fans of the Yamaha FG series for years, and for the price, consider it one of the better values on the market.

Yamaha FG: the best-selling acoustic guitar series in the world

It's not hard to see why Yamaha's FG series is a world best seller: the comfortable dreadnought bodies, professional-grade tonewoods, and fast-playing necks make these acoustics great first instruments for beginners, and solid seconds for seasoned players who need an extra acoustic for the stage or to play around the house.
