I'm not an accomplished player-- sort of an intermediate-- but I know my way around acoustic guitars a bit. I'm not wealthy and it would be silly to consider a $2,000 guitar, and besides I'm admittedly not such a serious player. I play for the enjoyment, and in hopes of getting better and better. This guitar is exactly right for someone like me. It just arrived, and I inspected it, wiped it down, tuned it, and played it. There are two very minor blemishes in the finish that aren't at all critical; one is a slight wave in the lacquer finish on the top, the other is a tiny dent. The action right out of the box is excellent. No string buzz or any other troubles with the factory setup, but very easy to apply bar chords to, and a nice light touch with the rather light strings. "But what about the sound?", you ask. Very bright, capable of real loudness, beautiful sustain and projection, very balanced throughout the frequency range-- as everyone has already said. For $300, my goodness! This does not sound like an inexpensive guitar. Being mostly mahogany, the guitar is surprisingly light in weight, but I'm accustomed to heavier woods like rosewood and I know it's no reflection on quality. The mahogany back and sides, though laminate, are just gorgeous, and the neck is a very comfortable size and cross section, finished in a matte treatment for good grip. I love the ivory-colored binding and mother-of-pearl Yamaha emblem on the headstock. If you're like me and aren't a professional musician, but appreciate great value and craftsmanship in a beautiful acoustic guitar, I highly recommend this Yamaha FG820. It would be a great starter guitar or for refining your skills, since its playability is so good. For a bit over $300. Amazing. Review: I just like it . Value for the money is reasonable . beginners or professionals alike will surely like it. Intonation stays long and hopefully stays as it is just as long as it is being taken care of . From action comes playability which any guitar player will enjoy . ## Features - Solid Sitka Spruce Top - Mahogany Back & Sides - Rosewood Fingerboard & Bridge - Diecast Tuners - System 66 feature an under-saddle piezo pickup with a 3-band EQ, an adjustable mid-range frequency control, and a precision chromatic tuner for optimum sound tailoring. - this guitar has an adjustable truss rod ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01DW6A652 | | Back Material Type | Rosewood | | Body Material Type | Mahogany | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (238) | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00889025103923 | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | Piezo | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Instrument Size | Dreadnought | | Item Dimensions | 108 x 52.6 x 15.5 centimeters | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 109.2L x 53.3W x 15.2H centimeters | | Item Weight | 3.27 kg | | Manufacturer | Yamaha Musical Instruments | | Manufacturer Part Number | FGX820C BL | | Model Name | FGX820C BL | | Model Number | FGX820C BL | | Neck Material Type | Nato Wood | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 634 millimeters | | String Material Type | Metal | | Top Material Type | Spruce Wood | | UPC | 889025103923 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Back material type:** Rosewood - **Body material:** Mahogany - **Brand:** Yamaha - **Colour:** Black - **Top material type:** Spruce Wood ## Images ![FGX820C, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51mT-Nq5dwL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Configuration, Color, Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***T on 8 August 2023* I couldn't be happier with my new FG820 guitar.
