Here are my main thoughts: To sum up, Yamaha FS800 is a reliable and well-made acoustic guitar with a sound quality that exceeds its modest price tag by far.

Furthermore, the FS800 is smaller and thinner than models from the FG series, which makes it easy and more comfortable to play with.

FG stands for “Folk Guitar,” while FS indicates “Folk Small.” Hence, FG is a bit bulkier than its sibling. Design Authentic, distinct, classic. This FS800 features newly developed scalloped bracing. This specific type of bracing reinforces the FS800's top. Giving it great strength and durability without sacrificing any of its outstanding FG character. Not only does it prevent your acoustic from collapsing under string tension, but it enhances the overall sound too.

As a typical dreadnought acoustic guitar, FG800 is louder than FS800 and more suitable for band playing. On the other hand, FS800 is the better choice for concert solos. FS800 is a typical concert-size acoustic guitar. Its smaller size makes it suitable for playing in cozy country clubs. What Is The Difference Between A Concert And A Dreadnought Guitar?

The FS800 is slightly warmer with a louder sound, compared to the FG800 who has more emphasis on bass and with more sustain. These differences are barely noticeable and the FS800 still continues to surprise with its loud projection even with its size. The latest series of the FS range offers a richer sound with better projection (particularly in the low to mid range) thanks to cutting-edge acoustic analysis techniques developed by our Guitar Research team, where a mix of real-world trials and detailed computer-based modelling andsimulation are used to determine the optimum bracing positions, negating the need for guesswork.

Success

If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered Now for the big question, is there a sound difference between the 800 (this guitar) versus the 820 (mahogany) and 830 (rosewood). I watched a video on YouTube where the guy speaks Chinese, but then plays every Yamaha model 800 to 850 for both concert and dreadnoughts. I did not hear any significant difference between the spruce top 800 to 830 models. The 850 mahogany models sounded a little muffled in comparison though.
