Product Description
The Yamaha FGX830CNT is a versatile electro acoustic that delivers the classic FG sound in a comfortable cutaway body with a natural finish. A solid spruce top, rosewood back and sides and scalloped bracing give you a rich, dynamic tone that only gets better the more you play, while the built in System66 electronics let you take that sound straight onto the stage or into the studio.
Designed to offer outstanding value without compromising on feel or reliability, the FGX830CNT is ideal for beginners, developing players and seasoned guitarists alike. Its traditional Western body provides plenty of volume and low end power, while the Venetian cutaway and smooth neck profile keep everything feeling easy and inviting, whether you are strumming big open chords or exploring more intricate fingerstyle parts.
At the heart of the FGX830CNT is a solid spruce soundboard that responds beautifully to your touch. Play softly and it stays clear and articulate; dig in and it opens up with impressive projection and punch. The rosewood back and sides add shimmering highs, strong lows and a sweet, singing sustain, giving you a balanced voice that works across genres from folk and pop to worship and acoustic rock.
When it is time to plug in, Yamaha’s undersaddle SRT piezo pickup and System66 preamp capture the natural acoustic character of the guitar with clarity and detail. Onboard controls for volume, three band EQ, mid frequency and a handy built in tuner mean you can shape your sound and stay in tune directly from the guitar, keeping your setup simple and your focus on the performance.
Solid Spruce Top for Dynamic, Evolving Tone
The FGX830CNT’s solid spruce top is the key to its expressive, responsive sound. Unlike a laminated top, solid spruce vibrates more freely and continues to open up over time, rewarding regular playing with increased richness and resonance. From gentle fingerpicking to hard strumming, it delivers clear note definition and wide ranging dynamics that let your individual style shine through.
Rosewood Back and Sides with Traditional Western Body
Rosewood back and sides combine with Yamaha’s traditional Western body shape to produce a bold, full range acoustic voice. You get deep, rounded bass, sparkling trebles and a strong, present midrange, all supported by plenty of natural volume. Whether you are playing solo or alongside other instruments, the FGX830CNT has the projection and tonal balance to hold its own.
Comfortable Cutaway Neck for Unrestricted Playing
A smooth Venetian cutaway gives you easy access to the upper frets, making lead lines, higher chord voicings and melodic embellishments feel natural and effortless. The comfortable nato neck and rosewood fingerboard offer a familiar, inviting feel for both new and experienced players, encouraging longer, more enjoyable practice and performance sessions.
System66 Electronics with Onboard Tuner
Equipped with Yamaha’s SRT piezo pickup and System66 preamp, the FGX830CNT is ready for any amplified situation. The built in tuner helps you stay perfectly in tune, while the volume, three band EQ and adjustable mid frequency controls let you tailor your sound to different rooms, PAs and musical styles. You get a clear, articulate amplified tone that reflects the character of the guitar, with the flexibility to fine tune it on the fly.
Features

- Traditional Western Cutaway Body - The full sized Western body offers plenty of acoustic power and low end warmth, while the Venetian cutaway provides comfortable access to higher frets, supporting both rhythm work and melodic playing.
- Yamaha System66 Electronics - The SRT undersaddle piezo and System66 preamp give you a reliable, great sounding plug in tone, with volume, three band EQ, mid frequency control and an onboard tuner to keep you in tune and in control on stage.
