A timeless design crafted for the modern fingerstyle performer.
The Yamaha FS5 Gloss Concert acoustic guitar builds on the legacy of Yamaha's Red Label series, combining vintage aesthetics with modern craftsmanship. Made in Japan, this guitar is tailored for fingerpicked performances, delivering a clear, intimate tone that excels in the high end. With a concert-style body, the FS5 offers a versatile sound with a focused projection, perfect for writing sessions, studio recordings, or intimate live performances. Inspired by the original FG Red Label guitars from the 1960s, this model features a stunning gloss finish and incorporates Yamaha's A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) treatment, which provides the warmth and sustain of aged wood.
Vintage Style With Modern Tonewoods
The FS5 is built with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, delivering a balanced tone with articulate highs and warm lows. The A.R.E. treatment enhances the wood's natural aging process, giving the guitar the sound of a well-aged instrument straight out of the box. Its concert-style body is designed for fingerstyle players, providing clarity and precision in every note.
Designed for Comfort and Precision
The FS5's African mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard offer smooth playability and precision across the fretboard. With a bone nut and saddle, along with ebony bridge pins, the guitar ensures tuning stability and enhanced resonance. Whether you're in the studio or performing live, this guitar's compact size and comfortable neck make it ideal for long playing sessions.
A Workhorse for Studio and Live Performances
The FS5 is a reliable instrument for musicians who demand tonal excellence and craftsmanship. Its vintage-inspired design, combined with Yamaha's modern innovations, makes it a versatile guitar that shines in any musical setting. From fingerpicking to light strumming, this guitar is a perfect companion for any performance.
