  • Beautiful color, lovely sound
Style: Acoustic Size: Concert Color: Autumn Burst Configuration: Guitar Only
I wanted to get back into playing guitar, but my old dreadnought was too large and I lost motivation. After reading many reviews, I decided to get the Yamaha FS820. The small body size is perfect for my smaller hands, and the Autumn Burst color is so beautiful! (I don't have a photo, but it looks even better than in the product photo.) It sounded great right out of the box -- very little tuning needed. The action is really good too, so I've been able to practice 20 minutes at a time without hurting my fingertips. Really pleased with this purchase. ... show more

  • This is a high quality guitar.
Style: Acoustic Size: Concert Color: Autumn Burst Configuration: Guitar Only
Just got my FS820 yesterday at about 3pm. It was pretty cold so I let it warm up before tuning it. Since it came with 12s (and I usually play 11s) I tuned it flat. No problems with that. Played it for a little bit looking for the places of fret buzz and could not find any. The neck and frets are a good match for my hand and the frets are not sharp and this guitar is just straight out of the box. The strings are not to my liking but I played for over an hour last night and enjoyed the sound quite a bit. It has a nice tone and every part of the sound (highs, mids, lows) were to my liking. This is the FS so it is like a OOO and has the Autumn Burst color which is pretty nice. Although I could tell that the sides are laminate, the top is solid spruce and it sounds really good for an inexpensive guitar. On one song I was playing, "The Garden Song" it actually sounded better than my Martin JC15E. This is a nice guitar and worth the cost, it is an excellent guitar for beginners and for a travel guitar. I recommend it for anyone that wants a nice looking, sounding and playing guitar that they can keep in the living room and not be too worried about someone bumping into it. A home-run for Yamaha, and it is made in China - which is kind of mind blowing. Okay, a little later the next day I noticed that there were stress marks in the varnish below the bridge, there is no bow and no bulge and the stress marks line up to where they are not annoying so I am going to keep the guitar at this point. ... show more

  • as it is the best reviewed "budget' guitar out there apparently
Style: Acoustic Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural Configuration: Guitar Only
After much research, I purchased this guitar, as it is the best reviewed "budget' guitar out there apparently. It didn't let me down. Beautiful sound, great classic style. Even the factory string that it came pre strung with sounded great. A week later, it is still holding tune reasonably well. A great guitar for a first timer, or someone looking for an extra guitar for travel or fun. ... show more

  • Looks like a Martin, Sounds like an Autoharp
Style: 12-String Acoustic Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural Configuration: Guitar Only
Remember those zingy autoharps from grade school music class? Yeah, those. New this guitar has a bit of this vibe, but what do you expect from a $300 guitar? Solid, entry-level 12 string guitar. Excellent action and play-ability right out of the box. Love the look -- copied right from a Martin dreadnought. Big square shoulders. Thick gloss finish. Stays in tune. My only complaint--and it is a fairly major complaint--is that the sound does not match the look, at least out of the box. They CLAIM that this has been revoiced with scalloped bracing for a bassier and more robust sound. I don't hear it. It sounds like they put on extra light strings and overbraced to avoid warranty issues. This is EXTREMELY bright sounding. It is a solid-top guitar so that brightness might disappear over time with some aggressive strumming; every new guitar will only get better with playing. I did strung ‘er with mediums and raised the action with a new bone bridge saddle: much better, more robust. I'm excited to see what how this baby will sound in a year. ... show more

  • Looks great, but I have to return it
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Concert Color: Brown Sunburst Configuration: Guitar Only
Exactly what I was looking for. But, the one I got had multiple issues. Sharp fret ends, nut was cut wrong and fretted out in several places and an odd rattle on the B string that I couldn't find a source for. Don't need that hassle so I'm returning it. Shame.

  • Purchased FG 820L and Glad I Did!
Style: Left-Handed Acoustic Size: Dreadnought Color: Natural Configuration: Guitar Only
I’ve been playing a classical Yamaha guitar for almost 40 years, though I am very much an amateur. Recently I made the decision to get better and felt that the classical guitar style was a hindrance. So, time for a new acoustic guitar. After much online research and a few trips to the local Guitar Center store I narrowed the field to to the FG 820L and the Taylor Big Baby (a $400 + guitar). Then the other day I noticed that a FG 820L was available via the Amazon Warehouse for $100 off the listed price — was labeled as in “very good” condition. After convincing myself that I could return the guitar if its condition wasn’t up to par, I took the plunge, and I’m glad I did. The guitar arrived in a damaged box but was in mint condition. This is one beautiful guitar and is so much easier to play than my old classical guitar (which I will keep and restring back for my weird right handed friends). I know it sounds cliche but this guitar almost plays itself. It has a wonderful full resonant sound and requires very little pressure to play chords. So far the only downside is that the highs ring more than I am used to but I am sure I will get used to it. Also it is bigger and heavier than I remembered. So if you are planning on traveling around with it, that might be a factor. However, for $220, I am a very fortunate and happy customer. ... show more

  • Outstanding value for money
Style: Acoustic-Electric Size: Concert Color: Natural Configuration: Guitar Only
I purchased the Yamaha FSX820C based on YouTube reviews from various sites. I wanted a slightly smaller and easier to play concert-sized guitar compared to my 45-year old Guild D40 dreadnought. I have been amazed at the value for money for this guitar. The sound quality is excellent and ease of play is fantastic right out of the box. The guitar is resonant, presumably due to the solid spruce top and scalloped bracing. I purchased the model with electronics, and when connected to my little Yamaha THR5A amp practice amp it sounds fantastic. In my opinion, you cannot go wrong purchasing this guitar. It truly is a great purchase for both beginners and seasoned guitarists alike. ... show more
