Review: Great guitar at this price point - This is a great guitar at that price point. Has very high quality tuners on it. A beautiful finish and a nice mellow sound, not quite as bright as a spruce top guitar but it is beautiful sounding. One reviewer mentioned that the original shipping box from Yamaha was badly torn, mine was also and I thought the guitar was damaged but when I took it out and looked at it there was not a scratch on it. I am amazed that that guitar was not damaged the way the box looked. My guitar came from cream City music in Wisconsin, they inspected the guitar and did a player set up on it before they shipped it. All that being said, this is not just a beginner's guitar this is for an intermediate guitar player. I'm sure you'll enjoy this guitar Review: A Yamaha Triumph! - A solid mahogany top, beautiful workmanship, charming sound and intoxicating beauty that will lead you into the guitar. Mellow and deep lows with an exacting midrange with bright but not overwhelming highs. Made from all Mahogany, this solid top guitar conjures soft jazz, quiet ballads and exacting accuracy for the occasional classical piece. It’s definitely a steel string guitar, but let your hands and heart control the soft tones that only Mahogany can provide. Mother of pearl inlay, newly designed scalloped bracing for the top design allows for truer tones, resonance and intonation. The stock tuning keys are accurate and snug, and produce no interference with the typically thin strings trusted by Yamaha. I selected .10 to 52. Nicely satisfied and proud to add this to a 38 year old collection of Yamaha guitars. The fit and finish is as nice as expected and will be a conversation starter. Highly recommend. ## Features - Solid Mahogany Top - Mahogany Back & Sides - Rosewood Fingerboard - Rosewood Bridge - Diecast Tuners - this guitar has an adjustable truss rod ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01CFOAIJQ | | Back Material Type | Mahogany | | Best Sellers Rank | #64,092 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #142 in Steel-String Acoustic Guitars | | Body Material | Mahogany | | Body Material Type | Mahogany | | Brand | YAMAHA | | Brand Name | YAMAHA | | Color | Natural | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 82 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | No pickups | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Included Components | Guitar | | Instrument | guitar | | Instrument Size | Dreadnought | | Item Dimensions | 42.5 x 20.7 x 6.1 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 42.5"L x 20.7"W x 6.1"H | | Item Weight | 0.27 g | | Manufacturer | Yamaha PAC | | Manufacturer Part Number | FG850 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | FG850 | | Model Number | FG850 | | Neck Material Type | Wood | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Strings | 6 | | String Material Type | Phosphor Bronze | | Top Material Type | Mahogany Wood | | UPC | 889025103862 | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer warranty yamaha corporation of america (yamaha) is proud of the experience and craftsmanship that goes into every product we represent.
