The new "FG/FS Red Label Series" is a much-anticipated new series for Yamaha fans, which pursues a loud and modern design suited to the contemporary music scene, while maintaining the design philosophy of the FG guitars, which were designed to meet the tastes of the Japanese people. The sound of the new "FG/FS Red Label Series" is characterized by a newly designed bracing that has been improved through a combination of pseudo prototyping using the latest acoustic analysis simulation technology and a prototyping process using woodworking, and while utilizing the raw sound and sound characteristics that are characteristic of the mid-low range, further improving the low-frequency sound. The new bracing is designed to improve the natural acoustic guitar sound, while taking advantage of the raw sound and sonic characteristics of the mid and low frequencies. In addition to the non-pickup models, the series also includes electric acoustic guitars equipped with the newly developed "Atmosfeel" pickup system. This new pickup system takes advantage of the high frequency characteristics of the guitar's surface plate vibration to reproduce the guitar's sound with natural nuances that cannot be picked up by conventional pickups, allowing acoustic guitars to express their true sound on stage. The FSX3 is a popular type of the FG/FS Red Label series, equipped with Atmosfeel pickups and featuring a fork-type body shape. Main Features 1. design reminiscent of the FGs of yesteryear The traditional V-shaped head features the Yamaha tuning fork logo, and the truss rod cover, the trademark of the FG, is engraved with the year 1966, the origin of the Yamaha folk guitar, giving it an appearance reminiscent of the FG of yesteryear. Furthermore, a newly developed semi-gloss coating has been applied to give it a vintage look. The smooth feel and comfortable grip of the neck shape ensure high playability. The open-gear pegs, wood-grain pickguard, and other details have been designed to be simple yet timeless. 2. 2. pursuit of sound optimized for each body shape based on acoustic analysis The "FG / FS Red Label Series" is made of all solid wood with a front board of Sitka spruce and a back board of mahogany. The front board is treated with our proprietary Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) wood modification technology, which produces changes similar to those of wood that has been aged for a long time. The result is a rich sound as if the instrument had been played for many years even though it is brand new, and a powerful resonance with the warm mid-low range that only mahogany wood can provide. The bracing is made through a prototyping process that includes the latest acoustic analysis simulation, and a unique scallop process is used for each of the "FG" and "FS" body shapes. Furthermore, the sound was adjusted to suit each body shape in pursuit of a sound optimized for each model. By combining the latest acoustic analysis simulation and skilled craftsmanship, improvements were made in both sound and quality, resulting in the evolution of the new "FG" and "FS" models. 3. 3. newly developed Atmosfeel pickup system The "FGX" and "FSX" pickups are equipped with the newly developed Atmosfeel 3-way hybrid system, which uses a thin and durable piezoelectric synthetic paper contact sensor to collect high frequencies from the vibration of the guitar's surface plate. The Atmosfeel uses a thin and durable piezoelectric synthetic paper contact sensor to collect the high frequencies from the vibrations of the guitar's surface plate, reproducing the sound components of the guitar with natural nuances that conventional pickups cannot pick up. The under-saddle pickup collects the vibration of the strings, the condenser microphone mounted inside the body collects the airiness inside the body of the guitar, and the contact sensor pickup on the back side of the front board collects the sound of the front board. The three sounds are combined to reproduce the natural acoustic sound of the guitar in its entirety. 4. A wide range of 8 models to choose from according to your preferences The "FG / FS Red Label Series" lineup includes eight models with a choice of two body types and electrical specifications. The "FG" is a traditional western body model with a rich bass range that responds to powerful stroke playing, while the "FS" is a small body size model with a full sound with good grain. Both the "FG" and "FS" series feature a 634mm scale, which, together with the easy-to-grip neck shape, provides high playability. The lineup also includes electric and acoustic versions, allowing customers to choose according to their preferences and applications. The #5 grade (FG5, FS5, FGX5, FSX5) is a made-in-Japan model, handcrafted in Japan by skilled technicians. Due to the nature of the product, the grain and coloration may vary from piece to piece.
