Yamaha Red Label FG5 41" Dreadnought Solid Sitka Spruce Top Acoustic Guitar (FG 5)

The Yamaha Red Label FG5 recalls the company’s now-legendary 1960s-era Nippon Gakki Red Label acoustic guitars. That said, it’s been retooled to meet the demands of modern guitarists. A solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany body yield maximum resonance and tone, which are further enhanced by Yamaha’s A.R.E. wood torrefication process.

A classic V-shaped headstock and eye-catching semi-gloss finish complete the Red Label FG5.
