  • It's new guitar day! #ngd Trying out the Yamaha FS800.
    It's concert sized so comfortable to hold, has a solid sitka top, laminate back and sides and scalloped X bracing. It's a great choice for a beginner's guitar.

    Nice, I just got my fs830 tobacco sunburst, sounds and plays beautifully for a $300! Rock on man!

      Thanks for watching. It's great value for money. There are very few other guitars at this price point which play and as good. Enjoy your new FS830!

    I have a fs800 and out of the pack was a little boxy and i didn't really like the tone that much, so i put a set of elixirs on it and wow what a difference it made, more open and with chime.

      Just bought an FG461s with D'Addarios Extra Light on which sounded very tinny. Put on a set of Elixir Lights and as you say " wow "

    Good pickin. These are sweet, understated and feather weight guitars.

      Cheers for watching and commenting, man. Yeah, they're very light for their size. The FS feels significantly lighter than say the Eastman 0M I have.

    I have one. It is good. The neck is rather this but that is okay. It is inexpensive relative to the quality. Probably an FG 830 for more money is a better choice but still if you want a small body guitar this is fine

    • @scoggers1628
      @scoggers1628  Місяць тому

      Yeah, a slightly thicker neck would suit my preferences as would a marginally wider nut. For the money it's very hard to beat though. I can't say I've played the 830 models much, but I think for a beginner's guitar which you can grow into and keep for a reasonable amount of time, you can't go wrong with the various FG/FS 800-850 models.

      @@scoggers1628 yes an ideal choice for beginners but I have been playing for years and own several high end guitars but these FS/FG models are enjoyable to play even for more experienced players - nothing to sneeze at for any guitar player

    I always thought the FS800 was a small bodied parlour guitar. Looks full size to me.

      For sure. You can't ask for much more at this price. It's an ideal beginner's guitar but one you can grow into and keep for years.

    Yamaha fs 800 vs fg 800 wich better?

    • @scoggers1628
      @scoggers1628  9 місяців тому

      Well, they're different shaped and sized guitars so there's no clear answer to that. Their build quality and materials are the same, so it's more useful to consider; better for what (finger style, strumming, flatpicking, all-rounder etc.) and better for who, which depends on the skill and size of the player and what they intend to use it for.

    What strings size is that?

    • @scoggers1628
      @scoggers1628  Рік тому +1

      They’re just the ones which came with the guitar, so I’d guess 12-53.

    Is that the Tinted model, pls?

    • @scoggers1628

      Yes, it is. The standard model has a lighter-coloured top.
