This is one of the best reviews I’ve seen on KZitem and I’ve watched a lot of them. I do own this guitar and enjoy learning to play on it. Outstanding job with the video

3:00 - no, you're mistaken. Only top deck is solid wood. Back and sides are laminate. I have this guitar in black color.

Okay. I did some digging but couldn't find definitive description on the back, so I looked at the grain on the inside and on the back. They seemed to match enough to my eye. I appreciate the correction!

The back and sides are definitely laminate. The entire FG/FS line are solid tops and laminate back and sides. One of my guitars is the FS TA, which is essentially the FS820 with the transacoustic pick up and has laminate mahogany back and sides. And my FG800 has laminate nato back and sides with the solid spruce top. The specs are pretty well documented and shouldn't be much of a hassle to find.

Back and sides are 100% laminated. All 800 series laminated. But one great review. Guitar sounds great for price regardless type woods on back and sides. I own the 830 and 820. My Martin hd-28 cost 10 times the money. Just unreal the price for just a little bit better guitar. A gain great review! THANKS

Thanks, Jeff! Yeah, someone else commented about the back and sides. Still a great guitar for the price. She's a keeper for sure. I have a Taylor 710, their version of the D-28. The prices of the Taylor and Martin are insane in a lot of ways. While the sonic properties are a lot better to my ear, the Yamaha still sounds and plays as good as some high end guitars I have played over the years. Peace!

Have the 800 Version in tinted. Only two wishes are a wider string spacing at the Bridge and out of the box a second strap pin. Fantastic guitar.

Yeah, for fingerstyle, the neck at the nut is just a bit narrow. Still, as you say, a fantastic guitar for the price! Peace.

I have an FG830, and mine sounds better than the D-28 I played at the Martin Factory Tour. Maybe a one-off, but it shows just how good these guitars are.

Yeah, it's weird how that works sometimes. I played a few models of the Yamaha guitars in the store (small place in Indian town); they all sounded nice, but I chose the concert size because I have dreads already. Quite happy!

Whats the difference in the 830? Is it just cosmetic?
@outsmartyourguitar9879
4 ай бұрын
Hi, Jim. Great question. Actually, the 830 is rosewood back and sides. Beyond that, yes, it is cosmetic in appearance. The sound of the rosewood will be a bit "darker", even with the laminate back and sides, and not quite as bright as the mahogany of the 820. But the sound will be functionally the same beyond that in projection and volume. Playability will be almost identical. You'll need to have the action adjusted to your tastes, though, just as I did, because it is rather high out of the box. Apart from that, just a new set of strings (factory strings are usually okay, but not great) and you're good to go!

thank you! How would this compare to the Yamaha Storia III? it‘s even cheaper and has a tone pick-up built in…

You're welcome! I haven't played the Storia III, so I am unable to give you an assessment of how well it plays. The best thing to do is go out and play one and compare it with other guitars to see how it stands against them. Cheers!
