I picked up an FS830 Tobacco Sunburst and after playing it for about a year now, the sound has "opened up" a bit and tonally I think it has gained some bass and slightly more volume but, it will never get the projection of a full sized dread. For what you get though, I don't think there is any other guitar on the market that can compete with it for the price. Great sound and tones from a smaller guitar for people like myself who are of a smaller stature or just want a great guitar for travelling as well. Yamaha makes some of the best bang for the buck guitars out there right now and even the lower cost models sound really good and play really well. Cheers!

The new design scalloping on the FG830 requires light or medium strings. I use Martin MSP 4050 custom light phosphor bronze. And I use a string cleaner after every session.

I have four different acoustics. An FG700, FG830, Sigma, and a Guild D240e. They are all dreads, and each has its own tone. Everyday I can't decide which of the four I want to play. Sometimes I'll reach for my Guild because it's the only one with a pickup that I can plug into my amp. And without realizing it, I was able to get my Laney LA20C to have a really good distortion which I prefer over a clean sound.

I've got an fs820 and a taylor 214 koa, gotta say I didnt realise how far out of its price range the fs performs until I got the taylor. If you want an acoustic for around £300 this series is the one to go for.

My FG830 came with the Autumn Bursted finish. Totally beautiful. I'm just not drawn to the standard top cover as seen in most acoustic. I actually favor a dark wooden finish all around a guitar. Gives it a more authentic look to it.

Due to the pandemic, I can't go to the music store (closed) to test out the size/sound of the guitar. I used to own a dreadnaught size guitar a few years ago. Looks like I have to wait a little bit longer. I prefer to touch and hold the guitar in my hand comparing to buying online without even physically touching it or testing it. I like both the FG830 or FG850 models. By the way, great video. I enjoyed watching it. Thanks.
