Updated scalloped bracing ensures a louder, more balanced tone. What’s more, a bone nut and saddle augment the guitar’s tone, giving it a loud, clear voice. A classic V-shaped headstock and eye-catching semi-gloss finish complete the 5FG5 Red Label acoustic.Captures the essence of Yamaha’s iconic Red Label guitars Inspired by Yamaha’s iconic Nippon Gakki Red Label guitars from the 1960s, FG Red Label instruments call to mind the look and feel of the company’s very first steel-string acoustic guitars. These sought-after instruments are cherished for their one-of-a-kind sound and high-end Japanese

Review: Best purchase I’ve made in a long time - The sound; Rich deep bold. The ease of playing. The beauty of it. Quality made. It compares with Martins but the price is so much better as is the maintenance. The setup was perfect.
Review: Great guitar! - Great tone, balance and playability. Sounds better the most guitars that cost twice as much.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best purchase I’ve made in a long time
*by J***R on August 7, 2024*

The sound; Rich deep bold. The ease of playing. The beauty of it. Quality made. It compares with Martins but the price is so much better as is the maintenance. The setup was perfect.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great guitar!
*by S***M on April 4, 2022*

Great tone, balance and playability. Sounds better the most guitars that cost twice as much.

### ⭐⭐ Yamaha FG5 quality subpar after AC5R purchase
*by C***K on June 14, 2023*

I purchased this FG5 new in the box. After owning my AC5R I decided to get one of these given the absolute astounding quality of the AC5R. I understand these are a satin finish but the amount of scratches on this one is just not acceptable. It plays and sounds fantastic but even after contacting Yamaha they agreed this is not what should have left the factory. However, after asking for warranty repair or replacement on this they just asked me to return it to the retailer. The retailer had no more in stock. Please be aware if you get one of these and they don't have enough in stock you'll be stuck with one similar to this. No hope of repair, just a refund. Not really sure why guitar manufacturers market warranties saying they'll cover defects with no intention of honoring those replacement warranties. Yamaha will now be added to this list in my book.
