It feels great to play, stays comfortable during longer sessions, and has held its tuning surprisingly well right out of the box. I’ve always had good experiences with Yamaha products in general, and this guitar continues that trend for me. The sound is warm and balanced, and it feels like a solid value for the price. One thing I noticed from reading previous reviews before buying was that some people recommended carefully inspecting the guitar for cosmetic or shipping defects when it arrives. I made sure to look over every inch of mine when I got it, and thankfully mine came in perfect condition with no issues at all. Overall, this has been a great acoustic guitar and feels like a reliable choice whether you’re newer to playing or just want a solid everyday acoustic. Review: Good price , great beginners guitar - This is the 2 nd guitar I bought this month . Both from desertcart and both Yamahas . I just started beginners guitar lessons and bought the classical guitar in error (nylon strings and a little bit bigger of a neck ) It plays nice however I have small hands and was struggling learning the different chords . So I did some research and saw that this guitar had steel strings and was smaller . It is perfect . So happy I ordered this one. Going to keep the classical too as they are both nice In the pic the classical is not on a stand ## Features - [IDEAL FOR BEGINNERS] Whether learning your first chords or writing songs, the FG800J is the ideal instrument for beginners. - [QUALITY CRAFTMANSHIP] From carefully chosen woods to beautiful, hand-applied finishes and detailed quality control checks, each and every FG is created to be a lifelong partner. - [SOUND] The FG800J’s solid spruce top and large body yields a bright, balanced tone and bold low-end projection. - [MATERIALS] Nato and mahogany back and sides for warm, full-bodied tone and lasting resilience. - [DETAILS] Quality hardware and appointments for reliable performance, year after year. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BYFC65L7 | | Back Material Type | Rosewood | | Back material type | Rosewood | | Body Material Type | Mahogany | | Body material | Mahogany | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Color | Natural | | Colour | Natural | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 339 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Instrument | guitar | | Instrument Size | Dreadnought | | Item Dimensions | 102.9 x 41.2 x 11.8 centimeters | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 102.9L x 41.2W x 11.8H centimeters | | Item Type Name | Beginner Solid Spruce Top Traditional Western Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar With Rosewood FIngerboard, Natural Finish | | Item Weight | 2.3 kg | | Manufacturer | Yamaha PAC | | Manufacturer Part Number | FG800J NT | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | FG800 | | Model Number | FG800J NT | | Neck Material Type | Nato Wood | | Neck material type | Nato Wood | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 25.5 inches | | Sound Profile | Bright, Balanced with Strong Bass Response | | String Material Type | Phosphor Bronze | | Top Material Type | Spruce Wood | | Top material type | Spruce Wood | | UPC | 889025138161 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Back material type:** Mahogany and nato - **Body material:** Mahogany - **Brand:** Yamaha - **Colour:** Natural - **Top material type:** Spruce Wood ## Images ![FG800J Solid Top Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar, Natural - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716FKVh1XLL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why is this cheaper on the sp website?** A: don't know what sp website is, but it';s 199.99 everywhere **Q: How many frets?** A: 20 frets **Q: Is the box it ships in protective?** A: Double thickness corrugated cardboard box. And guitar is enclosed in a thin padded-foam shipping bag within the box. Mine arrived without a scratch. **Q: Beginner. I'm a 5'11" man with a gut. Feels like dreadnought is putting fretting hand in a bad position. Would the concert model work for me?** A: Yes, I'm also 5'11" with a gut and this guitar is the exact reason I bought it. I have a takamine and sometimes my gut gets in the way of me reaching the frets correctly so I bought this guitar. I like it, easy to play but have to admit I haven't played it much in the last year. Been too busy with work and everything else. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Sounding Guitar With Solid Quality Control *by B***H on 2 June 2026* I’ve been really happy with this guitar so far.
