Concert Body with solid spruce top and body made of Okume and Nato
With the FS 800 SDB, Yamaha offers a compact concert body that is ideal for smaller people. A solid spruce top is enthroned on a body of Nato and Okume, delivering clear bass, striking and nuanced mid-range and brilliant treble. The conventional bracing has been reworked and tapered at essential points. This so-called "Scalloped Bracing", in cooperation with a wafer-thin finish, provides a more intensive sound with improved resonance and radiance. The compact body is ideal for fingerstyle and light strumming. In addition, the chrome-plated die-cast tuners keep the tuning clean, while a compensated bridge inlay of urea ensures clean intonation and a flat string position.
