A made-in-Japan Red Label concert acoustic-electric built for precision, control, and superior amplified performance.
The Yamaha FSX5II is the flagship concert-body acoustic-electric in the Red Label series, built in Japan with a significant step up in craftsmanship, materials, and tonal refinement. It delivers the focused response of the FS body shape with professional-grade electronics for stage and studio use.
Built in a Concert body style, the FSX5II produces a controlled and articulate voice with tight low end, strong note separation, and excellent dynamic response. Compared to larger dreadnought-style guitars, it offers greater precision and balance, making it ideal for fingerstyle playing, recording, and nuanced performance.
The solid spruce top is treated with Yamaha’s A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement), a proprietary process that gives the guitar a more mature, open tonal character. This results in improved warmth, sustain, and harmonic complexity.
With all-solid wood construction, solid mahogany back and sides, and a 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck, the FSX5II delivers professional-level resonance, stability, and tonal development.
Equipped with Yamaha’s Atmosfeel pickup system, the FSX5II provides exceptional amplified sound at performance-level volumes. It captures the natural depth and resonance of the instrument with clarity and realism, making it ideal for live performance and recording applications.
