Description

Handcrafted in Japan, the Yamaha FG7 RX is a premium dreadnought electro-acoustic that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern performance. With its solid Sitka spruce top, solid Indian rosewood back and sides and Yamaha’s advanced Atmosfeel electronics, it delivers a bold, expressive acoustic voice that translates beautifully on stage, in the studio or at home. Designed as part of Yamaha’s flagship FG/FS7 Series, the FG7 RX focuses on power, clarity and dynamic response. The full-size FG dreadnought body offers a commanding low end and strong projection, while the carefully voiced scalloped X-bracing and all-solid construction ensure superb sensitivity and nuance. Whether you are strumming big open chords, flatpicking melodies or accompanying your voice, this is a guitar that rewards a refined touch and inspires confident playing. Premium tonewoods and components run throughout. A one-piece African mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle and Gotoh SXN510 tuners all contribute to a refined feel and rock-solid tuning stability. Traditional Japanese-inspired detailing, including a wooden rope-pattern soundhole inlay and understated black and cream body binding, give the FG7 RX a quietly luxurious aesthetic that feels every bit as special as it sounds. Plugged in, the Yamaha Atmosfeel system captures the guitar’s natural acoustic character with impressive realism. By combining a piezo sensor, internal microphone and proprietary contact sensor, Atmosfeel delivers a full-range, three-dimensional sound that sits perfectly in a mix without the harshness or quack often associated with under-saddle pickups. Simple, intuitive controls let you shape your tone quickly, so you can focus on the performance rather than the gear. All-Solid Tonewoods for a Rich, Expressive Voice The FG7 RX pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid Indian rosewood back and sides, a classic combination prized for its balance of power, warmth and clarity. The scalloped X-bracing allows the top to move more freely, enhancing projection and dynamic range. The result is a guitar with deep, piano-like lows, clear, singing trebles and complex overtones that respond beautifully to both light fingerstyle and heavy strumming. Premium Japanese Craftsmanship Built in Japan as part of Yamaha’s top-tier FG/FS7 Series, the FG7 RX benefits from meticulous attention to detail and consistently high build quality. The one-piece African mahogany neck offers excellent stability and a reassuringly solid feel, while the semi-gloss finish keeps the playing surface smooth and fast. Every element is carefully executed to provide a dependable, inspiring instrument that will stand up to years of regular use. Atmosfeel Electronics for Natural Plugged-In Tone Yamaha’s Atmosfeel system is designed to reproduce the guitar’s acoustic sound as faithfully as possible when amplified. A piezo sensor captures the low frequencies, an internal microphone focuses on the low and midrange, and a proprietary contact sensor adds detail and sparkle to the highs. With dedicated controls for master volume, mic blend and bass EQ, you can quickly dial in a balanced, natural tone that works for solo performance, full band settings or recording. Refined Playability and Elegant Aesthetics The 650 mm scale length, 44 mm nut width and 400 mm fingerboard radius strike a comfortable balance for both chord work and single-note lines. The ebony fingerboard and bridge add a smooth, responsive feel under the fingers, while bone nut and saddle help maximise sustain and note definition. Visually, the natural gloss finish, tortoise-pattern pickguard, black and cream binding and wooden rope-pattern rosette create a timeless, understated look that will appeal to players who appreciate subtle, tasteful design.
