Yamaha FS9 Mahogany Concert Acoustic Guitar Natural

The Yamaha FS9 Mahogany concert acoustic guitar provides singer-songwriters with an inspiring instrument handcrafted for expressive performance. Featuring a solid Adirondack spruce top and African mahogany back and sides, the FS9 M produces warm, balanced tones with clear projection. Yamaha employed advanced acoustic analysis in developing the modified Venetian cutaway and scalloped Adirondack X bracing, resulting in an open, resonant sound across the 25" scale.

Premium, Resonant Materials

The FS9 M's solid Adirondack spruce top and African mahogany back and sides generate a warm, balanced tone that projects clearly. Spruce is a lightweight, responsive wood used in the tops of high-quality acoustic guitars. Mahogany adds warmth and depth. Together, these premium tonewoods create an inspiring voice.

Innovative Bracing Enhances Resonance

Yamaha's scalloped Adirondack X bracing pattern improves resonance and sustain. Scalloped bracing involves carving wood away from the braces to make them thinner and more flexible. The X pattern stabilizes the top while allowing it to vibrate freely. You'll hear the difference in the FS9 M's open, ringing tone.

Ergonomic Body Shape and Neck Profile

The FS9 M's modified Venetian cutaway provides comfortable access to higher frets. Its slim, bolt-on neck has an easy-playing modifiedV profile. Together, these ergonomic features allow you to play for long periods without fatigue. TheFS9 M's smaller concert body rests comfortably against your body, ideal for extended practice or performance.

Premium Appointments and Traditional Touches

Handcrafted in Japan, the FS9 M exhibits exquisite attention to detail. It features traditional touches like a washi paper label, rope purfling around the top and Kumiki woodworking-inspired fingerboard markers. Chrome tuners, a Tusq nut and saddle and rosewood bridge pins complete the premium appointments. Overall, the FS9 M is an acoustic guitar that inspires you to create.
