Yamaha FS9 RX Premium FS Concert Rosewood/Spruce Acoustic-Electric Guitar with Case

Handcrafted in Japan, the extraordinary projection, clarity and responsiveness of our flagship FG/FS9 steel-string acoustic guitars make them ideal instruments for singer-songwriters.

Body Shapes and Styles

FG/FS9 models offer two body shapes: dreadnought style for FG and concert style for FS. The FG's larger, broader body responds superbly to strumming, with powerful lows and projective tones, while FS's smaller body produces balanced tone with a sensitive response that enhances subtle and detailed arpeggios.

Atmosfeel™ Pickup and Preamp System

Yamaha Atmosfeel three-way pickup system, built into the FG9 RX, FG9 MX, FS9 RX, and FS9 MX, uses a piezo sensor in the bridge to capture low frequencies, a microphone for low and midrange, and our proprietary, thin synthetic sheet soundboard transducer for high frequencies.The result is a full, natural sound with simple controls that make it easy to get great plugged-in tone.

The preamp controls let you blend the microphone sound into the premixed pickup sound. The microphone sound particularly complements solo performers and chordal players, while a lower blend may be preferred by fingerstyle players and guitarists who need to cut through a full band.

The bass knob controls a peaking EQ. The center frequency rises when boosting and lowers when attenuating, so that low frequencies, which could be problematic on stage, can be removed but never added.
