The Yamaha FG830 is a dreadnought acoustic guitar featuring a solid Sitka spruce top and rosewood back and sides, delivering rich, resonant tones with impressive sustain. Its adjustable truss rod allows for personalized setup, while diecast tuners ensure tuning stability. With elegant abalone inlay and professional-grade craftsmanship, this guitar offers exceptional value for serious players and weekend warriors alike.

## Description

Rich overtones and improved sustain thanks to the rosewood back and sides deliver improved sound through greater depth. The appearance, with abalone inlay around the sound hole, is more luxurious and an obvious step-up.

Review: You just get more than you pay for - Amazing! - I have a Martin HD28 that I play at home and take to the campground every weekend, April through October. It was the only acoustic I have had for the last few years. I've been wanting a camp guitar for sometime, so that I don't unnecessarily damage the Martin. After a lot of research, I ordered the Yamaha FG830 without ever playing it. It came from The Music Zoo. It arrived in 3 days, double boxed and just well packaged. I have had two Yamaha guitars before AC3R and my first guitar ever FG800, so I expected it to come with the action higher than I like. Just seems to be a Yamaha thing. It came with 12 gauge strings, where I prefer lighter gauge strings. I opened the boxes and looked it over. Just beautiful. Well done. Standard Yamaha Quality. Those folks are perfectionists. I tuned it up and played some chords and did a little finger picking. The sound was amazing, especially for a $430 guitar. But it wasn't set up right for me. So, this morning I did a small truss rod adjustment and sanded the saddle down to get a lower, more playable action. Let me tell you. This is a cannon. I would take this guitar anywhere. The sound is that good. Dare I say, my Martin will remain in its case for a while. I wish Yamaha would make it with a 1.75 inch nut. Man, overall, I am more happy than I should be for this price point. I was all over the map trying to select a camp guitar, and I finally decided on this because of Yamaha's reputation. They may not have the Martin or Taylor name, but you aren't giving up a whole lot for a boatload less money. Very happy. Heck, I might put a pick up in it in the future. I truly believe you could gig with this guitar.
Review: Fantastic acoustic guitar for any sum of money. It's that good! - Given as a gift to my best friend. I unboxed this Yamaha guitar and was astonished to see the build quality at this price point though not surprised at Yamaha. And then, when I played it, it sounded amazing. Only needed a slight fret dressing with a light sanding sponge ( blue tape between the frets to protect ) then a little oil on the nut, a slight polish and wipe down. She's a beauty and my best friend, a pro level player and songwriter is blown away!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which is the best fgx830 or fgx830**
A: even better than fgx830 and fgx830 is the fgx830

**Q: Hi. is it really solid top? love the guitar sound, but i see a little seam going across the top dividing it into two halves? tnx**
A: The top is book-matched solid sitka spruce. All better wood acoustics use the same technique as it gives better resonant vibration across the top. If you look at the center seam, then proceed out on both sides the grain spacing / growth ring pattern is nearly identical. Solid top is used as opposed to plywood / laminated tops used in lower quality instruments.

**Q: Yahama fg 830 is a dreadnought.  other fg830's are bundled with accessories but are not  dreadnoughts.  same price.  i'm a beginner.  what to buy?**
A: FG830 etc. is dreadnought size - no cutaway. FS is concert size (a bit smaller). The FG830C is cutaway.

**Q: Is there a difference in sound quality between the Acoustic / Acoustic - Electric versions?**
A: They will be very similar in sound - the only difference is that you can plug the acoustic/electric into an amplifier.  Thank you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yamaha FS830 acoustic guitar
*by E***K on September 25, 2025*

Yamaha makes very nice acoustic guitars on a budget. I wanted this guitar because it was small enough for me to sit and noodle when I'm sitting on the couch maybe watching TV working on a specific technique. It sounds very nice. It looks good and is a quality product. If something happened to it I would buy again.
