The
YAMAHA FX310IIA Dreadnought acoustic guitar offers outstanding quality at a truly budget price. The lively sound from the spruce/meranti body has a bright, sweet resonance not unlike Yamaha’s renowned FGs, and real rosewood is used for the fingerboard and bridge. The handling comfort of the slightly reduced body depth and intermediate scale length will be particularly appreciated by younger players. The sound is realistically acoustic-like, with an excellent tonal balance across the strings. An ideal choice for the first-time acoustic buyer.
Meranti is a durable and available tropical hardwood that originates from Southeast Asia. Its physical properties are similar to Mahogany, making an excellent low-cost substitute for it.
