AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
VDS6550
The Yamaha Red Label FG3 captures the soulful punch of Yamaha’s classic ’60s Red Label acoustics and refines it for today’s players. A solid Sitka spruce top treated with Yamaha’s A.R.E. torrefaction pairs with solid mahogany back and sides to deliver a lively, “opened-up” voice—woody lows, focused mids, and clear, ringing trebles with excellent projection. Updated scalloped bracing further boosts volume and balance, making the FG3 a responsive strummer and an articulate fingerpicker.
A fast, comfortable African mahogany neck joins an ebony fingerboard and bridge for a smooth, premium feel. Vintage-styled touches like the V-shaped headstock, open-gear Gotoh tuners, and semi-gloss finish round out the aesthetic, while modern build precision ensures rock-solid intonation and stability. From coffeehouse sets to studio takes, the FG3 delivers inspiring tone and timeless character.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
Please note that returns will not be accepted for variations in timber grain / colouring, finish variations and parts colouring, unless there is a fault with the instrument. If you have any questions at all regarding an instrument's appearance, just drop us a line - we're always happy to send photos, and if we have more than one instrument in stock you'll be able to choose the exact guitar that you receive!
