Handcrafted in Japan, the FG9 R steel-string acoustic guitar features an Adirondack spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides—and its extraordinary projection and clarity even under the hardest strumming makes it ideal for singer-songwriters.

• FG dreadnought-style body shape particularly shines with strummed performances
• Adirondack spruce top with scalloped X bracing provides increased power and sensitivity
• Indian rosewood back and sides for rich lows and harmonic overtones
• Mahogany neck with a rounded V-shape offers enhanced comfort and smooth playability

• Bone nut and saddle provide an ideal balance of tonal clarity and sustain, along with consistent performance
• An elegant yet understated Japanese aesthetic gives the instrument a distinctive, one-of-a-kind character
• A nitrocellulose lacquer finish enhances the guitar's resonance and allows for a warm, open sound that improves with age
• Hardshell case included
