Our take on the Yamaha FS9 RX NT Guitar 4/4 - Natural

The FS9 RX is Yamaha's flagship concert-body acoustic, built in Japan with an all-solid spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides. The smaller FS body suits fingerstyle players and smaller frames better than a dreadnought, with a balanced, articulate voice and strong midrange. It sits above the FG9 dreadnought in Yamaha's line and competes with all-solid concert guitars from Martin and Taylor on build and tone. Reviewers rate the craftsmanship and setup highly; some find the concert body short on low-end punch for strumming.

Questions and answers

Is the FS9 RX good for fingerstyle?
Yes. The concert body and balanced spruce-rosewood voice favor fingerpicking and light strumming. Heavy strummers may want the larger FG9 dreadnought instead.
How does it compare with the Yamaha FG9?
The FG9 is a dreadnought with more bass and volume. The FS9 RX is smaller and more comfortable, with a more balanced, mid-focused tone.
Is it all solid wood?
Yes. The top is solid spruce and the back and sides are solid Indian rosewood, unlike Yamaha's laminate models.
Does it come with a case?
Yamaha ships the FS9 RX in a hard case. Check the listing for the exact case included.
Is the concert body good for smaller players?
Yes. The smaller FS body is easier to hold and reach around than a dreadnought, which suits smaller frames and seated playing.
