          Description

          Yamaha's FS3 Red Label concert acoustic guitar features an A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) treated solid Sitka spruce top and scalloped top-bracing, which delivers a rich midrange and low frequency response as well as broken-in tone. The FS3 Red Label also features a solid mahogany back and sides to help produce a warm and woody tone that bolsters the midrange. It also comes with an ebony fingerboard and bridge for added strength and stability.

          Timeless design with modern inspiration

          Yamaha��s ��Red Label�� Folk Guitar series was first launched in 1966 as their first production of steel-string acoustics, which is considered by many as the iconic Yamaha acoustic line. Yamaha��s new Red Label series retains the vintage aesthetic of the original ��60s models��with a semi-gloss finish, open-gear tuners, the original V-shaped headstock with the time-honored "tuning fork" logo and, of course, the red label inside��but uses everything Yamaha has refined and developed over their more than half-century of making acoustic guitars.

          New scalloped bracing

          Yamaha guitars are well known for their balanced sound. However, when defining the voice of Red Label, Yamaha wanted to add more low end for a fuller, warmer tone that would be ideal for solo singer-songwriters and modern folk music. To achieve this, new bracing designs were developed for the FG and FS Red Label guitars, which are optimized for each body shape and the natural characteristics of the tonewoods. The new scalloped bracing delivers plenty of volume and enhances low-frequency response without compromising durability.

          Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E)

          As tonewoods age, they vibrate more freely and become more resonant, producing a louder, more powerful sound with enhanced high-frequency response and more sustain in the lows and low-mids. Yamaha��s Acoustic Resonance Enhancement (A.R.E.) process achieves those same characteristics by using heat, humidity and pressure to simulate the effects of time on the soundboards. The A.R.E. process of accelerating the aging of the wood gives Red Label models the same rich, vintage-quality tone and response of a guitar you��ve been playing for years.
