Yamaha FG-330

The Yamaha FG-330 is a dreadnought produced from 1977 to 1981, built in Japan and Taiwan, with a spruce top, agathis back and sides, and a nato neck. Depending on origin and year, examples may carry a black label, an orange label (Japan only), or a white oval label (Taiwan only). A lower-tier model in the FG line, survivors more often come in original chipboard cases than hard cases, and well-played examples tend to keep low action and a straight neck after fresh string changes.
