Yamaha FG-350D
The Yamaha FG-350D is an orange label dreadnought built at Nippon Gakki in Japan in the first half of the eighties, with a solid spruce top, Indian rosewood back and sides, and a nato neck. It was a non-export model intended for the Japanese domestic market, so clean examples in the States arrived through more recent imports rather than original retail. Buyers dating their instrument should note that the FG-350D spans two label eras: the orange label, used on Japanese domestic production from 1974 to 1985, and the white oval label, which identifies Taiwan-built examples and ran from 1977 to 2001. The model was produced from 1980 to 1986 overall. Owners describe versatility across registers and volumes that suits both pickers and strummers. No prominent players are documented in association with this model, but its dreadnought body and solid top construction have made it a practical choice among players seeking a well-built vintage Japanese acoustic.
