Yamaha FG-410A

The Yamaha FG-410A is a white-oval-label dreadnought built in Taiwan from 1989 to 1995, with a spruce top, nato back and sides, and a nato neck. The white oval label identifies it as part of Yamaha's Taiwan production run, a label used from 1977 to 2001 on instruments from that factory. Players treat it as a budget Martin D-18 alternative, with rich, full sound projection and balanced acoustic tone. The bubinga fingerboard, pearl dot markers, and black binding are the visual giveaways for the early-nineties Kaohsiung production.
