Yamaha FG-441S

The Yamaha FG-441S is a white-oval-label dreadnought built in Taiwan from 1993 to 1999, with a solid spruce top, ovangkol back and sides, and a mahogany neck. The rosewood fingerboard and bridge complete the construction. Owners describe a rich, full sound that comes from the solid-top construction. White-haze blushing on the back finish is the typical aging pattern from moisture under the lacquer.
