People buy an FG800 because it sounded good enough to buy, no try a set of EXP17 and you will be amazed of how great sounding this little gem is.

Nice guitar, and definitely a good choice-but I would say that!

My 'L' series guitars came with Yamaha FS50BT coated strings which sound and feel very similar to Elixir 80-20 Nanowebs. They aren't easy to find but are very good. I normally stick with Elixir light gauge 80-20, 12-53 Nanowebs.

Will do... Got a variety pack of D'addarios ready to go when I wear these out .... Was hoping to find the cutaway electric version or FS800 on sale today...... Would be a nice Father's Day present to myself. 😳😳
