Yamaha make quite a few different sizes.

Found success by taking a soldering iron with the blade attachment to a planet waves sound hole cover to trim it down.

I once had an acoustic bass with an oval sound hole and the last resort was gaffer and card. Ugly but works perfect.

Hi High & Dry...
There is a company named LuteHole dot com which makes laser cut feed back suppressors in many sizes, and they let some of the acoustic sound out instead of being a total sound blocking, total tone sucking black rubber plug.

I like them because they work just as good, and look far nicer.

I have them for two of my acoustics and they are awesome.

Ok Thanks. i have seen that I think. they are pricy-but I guess it is a one time thing. extra $16 for non 4 inch sizes. i think om size is 3.75"
but they work just as well? they do look cool
