It is indeed a Yamaha ... I actually have a 6- and 12-string by that brand, both "FGX" models, according to the labels. I think they might be at the lower end of the Yamaha line of guitars, as they don't strike me as being of particularly good quality now that I've played them for a number of years.

Looking back, I probably would have bought a couple of Seagull guitars (apparently hand-crafted, Canadian-made instruments) at the time I wound up buying a four-guitar package set along with the Fender Squire bass and a nylon-string classical. Oh well, hindsight is always 20-20 and there's always time (though currently not the money LOL) to upgrade.
