APXT2 3/4-Size Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Black

I would not use this as an acoustic travel guitar by choice, there are others that sound better, the very small shallow body is never going to sound very full. But I bought is as a guitar to play through a PA system, and it has a really good pickup system that can give a very full sound, especially if you have a preamp or mixer with good EQ. It's very small and compact which I like as my main guitar is a Lukas Brunner B-Compact travel guitar which has convinced me that I don't need a great big box. The Brunner sounds a lot better but it costs more than ten times the price. So this is a very good backup, if you were looking for a great little affordable guitar for gigging with a PA, or busking with a busking amp, this is a very good choice. It's ideal for me as a backup instrument. The pickup is great, it's Yamaha's alternative to an under-saddle ribbon, instead it's attached to the bracing which gives a more natural sound. I have a similar system from K&K on my other guitars and its much better than the ribbon ones. The guitar has a really good playing action, just amazing value all round.

well constructed, good tone,neck slightly too wide for my hands setup done well.great for teaching new starters. I wish there had been more specs (such as neck dimensions) which may have influenced my choice. Overall nice price and well made in Indonesia.

Estoy fascinada con mi guitarrita, en verdad es pequeña y liviana como yo quería! La ocupo para tocar en vivo en mi trabajo y suena como cualquier yamaha, de lujo!

Wife wants to play guitar again after a long hiatus. My full sized Takamine with fat strings is too big and heavy for her. Got her this 3/4 Yamaha and I fell in love with it. I may have to get another one for her because I've been hogging it. It has a great voice for a 3/4. The action is nice, the built in tuner is a real treat. Never had one before but it is unbelievably convenient. I don't plug it in often but I had to check out that sound too. The electronics sound decent. Can't crank it up too loud or it starts to feedback, but I'm actually sitting right on top of my small but punchy VOX amp so I can't really say how it would work for playing out. The reviews convinced me to buy this one. The best review only had one major complaint; the tuning pegs. I agree they could be better, but I don't think they are awful. I have to tweak the tuning just a little once or twice a day before I play, but it isn't like it goes out of tune when I'm playing, even when I'm beating on it hard. I think it is well worth the price and was surprised by the volume it produces. Much better than expected. If you don't find the tuning pegs worthy, I think the instrument is good enough to spend money on for an upgrade, but I don't plan to. It is solid, light weight, comfortable, nice sounding, well designed, feature rich and handy. I'm keeping it in the corner by the bed and I pick it up every chance I get. I haven't played guitar much the past few years so having a guitar at my fingertips all the time is helping me get my callouses back quickly. No matter what you play, if you lose your callouses, rebuilding them is always painful for a few weeks, but this instrument is pretty easy to play. I've gone through the process several times over the years with my Takamine. This is far less painful. Perhaps that means it will take longer, but at least I can still use my fingers to type long reviews in the meantime. No avoiding the pain regardless of what you play, but there is pain, and there is agony. This guitar hits a sweet spot somewhere in between. It's just right for young or old, big or small. (FWIW, I heard an interview with Clapton where he confessed he doesn't play much when he's not working and when he has to prepare for a tour, even he has to go through the callous building process). Well, I'm way off topic now. Again, great little guitar. Go for it.

Já faz alguns meses que comprei e posso dizer com certeza: foi uma das melhores compras que já fiz. A relação qualidade e preço é incrível para o valor do instrumento. Antes da compra pesquisei bastante, comparei vários modelos e o APXT2 realmente se destacou. O som é limpo, a pegada é confortável e o acabamento é impecável, típico da Yamaha. Além disso, o tamanho mais compacto torna o violão muito prático para levar em viagens sem perder qualidade sonora. Sem dúvida, uma escolha certeira para quem busca um violão eletroacústico confiável, bonito e com excelente custo-benefício.

Piccolo ritardo nella consegna: il venditore si è accorto di un difetto sull'ultimo pezzo a magazzino e prontamente mi ha contattato per informarmi che sarebbero stati necessari alcuni giorni aggiuntivi per ottenere l'articolo. Forse complice il Black Friday, c'è voluto qualche giorno in più. La chitarra in se è un oggetto veramente bello, total black... quasi da arredo, arrivata perfetta, con custodia. Suono ottimo, maneggevole e comoda: pienamente soddisfatto.
