Description
If you wanted to play acoustic guitar on stage in the 1980s, there were very few viable options for amplifying the instrument conveniently. In 1987, Yamaha created the first ever acoustic guitar that could be plugged in and played at any volume without any fear of feedback, and without the need for microphones or amplifiers. The Yamaha APX Series was focused on more than just sound - every aspect was refined to be a seamless switch for an electric player on-stage, from the elegant finishes, to the cutaway body, and the slim, electric-guitar style neck.
Features
Thin Body and Cutaway For Excellent Playability
634mm Scale Length for Enhanced Comfort
Narrower String Spacing Makes Stretching for Chords Easier
New Bracing Pattern For More Powerful Bass Response
Stage-focused Pickup Sound to Cut Through a Mix
Inlaid Soundhole Rosette
The heart of an electro-acoustic guitar lies in a harmonious blend of the guitar's acoustic sound, and the voice of it's pickup. Utilizing the same pickup featured in Yamaha's highly-acclaimed A Series, the APX600 features an SRT Piezo Pickup, producing a massive dynamic range, natural tone, outstanding feedback rejection, and the mix-friendly sound that guitarists are looking for. The inclusion of Yamaha's iconic active preamp is still a crucial component of the APX Series - expertly crafted by Yamaha's audio-visual team to deliver sound quality characteristic of the world's number one!
The distinctive and instantly familiar APX sound hole delivers a thicker low-mid range and a more open and powerful bass response, and the thin-line body makes this instrument incredibly comfortable to play, with unrestricted access to the upper frets. Rounding out the performance of the APX600 is a pickup system which uses dedicated elements for each string for signal with an ultra-wide, and incredibly clear bandwidth - boasting greater dynamic response and sonic accuracy than traditional piezo pickups.
