The APX700II-12 is the 12-string version of Yamaha’s popular APX700II electro-acoustic guitar, offering rich, shimmering tones and stage-ready performance. Inspired by the premium 1000-series, the 700-series guitars share the same sleek style and refined specs, enhanced by Yamaha’s exclusive ART pickup system.

The APX’s slim, comfortable body is designed for live performance, delivering bright, punchy mids, crisp highs, and tight, controlled lows. Its specially crafted non-scalloped X-type bracing allows the solid top to resonate fully, giving you a rich, natural tone that shines on stage or in the studio. Built with precision and purpose, the APX700II-12 blends comfort, clarity, and expression, making it a versatile 12-string that’s ready to inspire every performance.
