Yamaha are one of the biggest brands on the planet, encompassing everything from motorcycles to pianos, they always deliver the highest quality.The Yamaha APX600 is a thin body, cutaway electro acoustic. With a Sitka Spruce top and Nato back and sides, it offers a crisp and cutting natural tone. It is beautifully balanced and articulate, perfect for fingerstyle and bold chord strumming. The Nato neck features a Rosewood fingerboard and benefits from a 15.75 radius and a 25 scale length. Its comfortable and really nicely balanced and thanks to the low playing action, its great for beginners and more experienced players alike. With a built in 65A pickup and preamp system this guitar is always ready to hit the stage. With unreal clarity and note definition, this system is a real plus point for the Yamaha APX range.
