YAMAHA APX600 Electric Acoustic Guitar

YAMAHA APX600 

The Yamaha APX 600 Acoustic is a 6-string acoustic-electric guitar featuring a unique under-saddle piezo pickup, the Yamaha proprietary SRT transducer featured in the highly-acclaimed A Series range, a natural tone with the feedback rejection and mix-friendly sound guitarists crave and a black finish.

As an electric guitarist in the '80s, if you wanted to play acoustic on stage there werent many options available. So in 1987, Yamaha made the first acoustic guitar that could be taken from a guitar rack, plugged in and played at volume, problem free; the days of screaming feedback, misplaced mics and indefinitely extended sound checks were over!

The style has moved with the times but the essence of the APX remains the same. Today, it boasts a more natural look, a deeper body for better bass response and greater volume, and a new non-scalloped bracing pattern for a responsive, dynamic tone.
