Yamaha APX600FM Thinline Acoustic Electric Guitar - Flamed Maple Amber
As an electric guitarist in the 1980s, if you wanted to play acoustic on stage there were few options for you that really worked. In 1987, Yamaha made the first acoustic guitar that could be taken from a guitar rack, plugged in and played at volume, problem free; no more howling feedback, misplaced mics or the dreaded extended sound checkâŠ.
The APX series didnât just focus on sound - every element was tweaked to be an easy switch for an electric player on-stage, from the stylish finishes to the cutaway body and the slim, electric-guitar style neck.
In any electro-acoustic, the combination of the guitarâs acoustic sound and its pickup is the heart of the sound. The latest APX600 features a unique undersaddle piezo pickup, Yamahaâs proprietary Pickup-R transducer â the same pickup as featured in the highly acclaimed A Series range and boasting incredible dynamic range, natural tone and the feedback rejection and mix-friendly sound that guitarists need and want. Yamahaâs legendary active preamp is still a big feature of APX, and being built by Yamahaâs audio-visual division, the sound quality is everything youâd expect from the worldâs number one.
Styles have changed a little since 1987, but the essence of APX is the same as ever. Todayâs APX guitars boast a more natural look, 5mm deeper body for better bass response and greater volume and, under the hood, a new non-scalloped bracing pattern for a responsive, dynamic tone.
One of the world's best-selling acoustic-electric guitarsâthe APX600 seriesâintroduces an upgraded version with a flame maple top. APX's thin-line body combines incredible comfort, easy top-fret access and natural acoustic toneâgiving APX600FM excellent playability that is perfectly suited for on-stage performers.
- Flamed maple top wood and nato back and side produces a full and natural acoustic tone
- Thin-line cutaway body design for exceptional playability
- 25" scale length and narrower string spacing for enhanced comfort
- New bracing pattern for increased bass response
- Abalone soundhole rosette
- Stage-focused pickup system for shaping your sound in the mix
