APX’s thin-line body combines incredible comfort, easy top-fret access and a sound perfectly suited to on-stage use with bright, clear mids, balanced highs and controlled lows. Specially designed non-scalloped X-type bracing allows the guitar’s top to sing and maximizes the resonance of the unique body shape for a full, natural tone. With dynamics, sensitivity and clarity built into the design from day one, APX is a guitar not to be underestimated.

Comments about Yamaha APX500II:
I bought mine sight-unseen trusting Yamaha quality. The APX500II is beyond my expectations (for the price), with excellent playability, sound quality from highs to lows unamplified. A built-in addition is the tuner! I matched quality with a Martin at $1500 and Yamaha equaled with ease. It is a really comfortable guitar, great finish, an excellent product at an unbelievable price! The only con is to remember to unplug to avoid pre-amp burnout.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
