Yamaha Rocks On With The AES620 Electric
ANAHEIM, CA Yamaha Guitars answers the requests of young players for an axe that can withstand the punishing pace of today’s harder, guitar-driven music with the AES620 electric. Designed at Yamaha’s USA Custom Guitar shop, the AES620 is currently available.
“This model takes its cue from the Yamaha AES820, with a characteristic mammoth sound, fast feel, cutting-edge appearance and an incredible price point that will suit any lead or rhythm player,” states Ken Dapron, director, Yamaha Guitar Development. “It’s perfect for today’s hard rock, alt-rock, punk or metal styles.” The AES620 features a highly contoured, solid Nato body with a Flame Maple veneer top, fast Nato neck and Rosewood fingerboard. Electronics include an Alnico humbucking neck and Duncan JB bridge pickups, plus active and passive volume controls. Other design elements include a low-mass Tun-O-Matic style bridge, plus chrome knobs, tuning machines, toggle switch and logo. Color variations for the top include Translucent Dark Red, Royal Blue and Faded Burst. “This AES rocks as hard as its older siblings,” states Joseph Brasler, marketing manager, Yamaha Guitars. “It looks great, and the sound and feel are loud and tight. Best of all, the price point makes this axe ideal for the younger player, or for the rock guitarist needing a reliable second instrument.” For more information on the AES620, write Yamaha Corporation of America, Pro Audio & Combo Division, Guitar Products, P.O.
