Practice and Perform with a 3/4-Size Body With its compact 3/4-size body, the APXT2 is ideal for younger players and small-framed guitarists.

Its spruce top offers brightness and articulation, while the meranti back and sides provide low-end warmth and sustain. Plug in the Onboard Pickup and Preamp For amplified performances, the APXT2 features Yamaha's System 68 pickup and preamp. The contact microphone accurately captures your guitar's natural acoustic tone. Plug into an amp or PA system to fill small venues with your sound. The preamp puts volume control and tone shaping at your fingertips. Shape your amplified tone by adjusting the pickup's mid-range response. The tuner ensures you always sound in tune, even on loud stages. Play Smoothly Along the Nato Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard Designed for comfort and playability, the APXT2 has a nato neck that positions your hand naturally along the slim nut width. The rosewood fingerboard facilitates smooth fingering transitions up and down the neck. With 21 frets to work with, you'll be able to access higher notes for solos and melodic embellishments. The compact scale length makes it easy to form chords. Tuning stability comes from the guitar's six covered tuners up top.
