Yamaha APX5A Thinline Acoustic Electric Guitar Reviews
9 out of 10
"A LONG TIME LOVE AFFAIR"
Feature:
The guitar has a an equalizer that works very well in consideration of the price point. A built in tuner would have been a good idea.
Quality:
In every way fit and finish are second to none. This is a great looking instrument and quality in the asembly is apparent. A great road guitar as it is quite a bit thinner than a regular accoustic guitar.
Value:
Well worth the selling price . It plays beyond its relative worth.
Desirability:
Very sexy looking instrument no question about it.
Sound:
Great guitar for recording. Cut away gives ease of access for top notes which come off both clean and expressive. As an accoustic guitar the enlarged sound hole compensates for the thin body of the guitar, however do not expect a dreadnaught sound as after all this is not the intent of the instrument.
Support:
Never had to. No problems.
Overall:
I will most likely keep this guitar a long time, I have already had it over 7 years. I have looked at others Taylors, Larivees , Martins,Godins, and others, however with the prices and with the playability and style and shape of this guitar the next guitar in this style would have to be pretty special

"Best bang for my $ & Biggest difference in sound"
The Yamaha APX5A is the best sounding acoustic electric guitar that I own for my money. I had a chance to play other models when I was comparison shopping. And even after strumming it lightly, I realized that the sound was unique with great presence. I was even more impressed after it was plugged into my amplifier. It's a simple joy to play. I can't wait to hear the advantages of it's design when my AG-Stomp is delivered to my front door. The fun is just beginning.
