The Yamaha APX700II-12 Electro Acoustic 12-String Guitar is the 12-string version of the model that features styling and construction inspired by the 1000 series guitars but with an exclusive ART pickup system. It is ideal for gigging guitarists thanks to its built-in preamp and pickup system has been designed to faithfully replicate the natural acoustic voice offering rich dynamics that show off the guitars true persona. Its solid spruce top alongside its nato back and sides produces a versatile tonality that is well-suited to a wide range of genres and playing styles. The nato individually delivers a resonant rich warmth that complements the solid spruce tops tonal character beautifully. For players that perform more technical skills the APX700II-12 features a cutaway profile enabling easy access to upper frets and offering more freedom across the fingerboard. Finished with subtle ornate details including sound hole rosette classic Yamaha headstock and chrome hardware this beautiful electro-acoustic is sure to look graceful in any venue.
