Thank you for watching! Send money.

Oh heavens no - that's just part of the original koa wood grain that was caught in that particular slice of wood to construct the laminate. In fact, if you look closely, you can see that the dark pattern on the top half of the guitar has a mirror image on the bottom half since it was from the same piece of wood, but it's not so obvious because of the single cutaway on the bottom. Quite unique, one of a kind - precisely why I didn't opt for the black version.

@@thepirate5955 oh i see. That's so unique. When i went to the yamaha website i noticed that the natural color doesn't have these dark patterns so i was wondering whether you have a bad copy or it was the original color. Btw, im planning to buy an apxt2ew also.

Do it! You will be pleasantly surprised. I have had mine for right at three years and I have had to make ONE (1) single adjustment on the truss rod in all that time - it was about 1/8 of a turn on the rod to get it perfect. The guitar holds tune very, very well. I would recommend a small amp, as it is a small guitar and does not have the projection of a full size guitar. One affordable amp I would recommend is a MOOER Hornet 15 watt model - they're about $100, give or take. (www.mooeraudio.com/product/Hornet--52.html) It is a modeling amp, including one for acoustic guitars, is portable and has a 6.5 inch speaker, which is surprisingly loud (I replaced the speaker with an 8" Weber guitar amp speaker). Play on !

@@Xtianster the version he has is Yamaha APXT2 EW "exotic wood"-- the general colors are just tan, black, and sunburst with spruce tops

I got mine yesterday but i chose the Light Amber Burst color. On the Yamaha website it was the least attractive color for me but when i saw it in person i fell in love with it in an instant! The size and weight of the guitar is just right for me and it sounds great when plugged to an amplifier! Im so happy!

Thanks so much. I appreciate the compliment. ; - )

Huge fan back in the day - her open tuning is what inspired my open tuning.

Thanks so much - I just play what I feel.

@@thepirate5955 cam you share how to play this ? Id love to learn this

Not at the beginning, but then does get amplified just past 2:30 ish.

Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate you taking the time, glad you like the sounds. Everything I play is my own, I don't do covers and I daresay I can play along to virtually any tune since I play by ear. Started when I was 14 - I'll be 70 in November. As far as I am concerned, it's all about tone, whatever it takes. Thanks again. Tony V.

Thank you so much.

Yes, effects details are in my description notes (where it says show more). The amp I use has a 10" speaker.

@@thepirate5955 ok I see, thank you

@@tanyushmusic So if you're in Russia, I do believe you can get the same guitar from a wonderful source & distributor on the European continent. Here is the link for that specific guitar (red sunburst, not natural like mine): www.thomannmusic.com/yamaha_apx_t2_dark_red_burst.htm?ref=prod_variations_311348_3 I purchased my guitar from Reverb dot Com here in the USA, but I have bought from Thomann before and I highly recommend you take a look at their site. The specific effects from my guitar were as follows: I was first plugged into a MXR Stereo chorus pedal, then through my Wampler Ethereal Reverb & Delay pedal, then into the Fender Pro Jr. all tube amp. So I used two pedals, but three effects. Hope that helps! Play on.

@@thepirate5955 thank you! Will keep in mind. I live in Canada and I bought a few ukes and have an acoustic guitar already, decided it's enough for a beginner for now :). But I do like this model in the look & size. Peehaps later, my concern whether the sound will be ok.

@@tanyushmusic The little Yamaha is called a 3/4 size or parlor guitar, sometimes even a travel guitar. It did come with a soft gig bag which adds a little protection, not much. This is perfect for just having next to you whenever the mood strikes you, but I strongly suggest getting a small amplifier to really appreciate the sound - otherwise it WILL sound small because, well . . . it's small! Good luck.
