  • Hey beauts! Thought I would do a quick little review on the Yamaha APXT2 - This guitar has served me well over the last year and a bit. Hours and hours of playing time.
    Do you have this guitar or thinking of getting one? I'm a big fan 😊

    I am actually lmao that you have gone through those frets so quickly 😂.
    Serriosly though, I am a guitar player myself , and I also play a Yamaha ac3m acoustic.
    My twin 8 year old girls are really interested in taking up playing. The problem is that anything that I play is just too big for them at the moment. But that apx looks just the right size for them to start off with.
    So it's coming up to Christmas now and I am running out of ideas, but your video has been very interesting and inspiring thanks 😊 👍

    I'm thinking about buying one of these, so I was interested to see that you still liked it after a year. I tried one out at the shop today and might go back in a few days. I have an Alvarez that is 3/4 size, but it's a bit bigger and not an acoustic/electric.

    Heard from many people it's worth changing both the bridge and the tuners. Even cheap tuners apparently are better than the stock ones.

    • @vincentdsnt
      @vincentdsnt 9 месяцев назад +1

      I have The APXT2 one of the best setup guitars I have ever had delivered new from the factory. Yeah I read what people say and disagree..........But you can custom set anything you own, this guitar is very well set from the shop, I will say the action and string intonation is so nice you will think it's an electric guitar neck. I compare this little ( they are small ) guitar is the same quality as the Yamaha Revstar and they are very nice.

    Ended up buying this guitar in the same colour. It obviously does not have the presence or volume of a bigger guitar acoustically but still fairly decent. It truly comes alive plugged in! A touch of EQ + reverb makes it sounds very live stream-able and busk-able indeed. Your video review was very useful.

      Hey I use Harley Benton Street box 60. By plastic thing do you mean Bridge lol? I'm not clued up on technical terms haha. If so yeah that's been changed and tuners but purely from wearing them out! I didn't have tuning issues though.

      Hey its just a plastic bridge but the important thing is that it has grooves that stop the strings moving side to side. You can do this with a file. And I use Harley Benton 12 gauge strings 😊
