Yamaha APX 700 II Natural Acoustic-Electric Guitar

Are you looking for an acoustic-electric guitar with a slim body, stage-ready sound, and natural tone reproduction through the pickup system? Then the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural Acoustic-Electric Guitar is an interesting choice for anyone looking for an acoustic-electric guitar with a clearly defined APX character. The 700 series resembles the 1000 series in both appearance and construction. The difference lies in the A.R.T. pickup system. Because it takes into account both the sound of the strings and that of the body, A.R.T. is able to precisely reproduce the subtle sonic differences between APX and CPX guitars.

The slim body of the APX series combines exceptional playing comfort with a sound designed specifically for the stage, featuring bright, clear mids, balanced highs, and controlled lows. To ensure a full, natural sound and maximum body resonance, a special top bracing system allows the top to vibrate freely. This is precisely what creates the dynamic response, sensitivity, and clarity characteristic of the APX series that set this guitar apart. If you’re looking for an acoustic guitar with clearly specified electronics and a compact body profile, you’ll find a compelling model here.

Slim APX body with solid spruce top

The Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic guitar features an APX-style body shape. This design is one of the instrument’s key features and ensures a slim and comfortable construction. This body offers a compelling foundation, especially for players who value comfortable ergonomics and a clear stage presence. The top is made of solid spruce and plays a decisive role in the guitar’s tonal character.

The back and sides are made of nato. This is complemented by cream and black binding. The special top bracing, described as Yamaha’s non-scalloped X-type bracing, enhances the body’s resonance. Combined with the Natural color and gloss finish, the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic guitar is an instrument whose construction and visual design are clearly and fully defined.

Neck, Fretboard, and Playability

The neck of the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic guitar is made of nato and features a matte finish. This specification of materials and surface finish complements the body construction by providing a clearly defined foundation for a comfortable playing experience. The fingerboard is made of rosewood and has a fingerboard radius of 400 mm. White dot inlays further define the instrument’s fingerboard design.

The scale length is 25 9/16" or 650 mm, and there are 22 frets. Additionally, the instrument features a urea nut with a nut width of 43.0 mm. These dimensions and material specifications complete the technical profile of the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic-electric guitar in terms of the neck and fretboard, making the instrument’s playing characteristics immediately apparent.

SYSTEM64 ART for Natural Sound Reproduction

A key feature of the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic-electric guitar is its electronic system. The instrument is equipped with SYSTEM64 ART. This pickup system was specifically developed to capture the body’s resonances in their entirety. This enables a natural reproduction of tone and dynamics, allowing every nuance of the music to be faithfully conveyed.

The product description highlights that the A.R.T. system takes into account both the sound of the strings and that of the body. It is precisely this combination that makes the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic-electric guitar particularly well-suited for amplified performances. A built-in tuner is also included. For those looking for an acoustic-electric guitar with clearly defined stage electronics and natural sound reproduction, this model offers a precisely engineered solution.

Bridge, Hardware, and Natural Finish

The Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic-electric guitar is equipped with a rosewood bridge. This is complemented by a urea bridge inlay and black plastic bridge pins with white dots. These features are among the instrument’s most notable hardware characteristics and contribute to its clearly defined specifications. The instrument also features die-cast chrome tuners, which nicely round out the hardware package.

With its “Natural” color and gloss finish, the Yamaha APX 700 II Natural acoustic guitar is also visually distinct. Anyone looking for a acoustic-electric guitar with a solid spruce top, nato body, rosewood fingerboard, SYSTEM64 ART, and a slim APX body will find this model to be a precisely defined instrument with natural stage presence and clearly defined specifications.
