Yamaha APX700II 12-String Thinline Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Black

Timely shipped in single cardboard box. No packaging issues. Craftsmanship and finish is exceptional. Needed a set up as action was a little high. Came with 10's but I put on Ernie Ball 9's 12 string set. Plays great after set up. Neck has a good feel to it, not too small like a Rick,IMHO.Thin body makes it a little more comfortable to play. If you are a solid body electric player, this guitar is for you. Luthier recommends to tune 1/2 step down to reduce stress on bridge. Or tune down after playing,pain in the butt, or play with capo. He recommends this for all hollow body 12 strings.Sounds good unplugged as well as electric, built in tuner a plus. Overall for $400 very pleased, would recommend.

Arrived packed in a box within a box—perfect condition, no dings or dents in either box. Very well set up on arrival: the action is smooth and easy, the strings symmetrically spaced and the nut set just right. Arrived was roughly tuned within an octave; fine tuned it with the onboard tuner and it sounds great! Next day, only minor retuning required. I also have the Yamaha APX 700 six string, and this twelve string’s neck is even more comfortable, plus the concert-style body is very comfortable to sit and play. Still working on perfect fingertip placement for clean dual notes, but the adaptation is easier than I’d expected. The strings are fairly light and the action low enough that there’s little extra stress. Totally pleased with this purchase!

The quality of the guitar looks and sounds great for the price .
