Amazing Guitar Worth Every Penny

I bought this guitar just over 6 months ago when the price was only £179 and thought it was a real bargain. I had played other APX and CPX models but i thought this was the best. Has a very crisp and clean tone when played acoustically and when plugged into a decent amp is even better. I bought the natural look as it appealed to me most and it arrived when the delivery note said. Came packaged exteremly well and without harm to the guitar. The on board tuner is very useful as you don\'t have to worry about having one on you at all times. I would recommend this to anybody who wants a great guitar at an affordable price.

\"Walking into Dolphin\'s Gateshead Metro Centre store, I was presented with a massive range of guitars.

Fortunately, and as a relative beginner looking for an electro acoustic model, resident expert, Andy Keogh, was on hand to help me through the options. Andy\'s caring & professional approach is worth 10 stars on its own!

It soon became evident that one of the APX models would be the right choice. To my relatively untrained ear, there wasn\'t that much difference between the various APX models & I chose the APX 500 Sunburst.

I find it hard to believe that this instrument is just over £200. Its looks, construction & sound quality would be hard to match by much more expensive models.

Played just as an acoustic, it has a fine crisp sound, ideal for all types of playing styles, which comes to life even more when amplified. And the built in tuner is a real bonus.

Beginners often buy cheap guitars. Sadly, sore fingers from a hard action soon put them off if the poor tone doesn\'t first!

No such fears with the APX 500. Its looks alone make you want to play it & keep it in view for others to admire. The neck design & action make it ideal for learners & decent players too.

The APX 500 is a no brainer. There simply isn\'t a better choice on the market.

Congratulations to Dolphin Music for 10 star customer service & to Yamaha for yet another 10 star product.\"
