For Winter NAMM 2003, Yamaha Guitars expands the popular APX line with the introduction of the APX3 acoustic/electric guitar.
The APX3 represents a lower-cost version of the Yamaha APX5A, with a laminate (as opposed to solid) Spruce top. Other features include a Nato neck, Rosewood fingerboard with 24 frets, Rosewood bridge, Nato back and sides, black multi-body bindings and diecast chrome tuners. Electronics include a System 46 preamp with a piezo pickup. Available finishes include Black, Natural, Sandburst and Translucent Blue.
"The APX3 is designed for the player who wants the playability and sound of the APX, but may not have the budget for the more 'premium' instruments in the line," states Joseph Brasler, marketing manager, Yamaha Guitars.
Currently available at an MSRP of $629.99, the APX3 includes the Yamaha Limited Lifetime Warranty.
