Review: Très bon achat à très bon prix, bon son - Guitare idéale pour voyager, le tuner intégré est très pratique aussi. Le son est vraiment très bon. C'est une guitare de grande qualité à très petit prix....je recommande sans hésiter Review: Dream Guitar at an Affordable Price! - What a fantastic little guitar! When I was first learning about guitars, I purchased this model (Tobacco Burst) but didn't like the PBs (phosphor bronze) that came on it, so I switched to Silk and Steel 11s. The guitar developed a buzz. I took it to three different techs, had it restrung several times, even put on higher quality nut and saddle, but nothing could get rid of the buzz. After a few months, I sold it. Since then I have learned that putting 11s on a short scale guitar such as this will make the strings floppy and can cause a buzz (I wonder why none of the techs knew this). So - I ventured forth again and purchased the "natural" version. I still don't care for PB strings, so I put Martin Monel Retro 12s (MM12) on them. WOW!!! Huge improvement over the original strings. What's so great about this guitar? It has excellent intonation, the action is low, fret ends are smooth, the tone is sublime (especially when plugged into my Fender Mustang Mini Plus set on the 3rd preset: Swirling Echoes). Playability is wonderful. It has a balanced feel, no buzz, weight is comfortable, the neck is smooth, and I love the back and sides. One thing I'm not nuts about: The top. I have another guitar whose finish is designed as "distressed", giving it a worn look. I love this on that guitar. It seems to me that Yamaha attempted to do something similar with this model by infusing smudges into the finish. However, this doesn't result in a "distressed" look so much as a "dirty" look. I'm not a huge fan of Yamaha's version of this. Not a big deal, and I knew this before I bought the guitar, so obviously, no lost points for this. I've been around the block a while with guitars and have played a LOT of them. While this little Yammy isn't anywhere near the top of the line, it punches way above its class and delivers an exceptional value for beginners, intermediates as well as more advanced players. It is ideal for shorter folks (anyone under, I'd say, about 5'6' or so). For beginners of all ages or anyone who wants an excellent inexpensive traveling guitar that isn't as persnickety with temp and humidity changes, this is the one! ## Features - Figured Exotic Wood Top - Meranti Back & Sides - Rosewood Fingerboard & Bridge - System 68 Preamp - Free Gig Bag Included ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01BPK7PGU | | Back Material Type | Meranti Wood | | Back material type | Meranti Wood | | Body Material Type | Meranti | | Body material | Meranti | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Color | Figured Natural | | Colour | Figured Natural | | Connector Type | 1/4 inch (6.35mm) jack | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 76 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00889025104593 | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H-S-H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Included Components | Guitar | | Instrument | guitar | | Instrument Size | 3/4 Size | | Item Dimensions | 91.9 x 41.9 x 11.4 centimeters | | Item Weight | 5.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Yamaha | | Manufacturer Part Number | APXT2EW NA | | Material Type | Meranti Wood | | Model Name | APXT2EW NA | | Model Number | APXT2EW NA | | Neck Material Type | Wood | | Neck material type | Wood | | Number of Strings | 6 | | String Material Type | Phosphor Bronze | | Top Material Type | Spruce Wood | | Top material type | Spruce Wood | | UPC | 889025104593 | ## Product Details - **Back material type:** Meranti Wood - **Body material:** Meranti - **Brand:** Yamaha - **Colour:** Figured Natural - **Top material type:** Spruce Wood ## Images ![Yamaha APXT2 3/4-Size Acoustic-Electric Guitar with Gig Bag, Dark Red Burst - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Q7bittznL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does this product come with steal strings?** A: You shouldn't steal things. Especially guitar strings. It.s bad luck. They will snap and put your eye out. **Q: Does this guitar come with nylon strings or steel strings?** A: This one comes with steel strings, But we do have models with nylon , Fuller's Guitar 713-880-2188 **Q: Does this have a curved or flat fretboard?** A: Mine has a beautiful radiused (curved) rosewood fretboard that plays like a dream. I own 9 acoustic guitars, including a couple of Martins and Taylors, and my APX T2 is the best-playing guitar I own right now. The neck is smooth, fast, and very responsive to the even most gentle caress. I can actually do things with it that I can't really do on my others, or at least not as good. It feels like it was custom-made just for my hands. Keep in mind that I take really good care of my guitars. because they keep the rent paid and the lights on. I clean the fretboard every time I change strings, with a moisturizing cleaner (Murphy's Oil Soap), and do a quick-polish on the frets. If you exercise less meticulous care, your mileage may vary. However, I believe that with even modest care, anyone would be happy with the neck on this great little axe. I can't say it enough...this guitar is a winner! **Q: Is this a solid top or laminate?** A: It is laminate ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Très bon achat à très bon prix, bon son *by G***G on 6 July 2020* Guitare idéale pour voyager, le tuner intégré est très pratique aussi.

This guitar hits almost all of those, minus the nylon strings so I compromised in that aspect. Overall I’m happy with it. It’s even smaller than I expected but it’s comfortable to play. I’m 5’4 with dainty girl hands so I usually struggle to reach the right frets with certain chords which is why I wanted something smaller. The neck isn’t much different than a full size but seems a tiny bit smaller. I also don’t notice as much fret buzz as I did when I played a full size; I used to borrow one (not sure of the make) and I had a fender, both had a lot of buzz so I think it was an issue on my end with my reach. This guitar has a look I like well enough and the sound is decent for such a small guitar. It does go out of tune often but the built in tuner is a really nice feature. I may use some of the advice of other customers to make this thing sound even better but not right away and not all at once. I’m enjoying getting back into practice and recommend this to casual players, beginners and apartment dwellers - I don’t have to worry much about my neighbors having to hear me play since it doesn’t project like a full size. ## Frequently Bought Together - Yamaha APXT2EW 3/4-Size Acoustic-Electric Guitar with Gig Bag, Figured Natural - WINGO Guitar Capo for Acoustic and Electric Guitars - Rosewood Color with 5 Picks - Amazon Basics Adjustable Folding Guitar Stand, A-shape, Fully Assembled - For School Music Program, Concerts & Multiple Users, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/668672409-yamaha-apxt2-3-4-size-acoustic-electric-guitar-with-gig](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/668672409-yamaha-apxt2-3-4-size-acoustic-electric-guitar-with-gig) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-24*
