The YAMAHA APX900, featuring a vibrant ultramarine color and the 3-Way A.R.T. system, is now in stock as a used model!\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nWe’ve received a used YAMAHA APX900 UM.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nYamaha’s “APX” series of electro-acoustic guitars is designed for superior playability on stage. Among them, the APX900 is a high-end model featuring a solid spruce top, flamed maple sides and back, and a 3-Way A.R.T. pickup system.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nKey specifications include a solid spruce top, flamed maple sides and back, a nato neck, and a rosewood fingerboard and bridge.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe pickup system features Yamaha’s proprietary A.R.T. (Acoustic Resonance Transducer) System 57. It features a 3-way configuration with a main pickup and bass- and treble-side sub-pickups, allowing for a wide range of sound shaping through the Master Volume, 3-band EQ, and mixing of the bass- and treble-side sub-pickups.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIn terms of condition, there are signs of normal wear and tear associated with use, such as dents, scratches, scuffs, and tarnish on the metal parts.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThere is slight warping visible on the top.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSince the instrument exhibited high string action upon arrival, we performed neck straightening and saddle adjustment in-house. String action at the 12th fret is approximately 2.5 mm on the 6th string and approximately 2.1 mm on the 1st string.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nWe have confirmed that the truss rod has approximately 50 degrees of remaining travel in the tightening direction. While adjustments are currently possible, the truss rod is somewhat stiff when tightening, and there is relatively little remaining adjustment range.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe frets maintain a playable height, with approximately 70% of their original depth remaining. We have also deburred the fret edges in-house.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThere are no issues with the electronics.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe original gig case is included.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nPlease consider this opportunity.\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition B+: Signs of aging due to use are visible, including dents, scratches, scuffs, and tarnish on metal parts.\u003cbr\u003e \nYear of Manufacture: 2008\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: QOL071035\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck Condition: Since the neck was noticeably bowed upward upon arrival, we have performed neck straightening and saddle adjustments.
