YAMAHA / APX1000 Crimson Red Burst [12]

The APX-1000 features a solid top, thin-bodied body and SRT pickup system for studio-quality acoustic sound, offering outstanding playability and realistic sound that will expand your playing range.

Single cutaway and thin body for easy playability
The APX's body shape and bracing design is an original design that pursues the sound character of an electric acoustic guitar. The sound design emphasizes the strength of the mid-bass, which enables lead playing with an "acoustic guitar sound" that is not overshadowed by the backing sound. The thin body, cutaway, and extra frets are designed for easy playability, making it a smooth transition from electric guitar to acoustic guitar. This is an electric acoustic guitar that can express a variety of sounds and tones as well as the realistic acoustic guitar sound.

Pickups
In-house made piezo pickups with independent element system for each string. The pickup system allows for realistic acoustic guitar sound settings with sound quality as if recorded in a studio. The pickup itself, like the 500II series, is equipped with an anther-saddle type in-house made piezo pickup with an independent element system for each string that catches the string vibration more accurately. By separating the saddle from the pickup element, the string height can be adjusted more easily than before.

Preamplifier
Control Panel
The preamplifier, the heart of an electric acoustic guitar, uses a newly developed in-house preamplifier optimized for each of the three types of pickups. In addition, the power supply has been changed from the conventional 9V dry cell batteries to two easily accessible AA batteries, and the circuit has been reviewed to stabilize the supply voltage, stabilize the supply voltage, and expand the dynamics. Furthermore, the control panel design for all grades has been unified with the same simple and functional taste as that of SRT's top-of-the-line "LJX26CP" model. A convenient tuner function is also included!

Extra Fretboard
In the APX1000, a portion of the highest note on the fingerboard protrudes into the soundhole. This is the same style used on the first generation APX, and allows for more technical playing with the extra frets on the treble strings.

Around the soundhole of the APX1000 series, instead of the soundhole ring that had been a feature of previous APXs, a wood inlay decoration has been applied to bring out the grain of the rosewood wood. This design creates a sense of serene luxury while taking advantage of the rich surface vibration that only a solid design can produce.

Bracing
Both APX and CPX bodies feature non-scalloped X bracing.
