- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2024Color: BlackStyle: Spruce TopVerified PurchaseI bought the Yamaha APXT2 3/4-Size Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Black as my daughter’s first guitar, and it’s been an amazing choice! Not only is the 3/4 size perfect for her smaller hands, making it easy and comfortable to play, but the sound quality is also truly impressive for a guitar of its size. Whether unplugged or connected to an amp, it delivers a rich, clear tone.
One of the standout features is how beautiful and professional this guitar looks. The sleek black finish gives it a polished, elegant feel that’s usually found in full-sized guitars. My daughter loves how it feels like a serious instrument rather than just a beginner’s guitar, which has motivated her even more to keep practicing.
It’s also lightweight and portable, so she can easily bring it with her anywhere. Overall, the APXT2 is not only a fantastic beginner’s guitar, but it’s also a well-crafted, professional-looking instrument that’s perfect for anyone starting their musical journey. Highly recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2017Color: BlackStyle: Spruce TopVerified PurchaseWife wants to play guitar again after a long hiatus. My full sized Takamine with fat strings is too big and heavy for her. Got her this 3/4 Yamaha and I fell in love with it. I may have to get another one for her because I've been hogging it. It has a great voice for a 3/4. The action is nice, the built in tuner is a real treat. Never had one before but it is unbelievably convenient. I don't plug it in often but I had to check out that sound too. The electronics sound decent. Can't crank it up too loud or it starts to feedback, but I'm actually sitting right on top of my small but punchy VOX amp so I can't really say how it would work for playing out. The reviews convinced me to buy this one. The best review only had one major complaint; the tuning pegs. I agree they could be better, but I don't think they are awful. I have to tweak the tuning just a little once or twice a day before I play, but it isn't like it goes out of tune when I'm playing, even when I'm beating on it hard. I think it is well worth the price and was surprised by the volume it produces. Much better than expected. If you don't find the tuning pegs worthy, I think the instrument is good enough to spend money on for an upgrade, but I don't plan to. It is solid, light weight, comfortable, nice sounding, well designed, feature rich and handy. I'm keeping it in the corner by the bed and I pick it up every chance I get. I haven't played guitar much the past few years so having a guitar at my fingertips all the time is helping me get my callouses back quickly. No matter what you play, if you lose your callouses, rebuilding them is always painful for a few weeks, but this instrument is pretty easy to play. I've gone through the process several times over the years with my Takamine. This is far less painful. Perhaps that means it will take longer, but at least I can still use my fingers to type long reviews in the meantime. No avoiding the pain regardless of what you play, but there is pain, and there is agony. This guitar hits a sweet spot somewhere in between. It's just right for young or old, big or small. (FWIW, I heard an interview with Clapton where he confessed he doesn't play much when he's not working and when he has to prepare for a tour, even he has to go through the callous building process). Well, I'm way off topic now. Again, great little guitar. Go for it.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2021Color: NaturalStyle: Spruce TopVerified PurchaseI have mixed feeling about this guitar. I'm a youth pastor that has played around at guitar for 20 years, hammering out some songs strumming chords. But I got serious about learning the instrument during covid. I purchased this guitar on the Yamaha name, and in order to teach my 10 & 13 old children how to play, and have it as my bang around guitar for some on the go youth activities.
Pros
+ it has lovely craftsmanship as Yamaha is wont to have.
+ very durable - I've banged it up and it's still solid
+ it's easy for my 10 year old to wrap his hand around to learn
+ it sounds fine when plugged in
+ tuner and electronics are nice to have
+ super portable and easy to pack
+ fun to take to the beach
+ I'm no expert but I thought the action was at a height easy to play
Neutral
The size is really a 1/2 guitar, almost a 6 string ukulele - so it could be good for a child or those with small/skinny fingers.
The neck is tight for me to make some chords on with my fat fingers.
Cons
- as others have noted, has a tinny Ukulele sound when unplugged, especially when compared with
- doesn't have nearly the sound of a slightly bigger guitar or one with a solid top that you can buy in this price range
It has a host of good features. However, for $200 I wish I would have gotten a small solid top guitar like the FS800 Yamaha, CC60S Fender, or Orangewood Oliver Jr. They all sound like real guitars for the same price (though without the electronics - that I didn't really need anyway).
Also, the Ashthorpe guitars and the like have full-sized guitars with almost the same quality build of laminate top. I got a full size Ashthorpe for $140 that has all the pros of this (except the portability) with none of the negatives..

Color: Dark Red BurstStyle: Spruce TopVerified PurchaseÉ bem pequeno do jeito que eu precisava, som muito bom, é mas alto do que se imagina e muito lindo. Veio com alguns detalhes mas deu pra passar.
Só o preço que poderia ser melhor, porque tá um pouco alto.

Evan StegnerReviewed in Canada on July 25, 20195.0 out of 5 stars Very suitable for travel, huge value for the price
Color: NaturalStyle: Spruce TopVerified PurchaseI bought this guitar as a travel guitar after missing the ability to play acoustically with my Ultra-Light Traveler guitar. As expected, the acoustic sound is thinner by virtue of the smaller body. There seems to be significant body noise with the piezo pickup, but it's not the worst I've experienced, and it is a decent sounding piezo. Interestingly, it runs on 2 AAs, included, which are much more available than the usual 9V. Not sure how the battery life compares yet.
This guitar does travel very well. Fits readily in small spaces like overhead airplane bins or stuffed car trunks, and it is very sturdy.

bopReviewed in Mexico on April 8, 20195.0 out of 5 stars Excelente
Color: NaturalStyle: Spruce TopVerified PurchaseMuy buen instrumento. A pesar de ser una guitarra escala 3/4, lo le pide nada a una guitarra normal. Evidentemente los graves no tienen tanta presencia por el tamaño de la caja pero cumple su función de ser una guitarra de viaje con una gran calidad de sonido.
