YAMAHA APX-10 MADE IN JAPAN 1982 Ice Tea Sunburst - Rare A popular and classic Yamaha APX series, this is a model from the 1980s, the APX-10 single cutaway, Ice Tea Sunburst. The top is spruce, the sides and back are beautiful figured sycamore maple, the neck is mahogany, and the fingerboard and bridge are luxuriously made of ebony. It has a small body that is easy to hold, but the acoustic resonance is also wonderful, and when connected, it feels good with each note sounding clear and beautiful, which would be great for solo guitar. At the time, it had an innovative stereo output (R123 strings, L456 strings, R135 strings, L246 strings) and mono can be switched. There is also a mute button. The analog feel of the retro switches adds to the vintage feel, which is irresistible for old guitar lovers. Nut width 42.5mm, scale 650mm. It is a slim and easy-to-grip type, and the frets are not worn much, it is in player's condition. The built-in PA system is equipped with Yamaha's original microphone and preamp. You can finely control the volume, bass, and treble, and adjust the sound quality at hand. It also seems to be resistant to howling, so you can use it as is in live performances, so it seems to be active not only for singing and playing, but also in band ensembles without being buried. Although there are some minor scratches from use, the condition is good considering that it has been almost 50 years, and the neck is also problem-free. You can feel the characteristic Yamaha clouding and cracks in the paint, but they combine to give it a sense of history. There are taping marks near the internal battery case and wiring, but this is probably to prevent the battery from coming off due to shaking during live performances. Although there is no original case, it comes with a high-quality SKB semi-hard case that will protect the guitar, which is a great deal. It is popular overseas and the price seems to be rising.
