The world most sold electric acoustic guitar, 500 series now reveals its upgraded version. Cosmetically stage-aggressive attitude with refined hue is totally new to classic rock generation as well as live fanatic new comers. This is an excitement generator with Yamahas own upgraded electric system and excellent playability. APX series guitars are designed with a focus on playability. Their thin bodies and cutaways that provide greater access to the upper frets, offer smoother switching between electric and acoustic instruments. The special APX bracing design delivers excellent response with a thicker mid and high range tone. Inheriting the basic specifications from APX500, the 500II offers a newly developed Yamaha original preamp/piezo pickup. This new pickup is an under-saddle type, yet the piezo element is individually placed for each string in order to catch more accurate sound information. Another plus, along with the APX's great playability, is its capability for smooth lead playing.

The nylon travel guitar for the serious guitarist! If you've been playing for a while, you know how important "feel" is to the playing experience. And since most travel guitars have a shorter scale, the "feel" is completely off... the frets are closer together, it's harder to form chords, and you've got to re-train yourself on how to play... only to re-train again once you get back home. But the Traveler Guitar Escape MK-II Nylon manages to avoid all of that nonsense. This sophisticated acoustic-electric travel guitar features a full-scale 25-1/2" neck, complete with an ergonomic overhead compartment-friendly design for a "best of both worlds" combination.One look at the Traveler Guitar Escape MK-II Nylon and you know this isn't your ordinary travel guitar. Play it acoustically and you'll get surprising sound from the alder body, maple neck, and ebonized rosewood fingerboard. But plug in a pair of headphones (there's a headphone preamp system onboard!) and listen to the Escape MK-II Nylon come to life. You'll also want to plug into your favorite amp or the PA system at the little coffeehouse open mic you happened upon. The high-quality custom L.R. Baggs Element-Hybrid pickup system sounds amazing. If you're after a nylon travel guitar that has the serious player in mind, the Traveler Guitar Escape MK-II Nylon is it. You even get a deluxe gig bag with it.Traveler Guitar Escape MK-II Nylon Features at a Glance:Nylon guitarNeck: MapleBody: AlderFingerboard: Ebonized rosewood (non-radiused)Frets: 22-mediumScale length: 25-1/2"Neck width at nut: 1-15/16"Body width: 10-3/4"Length: 30"Weight: 4.75 Lbs.Pick-up: L.R.
