A slim-body 12-string acoustic-electric built for players who want shimmering chorus-like texture, comfortable playability, and dependable stage-ready performance.

  • 12-string configuration delivers rich harmonic depth and expansive acoustic texture
  • Thin APX body design provides exceptional comfort and reduced stage feedback
  • Solid spruce top offers strong articulation and balanced projection
  • ART pickup system captures detailed and natural amplified tone
  • Black finish delivers a clean and modern stage-ready appearance

The Yamaha APX700II-12 combines the immersive sound of a 12-string acoustic with the comfort and stage practicality of Yamaha’s slim APX platform. Its thin-line body design makes extended playing sessions more comfortable while helping control feedback during amplified live performance.

The solid spruce top delivers crisp articulation and balanced response, while the nato back and sides add warmth and controlled low-end presence. The 12-string configuration creates a naturally layered and chorus-like sound that works beautifully for strumming, accompaniment, and atmospheric acoustic textures.

Equipped with Yamaha’s ART pickup system and System63 preamp, the APX700II-12 provides natural plugged-in acoustic tone with intuitive onboard controls including EQ, tuner, and mid-frequency adjustment for flexible stage performance.
