Yamaha APX700IIL Left-Handed Thin Body Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar

Designed specifically for left-handed players who want exceptional comfort, outstanding plugged-in performance, and Yamaha's legendary reliability, the Yamaha APX700IIL is a versatile acoustic-electric guitar that's equally at home on stage, in church, in the studio, or around the house. Its slim, thin-body design makes it incredibly comfortable to hold for long practice sessions while providing effortless access to the upper frets thanks to its smooth cutaway.

A solid Sitka spruce top delivers crisp articulation, balanced projection, and excellent dynamic response, while the nato/okoume back and sides add warmth and durability. When it's time to plug in, Yamaha's acclaimed System64 preamp with A.R.T. (Acoustic Resonance Transducer) pickup faithfully reproduces the guitar's natural acoustic character with impressive clarity and feedback resistance, making it an outstanding choice for live performance.

Whether you're leading worship, performing on stage, recording, or simply enjoying time at home, the APX700IIL offers professional-level playability and dependable Yamaha craftsmanship in a comfortable left-handed instrument.
