The APX700II is a seriously versatile instrument – a great choice for gigging acoustic players needing a reliable amplified sound. Its comfortable neck and solid top make it a joy to play, and the System 64 pickup system is surprisingly natural. Ideal for singer-songwriters or anyone wanting a stage-ready acoustic with a refined feel.

Frequently Asked Questions

The System 64 is known for its exceptionally natural amplified tone, avoiding the harshness often found in cheaper systems, though it lacks some of the advanced features of higher-end options.
The neck has a comfortable, medium profile, which should suit a wide range of hand sizes, though it's not exceptionally wide like some vintage models.
Nato provides a consistent and balanced tone, but it won't offer the same harmonic richness or complexity as more premium tonewoods like mahogany or rosewood.
