Overview

Not a standard six-string, the APX700II is a thinline twelve-string with stage-ready electronics. The top is spruce over a mahogany body, with a nato neck and rosewood fretboard.

A comfortable thinline body with a plug-in pickup is the reason to look at it, and the accessory kit adds a manual and a truss rod wrench. The listing fills the back material with a placeholder. Packaging dimensions are stated instead of the guitar size.

Who it's for

Gigging twelve-string players who need onboard electronics and a slim body. Anyone wanting a six-string, or a full wood list, should choose another model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Piezoelectric pickup with jack
  • Accessory kit with truss rod wrench
Cons
  • Back material shows a placeholder
  • Dimension entry looks like packaging

Performance notes

A piezoelectric pickup senses string and top vibration directly, so the guitar can be plugged into an amp or PA through the jack. Twelve strings in pairs add chime to the sound. The thinline body trades some unplugged volume for comfort.
