Really i enjoy to see video like that so cool,thanks!

[@eddiepaul798]

Great review. Thanks

[@SES8856-z5u]

I would be interested in seeing how to polish frets.

[@budgetguitarist]

This coming Friday will be part 2, and it covers cleaning the frets. :)

[@DEATHVIPER1777]

Does it come with a truss rod wrench? Mine did not. Thanks!!

[@daylebron5723]

Hi. thank you for the video. the soundhole seems oval. can you measure and tell us the size of the hole. Also will the size of the sound hole make a difference in the quality of the sound?

[@paulhendershott667]

My new R9 came with a twisted neck along with areas of bleed-over on the binding in several spots. It went back and the next one was near perfect. I also picked up the Epiphone Slash LP when I sold my PRS in 2021 and the factory (or Sweetwater?) setup was amazing! Super low action, no buzz, and best intonated guitar I've ever had - very impressed with Epiphone. I usually like fiddling with the setup on a new guitar purchase, but there was noting I could improve on. I am considering selling both LP's, banking most of the money and getting a $300 - $500 LP style guitar. I love tinkering and making any guitar sound and play well so I'd love to hear some suggestions...

[@budgetguitarist]

For around $500 I like a used PRS Tremonti SE. Sweet guitar.

[@paulhendershott667]

@budgetguitaristcom Tx! I'll see if I can find one to try. I had a PRS SE Hollowbody II Piezo that would not stay in tune and had intonation problems. It was however the prettiest guitar I ever owned! 😊

[@guillermolares8186]

@@budgetguitaristwould you recommend the Taylor Big Baby walnut instead this Yamaha? Thanks

[@jaybrinkman2767]

Hoping to watch and learn polishing the frets

[@waichow5887]

Yes. Validation please.

[@JLYaranon]

What is the best string gauge for this guitar APX 600 please? 🙂

[@mosisharifi4986]

Hi there, can i use this guitar model for blues and country music??!

[@budgetguitarist]

Absolutely.

[@Spademusic24]

Does it come with guitar cable

[@geoffrey4513]

Here because I just spotted one on marketplace for 87€ (weird pricing)

[@jhonlynayky_elnayky]

What about the Yamaha CPX 600

[@barrys.1824]

Thanks for sharing your relief from arm fatigue. I suffer from a similar malady. Is the inch still making a difference today. I would be moving from 4 to 3 inches and it just seems like an inch wouldn;t matter that much but several makers are offering this version at 3 in. so it must be making a difference.

[@budgetguitarist]

It does make a difference... but not as much as playing electric. But every little bit counts. Best way to see is to go to a Gutiar Center or Sam Ash and play an acoustic with a smaller body, and see what you think.

[@Augustives]

Would you choose this guitar or a takamine gd11 ?

[@budgetguitarist]

Tough question. Me, personally, I'd choose the Yamaha because I know how to work on guitars and can get the action lower. But the Takamine might be slightly better set up out of the box. They're similar quality.

[@dalepres1]

Very scary video. Please buy a cloth seamstress measuring tape instead of holding the guitars together! But, otherwise, thanks for the intro to the APX600
