Yamaha APXT2 Review - 1 year Later

[@markfarringdon1334]

Hi Hayley, great video - very helpful! I just bought a used one of these after watching your review and also your Dad's. Very nice guitar am really pleased with it so far. Thanks and all the best! Mark

[@the_groovy_life]

Awesome!! Thank you 💞 glad you are as happy with it as we are 😁

[@CD0263]

What a great natural video. Thanks, was thinking about buying one of these.

[@the_groovy_life]

@CD0263 thank you! Buy it 😁✨️

[@JetteIsHollow]

Thanks! My other acoustic got left when we moved houses, or stolen but it was cheapy anyway, sad though since it was my first one. I'm getting one of these i think!

[@the_groovy_life]

@JetteIsHollow oh that's sad! You'll love this guitar I'm sure 🥰

[@warrenoakes4521]

Good review and performance a joy to watch, thanks

[@the_groovy_life]

thank you very much!!

[@splittingedges]

Really helpful review. Thanks!!!

[@the_groovy_life]

thanks and you welcome!

[@sparkden]

Great! Nice guitar and good play !

[@the_groovy_life]

Thank you 😊

[@seanmckinley5052]

Hey, thanks for the review! I just picked up one of these beauties yesterday (early Christmas present for myself) Sounds like a great addition to my Yamaha guitar collection! Tks! Sean NB Canada

[@the_groovy_life]

Awesome!! Enjoy, I know you'll love it 😀 ❤️

[@rbaleksandar]

Heard from many people it's worth changing both the bridge and the tuners. Even cheap tuners apparently are better than the stock ones.

[@vincentdsnt]

I have The APXT2 one of the best setup guitars I have ever had delivered new from the factory. Yeah I read what people say and disagree..........But you can custom set anything you own, this guitar is very well set from the shop, I will say the action and string intonation is so nice you will think it's an electric guitar neck. I compare this little ( they are small ) guitar is the same quality as the Yamaha Revstar and they are very nice.

[@viniciuscomacento]

Highly disagree, its tuners are fine

[@atulisrockin]

Ended up buying this guitar in the same colour. It obviously does not have the presence or volume of a bigger guitar acoustically but still fairly decent. It truly comes alive plugged in! A touch of EQ + reverb makes it sounds very live stream-able and busk-able indeed. Your video review was very useful.

[@the_groovy_life]

Aw awesome that you bought it and love it!! She's a beaut plugged in ❤❤

[@atulisrockin]

Your video was one of the few where I could hear it being played outside in a busking content. Made my decision easier!

[@the_groovy_life]

@Atul Rana oh! I'm so glad the video was useful for you 🙏 are you a fellow busker ? 😁

[@atulisrockin]

@@the_groovy_life I busk a little bit. More of a live streamer and being in a band. Guitar is so easy to transport as well on the London underground!

[@Adri23SD]

I’m thinking of getting one. This was very useful, you are awesome!

[@the_groovy_life]

Do it! I'm sure you'll love it as much as me. And thank you so much 🥰

[@bmac5085]

I am actually lmao that you have gone through those frets so quickly 😂. Serriosly though, I am a guitar player myself , and I also play a Yamaha ac3m acoustic. My twin 8 year old girls are really interested in taking up playing. The problem is that anything that I play is just too big for them at the moment. But that apx looks just the right size for them to start off with. So it's coming up to Christmas now and I am running out of ideas, but your video has been very interesting and inspiring thanks 😊 👍

[@the_groovy_life]

Aw I think this guitar would be perfect for them to learn on! How sweet 🥰 and thank you for the lovely comment!! X

[@bmac5085]

@the_groovy_life you're absolutely welcome and I will give you a sub 👍

[@thomasmerzbacher7997]

What type of saddle did you put on and is it compensated? Do you use 12 gauge strings? Thanks for your review.

[@BardePhilippe.P76]

That yamaha accoustic electric is just bonkers wowzers!

[@leobluesy]

Great job !!! I think one of these will be heading towards my nephew 7 yrs old who is very keen on learning. Ive been playing and writing since Noah or at least it feels like it....... Cheeeers !..Leo

[@OlaOla-so3il]

Thank you for the review! I really enjoyed watching this video! :)

[@the_groovy_life]

You are welcome! Thank you for the lovely comment 😇

[@MissNazzy100]

Amazing video! Just about to order this guitar! Have you got any bag/case recommendations?

[@the_groovy_life]

Thank you 😊 and thats awesome!! I just use a normal padded guitar case and don't have problems. There's enough room to fit all my leads and bits and bobs in there then x

[@jamesmcc6190]

What did you say after "if you're looking for a campfire guitar? Don't get this....blurb..."?

[@the_groovy_life]

No idea where abouts in the video is it ? 😁 I probably said something along the lines of don't get this one because it doesn't sound very good when it's not plugged in....

[@jamesmcc6190]

5min 2 secs in. Think you're right. Maybe cut the video slightly too short and you say 'a bit naff'.

[@the_groovy_life]

@@jamesmcc6190 ahhh that sounds like something I'd say 😂

[@giorassiccuriosity1796]

That’s a thing of beauty!

[@MeneerHerculePoirot]

Great guitar as well.

[@A.K47GTG]

Yamaha makes great affordable guitars. Anyway what strap and bag do you use

[@peterhaynes8258]

Great informative video, Nice Guitar, Nice Voice, Good Luck Young Lady.

[@the_groovy_life]

Thank you very much 😊

[@69telecasterplayer]

I just got the APXT2EW for my two granddaughters. Sounds great. I did a recent comparison on KZbin.

[@vincentdsnt]

Agreed I have the EW great couch guitar. They sent me a very beautiful wood grain, it's a keeper.

[@marialacuriosa8316]

I'm thinking about buying one of these, so I was interested to see that you still liked it after a year. I tried one out at the shop today and might go back in a few days. I have an Alvarez that is 3/4 size, but it's a bit bigger and not an acoustic/electric.

[@the_groovy_life]

I still absolutely love it!! As soon as you plug it in it just sounds great 👍

[@alessandrom2953]

Hi Harley, you live in Sant’andrews,Scozia?

[@bonniechops1]

I've just bought one of these, it's getting delivered tomorrow, I went for the natural colour. £199 in all colours 💪🏻🎸😊 guitar guitar Glasgow

[@the_groovy_life]

Awesome! You will love it 😀 ❤️

[@edgaracostadavila204]

Is a small guitar very cute, how is the quality? does it produce a great high sound in relation to its size? do recommend it?

[@aleco8053]

Io sto pensando di acquistarla. La prossima settimana andrò nel negozio per provarla. 🍀🎸

[@byromtaylor6482]

I have one its an amazing thing plugged in ...do you use the joyo bsk 60 or HB amp? An did u ugrade to a bone nut n get rid of the plastic thing and what about tuners does it not slide out of tune easy on yours ? What tuners would you upgrade to...so many qs sorry ...new sub here

[@the_groovy_life]

Hey I use Harley Benton Street box 60. By plastic thing do you mean Bridge lol? I'm not clued up on technical terms haha. If so yeah that's been changed and tuners but purely from wearing them out! I didn't have tuning issues though. And welcome to the channel (also sorry for the late reply 😅)

[@byromtaylor6482]

@@the_groovy_life what tuners did you get and was it a bone nut ....the action on mine is way too high for me ...and yeah cool you a van lifer so understand life is busy for ya but yeah hi good to be here....sing me some back to black ...love my Amy ...x cheers ...or miley flowers ...or that sad song from barbie ....or fast car by TC....take yer pick x hope you are well...

[@philosophy4242]

I was thinking about getting the Luna Safari Peace for my daughter. She is small. But I'm confused now because I found your video.

[@the_groovy_life]

Hehe, I've never played a Luna but I still love this guitar and play it everyday ❤️

[@echy]

Do you get buzz on the E string first fret?

[@Xcorgi]

Nice playing and singing at the end 👍😁. What’s the name of the song and the artist?

[@the_groovy_life]

Thank you so much. The song is called Sunshine 🌞 one of my originals x

[@Xcorgi]

@@the_groovy_life That’s amazing! I really like it because it has a strong Morrissey/The Smiths sound and feel to it. Very impressive!

[@guitargirl7452]

Yamaha should sponsor you to promote that little APX! Great guitar and amp combo. Cheap but still a quality rig 👍👏👏👏 xxx

[@PhilippeRebuffel]

Merci pour cette présentation

[@OGFIFTYUK]

Great Review, but I still can't play one chord

[@paulmitchell5349]

Nice singin' and useful review.

[@stevebutler5356]

What amp are you using?

[@the_groovy_life]

Harley benton Street box 😎

[@BradfordHills]

thanks for the review. What City is that? Greetings From Santa Monica

[@the_groovy_life]

Thank you! I'm from the UK West Sussex 😊

[@r_aguilar68]

How's the action on the guitar?

[@the_groovy_life]

Pretty good to be honest. I did get some buzzing before I replaced the frets but all good again now 😊

[@unofficialbhb7284]

Thanks for filming and sharing M8ty ....... M&MX ❤️ / Mark T X ♥️

[@matthewreid618]

What kind/model saddle did you replace it with? What gauge strings are you using. Thanks for the review!

[@the_groovy_life]

Hey its just a plastic bridge but the important thing is that it has grooves that stop the strings moving side to side. You can do this with a file. And I use Harley Benton 12 gauge strings 😊

[@9jmorrison]

Great voice switch out guitar try Harley Benton 850 Ovation rip off, more tone.

[@the_groovy_life]

Thank you! Will check it out 😊

[@jhonlynayky_elnayky]

What is the amplifier that you use

[@the_groovy_life]

@@jhonlynayky_elnayky Harley Benton, street box 360 😁

[@jhonlynayky_elnayky]

@@the_groovy_life Is that useable for electric guitar as well

[@ComicKish]

I AM NEW but breakiing a guitar string in 3 weeks seems a lil ..... u fil it in ........

[@the_groovy_life]

I play this guitar at least 30 hours a week. Since changing the bridge I think it holds up pretty well 😊

[@PegasusFleets]

Nice work friend.. stay happy.. Happiness is happierness !! ( be even happier tomorrow !! 😂🎉😢😮😅😊🎉😂 )..

[@cleisonsantos6547]

nice video 👍👍

I can’t afford even the cheapest one 😭

🎉👍🫶🎉

[@nedcramdon1306]

The speech was painful to understand. Were you a little buzzed?

[@the_groovy_life]

Haha no I wasn't buzzed. Maybe thats the problem 😂

A totally useless review.
