Yamaha APX600 'Oriental Blue' Acoustic Electric Guitar

The Yamaha APX600 'Oriental Blue' is a stage-ready acoustic-electric guitar born from decades of innovation and player-focused design. Originally introduced in 1987 to solve common stage issues for electric players—like feedback and awkward mic setups—the APX series quickly became the go-to choice for seamless performance. The APX600 continues this legacy with a slim, comfortable body, a cutaway for upper fret access, and a neck profile that feels instantly familiar to electric guitarists.

This modern iteration features a spruce top with locally sourced tonewood back and sides, all wrapped in a striking Oriental Blue gloss finish. Its deeper body design boosts bass response and volume, while the non-scalloped bracing enhances resonance and dynamic range. Yamaha’s System65 electronics with a 3-band EQ, tuner, and mid-frequency control ensure natural amplified tone with incredible clarity and reliability—perfect for both live and studio environments.

Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.

If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
