- Hey Hey!
Here is a look at my Yamaha APXT2 Travel Acoustic. I actually use this guitar for gigging on a regular basis. It has a very good sound for such a small guitar!
Take a look and see and hear it !

As someone who's been playing lead guitar for years, I've got to say... Great playing man! That was an absolute joy to listen to!
Thanks so much x
Without doubt the best demonstration of a guitar I've heard in a long while.. Nice fretwork on notes and chords alike.. Thumbs-up
Thanks so much :)
Great work for Yamaha, many people will buy this guitar after watching this video, included me! 🙂
I loved your demonstration!! It was so lovely and pleasant! ❤
Loved listening to you play! Great way to start the vid. Thanks for the comprehensive review - very helpful 👍
Sounds GREAT...... Have heard this guitar many times at different gigs....... Love these review vids........ Thanks again for everything........ M&MX / Mark T X
this demo was super helpful, sir! I envy your skills so much now... You're doing amazing job.
I've been thinking on which guitar to buy, and I think you've helped me decide, thank you!
As others have commented, fantastic playing and wonderful detailed review! One of the best I’ve seen and I’ve seen a lot of them. Congrats!
Some mighty fine playing. Thank you for the demonstration. I have the Yamaha Jr 1 & 2. Now I’ll have to pick up the APX! Cheers.
Great demo, now I'm gonna get this model!
Thanks
Really nice review and great playing! Thank you.
Wow, that was some FANTASTIC playing!
Sweet playing, Brent! I have one of these guitars and was just "researching" it and found your channel. Fantastic playing!
Thank you so much for the demonstration with the guitar! So awesome and it sounds absolutely wonderful! You've totally convinced me.
Thanks for watching. I took it busking today as it goes. Great guitar!
loved that intro jam !
Thanks for a proper, thorough review.
Thank you by the way for your tutorial. It has helped me to make my guitar look better and last longer. I absolutely love the sound and my fellow band members said it was awesome to listen to. It’s small but has a big sound.
Yes I agree and thank you x
Absolutely blown away by this review! 🎸 Your deep dive into the Yamaha APXT2 not only showcased its versatility but also your passion and expertise in travel guitars. The clarity of your presentation and your attention to detail made this an incredibly informative watch. Can't wait to see where your musical adventures take you next. Subscribed and eagerly awaiting more gems like this!
Cheers mate, nice review, great playing, just ordered the red burst❤🙏😸
Thank you so much for this awesome demo!!!!
Thank you x
What a fab wee tool, wonderfully demonstrated, and my goodness you're a brilliant guitarist Brent! 👏😲
Thanks:)
Very enjoyable performance, mate! Love your playing.
Great review and super playing. Thanks a lot...
Such a great review!😊👍
What an awesome review Brent, Thanks ... Recently decided to start playing again after a few decades away which I guess means I am a "re-beginner" ... Since I have smaller size hands and fingers this may just fit the bill ... thanks again!
Glad I could help! Yeah I love this little thing, My daughter plays one too.
Brilliant playing and great guitar review thinking of buying a Yamaha apx 2 travel guitar I already have an apx 500 and love it thanks love your lead work
👍👍 very nice
I've been considering getting one of these,
think you just made up my mind for me ☺️
Awesome review and you’re a great guitar player! 👏👏👏
Thanks for making and sharing this. I'm looking for a small semi acoustic, so this was really useful (including the poor bag) :-)
Wow, that was an awesome performance.
That was sweet man I loved it 🙏
Nice playing, Brent 💯
Im currently loocking for a travel acoustic that intro wants to make me buy the yamaha. Great playing mate!!
This is the best video I've seen about this guitar.
Thank you :)
Agreed - many demos make it sound thin and brittle. Great job. Persuasive. Just added a new comment - this upload has helped me decide to order this model.
You got that right he is a excellent guitar player and a great personality.
For it's size it sounds reasonable. I was positively surprised when I first played it but you are right that it sounds really good amplified, even through the small portable Yamaha THR5A
Thank you for this... just found a used one ... bought it because of your video. Perfect review. Also subscribed..
still use mine and my daughter has one too.. Thanks for the sub and glad you are liking it.. Plugged in they are so good.
Here is my travel guitar!! What do you think? I call this my little black one! Do you name your guitars too?
Yes I do to a great idea after all it becomes apart of you.
Got mine with batman sticker logo, I call it "Bruce". 😁
Hell yea 👏👏👏. Love that little guitar. I’m a Taylor guy but thinkin about picking one up. This might have sold me
I bought mine yesterday... looking forward to making it my main guitar. Vidios to come.
I want to thank you for such a great review as I am considering a few different acoustics this being one of them and may I say that the blues/ jazz tune you are jamming on at the begining is absolutely beautiful. I felt the groove and just rolled with it. So much so that I downloaded the video to MP3 just to keep the song.
Thanks man ... it's a great little guitar for sure
I feel you
Sounds like a bit of bossa nova in this beat? I’m thinking about getting this guitar now!
thanks for this review. I finally decided to buy one of these.
Awesome
I have one as well, for just over a year now....great live guitar and I record with it plugged in as well as mic'd, just to get 2 different sounds....
I love it my go to acoustic
The SKB Cases models 1SKB-300 Hard case or 1SKB-SC300 Soft Case will work for APXT2. I bought my APXT2 plus the SKB Soft Case in November of 2016 and the guitar has lived happily in that case since. I went for the soft case as the guitar is meant to be a travel guitar and the soft case has shoulder straps on it , giving you options as to carrying it.
Brent...what an incredible demonstration. Obviously, the guitar comes second after you. I have the APXT2 in tobacco sunburst. I'm a wannabe, but am relentless in my practicing, etc.. You're an inspiration! I have four guitars and my APXT2 is my absolute favorite. It's in my lap anytime I'm sitting down. Thanks!
Thanks 😊 yeah I'm still using it it's my number one and my daughter has one too
This is one of the reasons why I bought this exact instrument. ✌️
20 seconds in gave this a like, awesome playing.
👏 Wow, I was in a production show in Vegas and you are great!You play as good as my friend who was in the orchestra and he was a child protege with the guitar. By the way I ordered this guitar, I don't even know how to play it. Agreeing with the comment below best demo, etc!
Wow, thank you! I don't know what to say :)
Excellent review! Appreciated. 👍
Thank you my pleasure
Thanks. I got the review I needed before buying this guitar.
Great review! Thank you.
late by a year, but this is definitely the best review video opening to me
Wow! Forget the guitar, I just sat back and listened to the playing three times.
Bro... I can listen to this all damn day! Seriously!
great review, thank you!! :)
WOW SUCH AMAZING PLAYING! Since this is your most popular video, you should make a tutorial about what you play, it‘s SO groovy!!✨
You've convinced me Brent I've just ordered one from Yamaha London (UK). Cheers dude ;-) Phil
How do you like it? :)
Gosh, I wish I could play sorta like that .✌
Lovely tones. Sweet little guitar👍
It's great I love it
Best review of this guitar. I like the Johnny Cash black color.
Better than the review, it's you jamming in the video intro. F...ng awesome 👏👏👏
Well played mate, well played!
Awesome dude, just ordered 1...
Hi Brent - Thank you for your great video.I love this as my go-to guitar. Are there any alternatives or planned versions by Yamaha or others, that have the same size, that are higher-quality (higher-priced) ? While, I love this one, I'd pay more for a better one of the same design. Any recommendations welcome. Thank you again for your great video.
With the tone turned to the bass, I would have believed you were playing a Dreadnought, really BIG sound! with it turned all the way to treble, it sounded pretty bluesey. Midway it sounded very much like an electric with no effects. What a versatile little box the APXT2 is! BTW, I just loved your intro number, which confirmed it's Blues chops to me.
Good review 👍
It sounds so good omg
My little black one I love this thing :)
great playing and sound
Brent thank you very much for the video! Great video!
Can you give us the link of where you bought the new tuners?? Really appreciate it, thanks!
Brilliant mate!
Sounds great! A nice go-to acoustic!
yeah Im loving this atm
Yeah brother!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Bravo!!!!
Awesome Playing :):):)
Hi M8. Thanks so much for this feedback! Very useful. May I ask those metal tuners u exchanged what brand?
Thanks!
Dude you are a great performer!!!
Thanks buddy:)
Great review.
Would like to enquire, specifically, on the tuners that you swapped out for. What are those, exactly?
great playing ! 👏 ... i got the same one. i can play it in the office chair. so all my other guitars get dusty right now. what gauge do you use on it? ah ok 12. i put 10 thats fine too. and yes. its definitely a plug in guitar 😉
Awesome playing indeed.
Lovely playing ...
I have one and no regrets. Cheers
Thanks Brent! I've got an EW version on the way! : - )
Hi Brent.... Where could I get this backing track mate? Its very simple and subtle... Plus you make it sound so beautiful. Loved your playing!!!!!!
Thanks so much for the review! Super helpful as I've been looking for a busking/travel guitar that isn't going to break the banke whilst starting out. Can I ask if you have a link to the tuners that you got? Or did you go to a luthier to get them sorted?
Amazing!
You are one amazing guitarist. I'm completely blown away and I'm a prof. musician myself, so I can judge. Please look into the song Hold Me In Your Arms by Rick Astley from 1988. Play it with headphones and listen to the guitar playing left and right. To me one of the most creative 6-string performances I have ever heard... until I came to your video! Your style is more bluesy here but the overall technique and feel really reminded me of my favorite underrated and completely forgotten guitar arrangement in the aforementioned tune.
Thanks man :)
great job!
Been thinking of this guitar to take on my motorcycle. I have child's guitar I take now, but this yamaha sounds pretty good. I also bought the Boss Acoustic Singer Live and dream of crossing the country on the bike and play for tips and giggles, this could be the one for that. Sounds pretty good. Also very affordable. - Cheers
Yeah man sounds like a great adventure! This is more than up to it but I recommend putting it in a better bag. Good luck mate hope you do it !
@@BrentHutchinson OK Brent, a year later I am back grooving to your killer demo, still thinking about the guitar. Travel plans on hold naturally, but still have the bug.
I want to rig up a totally water proof case for he bike. This guitar is definitely still high on the list. Great playing. Would cool to see a live gig.. - Cheers
@@joeshmoe7967 Hey man sounds brilliant. I hot one for my dau6for xmas she loves it too.
I have that guitar - and I love it! I'm a beginner and I'm learning (have learned most of) "Never Going Back Again" It's tough for me but I play at least an hour every day, and mostly on that one song. It sounds good on its own, but fantastic when plugged in.
Yeah man i gig this guitar its great.. glad you enjoy the guitar too.. keep rockin man
Nice!! From one guitarist to another IM PROUD OF YOU!! 😁 Keep doing whatever makes you want to keep playing! Thats the big secret for guitars you want learning! Keep it fun! Increase the difficulty just a little more and more and you will be a "6string king!" 👑 😁✌️☯🙏🤘
@@happyfoxtail2062 Thanks for the encouragement. I agree that you have to make it fun. I started out with a guitar teacher that said to practice small bits of technique in-between playing for fun. He suggested not just practicing one song, but find a few that you really like and keep adding more and more
@pattygoogly3820 it's been a few years how have you progressed in your learning? I'm considering starting to learn and getting this guitar
I ordered this guitar. Can’t wait. Your playing looks deadly too! Very impressive 👏
just looking at getting one myself, you happy with yours??
@@lawrencelimburger9160 Hi Lawrence. I’ve had it a bit now. I’m really happy with it. It doesn’t have the full sound of the bigger guitar, but it still sounds lovely to me and is very nice for learning too. I don’t have an amp thing either to add to a fuller sound, but I might get one in the future. Even without an amp, it still sounds very good, and it is ideal for me anyway. I hope if you decide to buy one, you are happy with it. 🎸☺️ 🎶
@@talk2birds128 Thank you very much for your comment! Glad you found it to be to your liking! I have had the tab open since yesterday and have almost convinced myself to just go for it, having a little bit more of a search but this seems very fit for my purposes. Thanks again and happy strumming!
@@lawrencelimburger9160 haha! I was the same. I really wanted a smaller guitar and when I saw that one, I really wanted it. I just said I deserve it lol and went for it. 😁. Thanks, happy strumming to you too. ☺️🎸
@@talk2birds128 Ordered mine yesterday! I'm too old but I'm gonna rock and roll anyway
Awesome demo. I have the natural wood APXT2. Anyway you can share the backtrack :-)
Just put one on layaway at my pawnshop in town. It just looked and felt and sounded to good, not too.then I started to check out all the reviews. I have a feeling, this will be the Best Buy ever, for $127. Damn you make it sound good. Flexibility a must, for us poor folks!
Just picked up one today for $100 in like new condition on Facebook Market Place.
Great demonstration and info on this particular guitar. Would this guitar be easier to play for beginners and someone with smaller hands (no jokes 😊) rather than a full size. If not what is a good smaller guitar for beginners. Cheers (PS) subscribed to your channel 👍
Nice playing.
Perfect ❤😂
🎉
Thank you x
Thanks for the review. I've been considering one of these, and found your channel, AND subscribed. Question - Would nylon strings (ball-end) work on this, and how do you think it would sound? Would the pick-up still work? Thanks for the great review and look forward to seeing much more.
Thanks for joining my awesome community of guitar lovers! Yeah I dont see why it wouldn't work with nylon strings. Maybe I'll get a set and do a video on it.
@@BrentHutchinson That would be excellent. I'd also considered more Slinky strings, but primarily curious on the nylon. ♥️
Wonderful playing, mine arrives tomorrow, I’ll make it sound like a bag of spanner’s though!
Let me know what you think of it. :)
@@BrentHutchinson loving it so far, a little bit thin sounding unplugged but fully expected that due to the size, lovely action and very sturdy feeling tuners considering the price point.
Overall very happy with it.
nice work
Purchased one for the misses before even watching this vid, but this just reaffirms the decision.
BTW... She loves it!!
Yay still use mine
I have one and plan to upgrade with something else, but then post watching this video I'm concluded to practice more instead :D
Love it man! your phrasing is killer. What type of amp are you using? And very nice video.
Thank you.. In the video I'm going into my DAW. Live I use a Roland Cube Street Ex or my Yamaha Stage Pas 400i
