Our Take
The APX600FM isn't trying to be the loudest acoustic guitar in the room. Instead, it's designed to be one of the easiest acoustic guitars to play and one of the most dependable acoustic-electrics to perform with.
For players coming from electric guitar, few acoustic guitars feel as immediately comfortable. The slim body sits naturally against you, the neck feels familiar and the electronics simply work. That's why the APX series has remained a favourite with worship musicians, singer-songwriters and working performers for decades.
If your priority is comfort, playability and reliable plugged-in performance, the APX600FM is one of the strongest options available at this price point.
