Yamaha CPX-500
Several colors available: Old Sunburst, Bordeaux, Natural.
I have a natural one, which is very nice aesthetically, with an awesome lacquer and a perfect finish.
Piezo pickup
UTILIZATION
Very round neck, although very comfortable!
As some people have mentioned before, you have to change the original strings and the headstock, body and roundness of the neck recall a Les Paul.
SOUNDS
You can easily go from blues to folk ballads.
This guitar sounds awesome!
Superb as a first acoustic-electric. If that's what you are looking for, I recommend it.
I use it with a small VOX DA5 amp for electric guitar, which serves me fine for the moment.
I love to improvise acoustic blues à la Keith Richards with it.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had it for 3 weeks.
I tested a LAG 200dce summer but there's no comparison, the LAG was very dry, not warm enough.
What I like most about this guitar is the jumbo shape and its resemblance to a Gibson.
Excellent value for money!
Based on my experience I would certainly buy it again.
