Review for: Yamaha CPX1000 UM.

Martin K. 681, 13.05.2013

As a guitarist of the guitar duo Windflüchter I was looking for a one-sided optically appealing instrument and on the other hand especially after a guitar, which is easy to play and sounds good.
These criteria meet the Yamaha CPX1000 UM in my opinion.
It is very helpful that the battery does not have to turn the guitar upside down or put it on a table because the battery compartment is at the top.
Fine are also the different micro- and further sound settings.

What I do not like:
1.) The Yamaha CPX1000 UM disagrees quite often.
Okay, as a soloist, I use "bending" and "release", of course, but after 2, 3 songs I have to reconcile, which is quite annoying with live gigs.
2.) Regarding the bass, my feeling, the Yamaha CPX1000 UM gives too few basses out
3.) Despite 5 anti-feedback settings, feedback can only be prevented 100% when the soundhole is covered with the included feedback protection (changed my feeling but unfortunately the look of the guitar to the negative). On this feature (5 anti-feedback settings), Yamaha would have been able to do without

On a scale from 1 (worst rating) to 10 (best rating), I give the Yamaha CPX1000 UM my personal rating, the grade 7.5 to 8.0.

Best regards,
Martin
