Tim with a custom Yamaha APX500 Electric nylon string guitar

This this the most popular conversation people ask me to do: converting a steel string guitar into a nylon guitar for professional use.

The benefits are:

1. small slim body - more comfortable to hold

2. Slim neck

3. 45mm nut spacing - easier to play

4. Replacing internal single piezoelectric pickup with a dual mic/pickup system. A fantastic solution for people using loop pedals as the built in condenser microphone will pick up the percussive sound from the body while the piezoelectric pickup will deliver more attack for solos.
