Yamaha AEX502 Semi Hollow - Orange

This second hand electric guitar is in great condition.

The Yamaha AEX502 Semi-Hollow is versatile and great value for money for what it delivers. It straddles a sweet middle ground: more warmth and resonance than a solid-body electric, but more practicality and control than a full hollow-body. For blues, classic rock, jazzy cleans, or gritty leads , especially if you like vintage-tinged tone with modern playability , it’s a very strong all-around guitar that punches above its weight.

• Versatile tone & strong personality

• The AEX502 features dual P-90–style single-coil pickups, which give it a punchy, mid-heavy, snarly tone — perfect for blues, rock, and even jazz or cleaner styles. 

• Its semi-hollow body with a maple veneer top over an alder back gives it a nice bit of resonance and warmth — unplugged it rings with clarity across the fretboard, and plugged in it can deliver sustain and fullness whether you stay clean or crank up gain. 

• Comfortable playability & manageable size

• The neck is a bolt-on maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and 22 frets, with a 24.75″ scale length — a setup many players find familiar and easy to handle, especially those used to “standard” electric guitars rather than jumbo hollow-bodies.

• It’s not too bulky: the body is a modest size for a semi-hollow, making it more comfortable for players who want some of that hollow-body vibe without the full bulk or weight of a big archtop.

• Great value for money

• For a relatively modest price (especially on the used market), AEX502 offers features , semi-hollow construction, P-90s, decent hardware , that punch well above what you might expect at that price point. 

• Its build quality , bolt-on neck, stable hardware, smooth neck profile , feels solid and reliable, and the simpler control layout (volume, tone, 3-way switch) keeps things straightforward and usable.

• Visual & aesthetic appeal

• The  Orange stain flamed maple-top finish gives the guitar a distinctive, retro-inspired look , a bit of a mix between vintage and modern style, which some players love for both stage presence and personal preference. 

• The gold hardware  adds a classy touch that works with the semi-hollow guitar vibe. 

Great for you if you:

• Want a versatile semi-hollow guitar that can cover blues, rock, cleaner jazz-adjacent tones, and some gritty rhythm/lead work.

• Prefer a comfortable, manageable guitar , not too big, not too heavy, familiar scale/neck feel, but still with semi-hollow warmth and character.

• Like P-90 tone , gritty, mid-forward, expressive, biting yet warm.

• Are on a somewhat budget-conscious or value-driven hunt: AEX502 gives you a lot of guitar for the price, especially used.

• Care about looks & vibe , the orange finish and semi-hollow styling give it a bit of retro-modern charm.
