I have a Yamaha APX500III and I love it! I've used it a ton. It's my go-to guitar for figuring out random stuff. I actually prefer the small acoustic body because it's easy to grab and use in front of my computer. Less chance of banging it on things in here, and very comfortable to play. It's almost like just having an electric guitar (and of course it has a direct out and built-in tuner which is a life-saver).

The tone is not what you'd usually get out of a regular-sized acoustic body, but it totally works for me! And I actually love direct piezo acoustic sounds for recording.

Not familiar with the others.

-Carl.
