Yamaha's CPX Compass mini-jumbo design, introduced in 1998, has quickly become a favourite among electro-acoustic players. Slightly smaller and more comfortable to handle than a full-size jumbo but still with a large soundbox and robust sound, these distinctive cutaway instruments are known for their satisfyingly warm low end and clear, ringing highs. They feature pro-quality pickup systems, including two-way piezo/mic powering on some models.
