How to pronounce "Apache"

Does anyone know how to pronounce the French word "Apache," denoting a member of a type of street gang (formerly?) in Paris?

That's not quiet right, because I didn't specify how the second "a" is voiced. A better approximation would be

ah-pahsh or ah-Posh (Spice)

I prefer Juliette's and Arnaud's pronunciation to the third one, who tends to swallow the first syllable.
