Masterworks Series: the "premium lutherie" approach dedicated to precision

The Masterworks series focuses on parameters that truly make a difference in an all-solid guitar: top thickness, weight, bracing profile, back design, and wood selection. On the MG66ce Custom, this philosophy results in a guitar renowned for its power, definition, and instant response, with components chosen to maximize the lutherie (ebony fingerboard, bone nuts, meticulous finishes).

For which guitarists and styles?

Thanks to its Grand Auditorium shape and cutaway, the MG66ce Custom suits both intermediate and advanced guitarists seeking an expressive instrument for fingerstyle playing, precise strumming, and vocal accompaniment. Comfortable in pop, folk, modern acoustic, and songwriting, it also offers excellent control in dynamic playing, from light touch to more assertive attacks. The LR Baggs HiFi preamp makes it particularly suitable for stage and studio use.

Sound characteristics

The choice of an all-solid mahogany lutherie delivers a warm and focused signature, with rich mids, a clear attack, and great coherence across the spectrum. The FS6 bracing promotes top vibration for a fast response, good projection, and natural sustain, especially enjoyable in fingerstyle and nuanced rhythm playing. On the amplification side, the LR Baggs HiFi (dual under-saddle pickup and high-fidelity electronics) aims for a balanced and dynamic output, faithful to the acoustic character of the instrument, with excellent note-by-note definition.

Recommended compatible accessories

To maintain the original feel and balance, opt for a D'Addario XSAPB1253 string set (factory-installed). The guitar comes with an AFC30 case.
