Who Is It For and Which Styles?

Ideal for fingerstyle, modern picking, and folk, it also excels in nuanced strumming, vocal accompaniment, and recording thanks to its clear note definition.
Sound
The solid European spruce top delivers attack, clarity, and dynamics, while the solid mahogany back and sides provide warm mids and precise lows. The ebony fingerboard and bridge enhance articulation and the "snap" of the trebles, with generous sustain. The double side sound ports improve the player's perception of their playing, useful both on stage and in the studio. When amplified, the guitar remains faithful thanks to the Fishman Matrix Infinity, which offers natural reproduction and discreet volume and tone controls.
