Crafter Able Series 600 Cutaway Grand Auditorium Electric-Acoustic Guitar With Solid Spruce Top 12 Strings

A Crafter Setup Designed for Acoustic Balance and Stage Use

This Crafter electro-acoustic guitar relies on a proven formula: a solid top for projection and playing finesse, combined with mahogany for a warm and clear tonal signature. The addition of a full preamp naturally places it in a "plug and play" logic: an instrument equally comfortable for home practice, rehearsal, simple recording, or amplified stage performance.

For Which Guitarist and Styles?

With its wide nut, it is particularly aimed at serious beginners to intermediate guitarists who want to progress on a comfortable guitar, as well as more advanced musicians who prioritize right-hand precision in fingerstyle. It is also very well suited for pop, folk, and vocal accompaniment thanks to the balanced registers and integrated electronics, convenient for quickly switching from a natural sound to a controlled amplified tone.

The Sound

The solid Engelmann spruce top delivers a very lively response: the attack is precise, nuances stand out easily, and the instrument reacts well to velocity variations (from delicate playing to stronger strumming). The mahogany back and sides enhance the mids and spectral coherence: the result is a warm, direct sound with excellent clarity of chords and melodic lines. The compensated nut contributes to more accurate intonation across the entire neck, particularly appreciated on open chords and higher positions. When plugged in, the under-saddle pickup provides a clear and usable output, and the notch filter helps contain problematic frequencies in amplified situations.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To maintain the same feel and tension, you can opt for string sets with a gauge of 12-53, such as D'Addario EXP16 (gauges 0.012" to 0.053" / 0.30 to 1.35 mm). A microfiber cloth and a maintenance product suitable for a glossy finish are also reliable choices to preserve the guitar's appearance daily.
