A Multiac Designed for the Stage: The "Amplified Nylon" Spirit
The Multiac Nylon Encore fits within the approach of modern nylon guitars focused on performance: an instrument designed to retain the feel and musicality of nylon strings while offering reliable and controllable sound capture in live settings. With its chambered design and dual-source system, it aims for a consistent and usable response on stage, where a traditional classical guitar can become challenging to amplify.
For Whom and In Which Styles?
Ideal for intermediate to advanced musicians seeking a precise nylon sound when amplified, without constraints related to stage volume. Its slimmer nut facilitates the transition for guitarists accustomed to steel strings. It excels in Latin, flamenco-pop, jazz, pop, world music, and any situation where the "nylon" tone is desired in a mix, with clear attack and controlled dynamics.
Sound Characteristics
The solid cedar top provides a warm and immediate response, with a nice roundness in the midrange and a "lively" playing feel under the fingers. The chambered silver maple body promotes clarity, definition, and stability when amplified, while limiting unwanted resonance issues at high volume. The EPM dual-source system allows character adjustment: the bridge pickup enhances precision and attack, while the sensor under the top adds air and a more acoustic sound. Sliding controls (volume, treble, mid-low, bass, and blend) facilitate quick adaptation to sound reinforcement and playing style.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This guitar is delivered with a gig bag, convenient for transport and regular travel.
