Seagull S12 Sunburst Ch Cw Gt Presys Ii + Gigbag

A 12-string Seagull Designed for Intonation and Stability

The S12 Sunburst CH CW embodies the spirit of Seagull 12-strings: offering an instrument that remains pleasant to play daily, without the usual challenges related to tuning and note sustain of traditional 12-strings. Here, you find the brand's approach, notably through the Seagull tapered headstock design, engineered to promote better string stability and a more relaxed tuning process. Aesthetically, the Sunburst finish gives it a strong personality, with a top featuring a durable glossy appearance and sides with a more satin feel.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

This Seagull is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want to enrich their sonic palette with the shimmer of a 12-string electro-acoustic. The Concert Hall format makes it particularly suited for seated playing, fingerstyle, and vocal accompaniment, while remaining very effective for strumming with a pick. It excels in folk, pop, indie, acoustic rock, and any production seeking a wide, precise, and bright harmonic bed, including amplified settings.

The Sound

The solid spruce top delivers a crisp attack and excellent clarity, a key point on a 12-string where both brightness and definition are sought. Combined with the Concert Hall body, it produces a dynamic, responsive, and well-focused sound: arpeggios come through clearly, and chords gain fullness without becoming overwhelming. The typical 12-string "shimmer" character is very present, with a sense of width and depth ideal for doubling studio takes or filling space in a mix. When amplified, the Presys II electronics ensure a reliable and coherent output, practical for switching from strong rhythm parts to more delicate picking sections.
