Its solid torrefied spruce top adds warmth and a played-in character from the very first strum, while layered sapele back and sides provide a durable, dependable foundation. The Grand Pacific shape rounds out the attack and produces a clear, balanced voice with plenty of projection, making this an excellent choice for strumming, flatpicking, accompaniment, and everyday playing. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Special Edition treatment centers around a Dark Tobacco Teardrop Burst top, giving the guitar an Americana-inspired aesthetic that feels right at home on the non-cutaway, round-shoulder body.
