Sapele behaves similar to mahogany, but with slightly more top-end sparkle, giving the slope shoulder's naturally warm low-mids some extra clarity and definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat combination makes it comfortable for strumming singer-songwriter material or for flatpicking where you want note separation without a harsh, glassy edge. Hand-scalloped X-bracing keeps the spruce top responsive at lower volumes, so it doesn't take a heavy hand to get the guitar moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mahogany neck with a traditional even \"C\" profile and 1.68-inch bone nut keeps the fretting hand relaxed across the 24.75-inch scale, while tortoise binding, a matching pickguard, and a pearl headstock logo dress the sunburst finish in classic style. It's a slope-shoulder dreadnought that works equally well as a first serious guitar or a warm-sounding backup for a player who already owns a brighter square-shoulder model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSerial #M2612540 — this listing is for the exact instrument shown in the photos above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhy Choose The Acoustic Shoppe?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen you choose to purchase from us, you're not just making a transaction; you're investing in an exceptional experience.
