The finest blend of materials
Crafted from a combination of carefully selected materials, the FA-135CE Concert offers remarkable tonal qualities. Laminated spruce is used for the top, which is a popular choice for acoustic guitars due to its excellent projection and resonance. Spruce is known for producing bright, clear sounds with a strong emphasis on the treble frequencies, making it suitable for various playing styles, including fingerpicking and strumming.
Constructed from laminated basswood, the body is lightweight and provides warm, balanced tones with a smooth midrange response. This combination of spruce and basswood results in a guitar that produces a well-rounded sound, with a pleasant blend of brightness and warmth that accommodates a wide range of musical genres. Furthermore, the walnut neck and fingerboard contribute to the harmonics by providing a stable foundation for the strings and enhancing sustain. Discover an expressive sound that appeals to players of all styles and preferences.
