Fusion 12 Orchestra Nylon-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The Orchestra CE is built with the classic combination of a Canadian cedar top and Indian rosewood back and sides. The neck has 12 frets to the body (14 also available), and has an ebony fingerboard. The bridge and headstock overlay are made of rosewood, and the rosette is hand-inlaid using maple and rosewood rings. With mahogany binding and a high-gloss polyurethane finish, the Orchestra is the perfect blend of traditional materials with modern aesthetic touches. A deluxe Cordoba gig bag is included as well.

The Orchestra CE is equipped with the Acoustic Fidelity System II pickup (AFS II), a blended pickup and preamp system inspired by the tradition of Hi-Fi analog sound reproduction. The AFS II authentically conveys the natural acoustic sound of the guitar without resorting to digital renderings. With 6 individual piezo elements, each string is given a balanced volume, attack, separation and clarity. The system also includes an internal electret microphone that can be blended with the piezo elements to add an airy dimension to the sound, giving the AFS II a dynamic variety of workable tones and responses to all kinds of strumming, fingering, and picking techniques. Whether playing in a huge concert hall or a small room, the AFS II captures the sonic brilliance of the Orchestra CE.
