Overview

Consistent warmth, response, and punch in a charmingly small package.

The SG Shorty Acoustic-Electric is RainSong's smallest and most refined body shape with a unidirectional soundboard, hybrid body construction, and a short scale 12-fret neck -- the perfect combination for an intimate instrument with a warm tone and surprising punch.

Shorty's neck joins the body at the 12th fret rather than the 14th fret. This moves the bridge back on the soundboard towards the center of the lower bout resulting in improved sonic energy transmission from the strings to the soundboard and enhanced bass response.

Unidirectional carbon mimics the tight grain of a fine Spruce soundboard. First introduced on the Concert Series, this soundboard is RainSong's lightest. The Hybrid body technology blends the crystalline highs of carbon with the mellow tones of glass. The synergy between the unidirectional soundboard and the hybrid body is obvious from Shorty's first strum.

The SG features a high-gloss, UV protective, polyurethane finish that magnifies the 3 dimensional carbon weaves on the instrument. Includes case.
