I started playing again after many years and saw the good ratings this guitar had and decided to buy it.  After playing a few weeks I really like it.  It sounds good and the strings aren't that hard to get used too.  I would recommend it for a good beginners guitar.

Greatness from small beginnings...

| Review By: Leonid Vyugin | 3 weeks, 6 days ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:
Quality:

Good quality except few flaws on finishing part. First, small area on the back didn't get enough sanding (not smooth to the touch compare to the rest). Second, disturbed finish on the side of fret board, looks like someone tried to pick it up before paint dried off...So -1 to quality control. Other than that everything else is flawlessly done.

Value:
Overall:

This is a great guitar for beginners and pro. Combination of solid cedar and laminated wild cherry produce rich and loud sound even for slight finger picking. The nut and frets feel comfortable, a little wider than a standard nut but I did not notice big difference (it's perfect for picker picking and oversized fingers). What I really liked is frets, my fingers are resting on this guitar compare to some other brands. Overall great looking and sounding instrument well worth the price. Shipment was very fast and well packaged. When guitar arrived I installed brass bridge pins and Dean Markley Cryogenic strings, this guitar is screaming now like you won't believe. I love it! Great job Seagull.

Seagull S6 is without a doubt the best guitar for the money, hands down.

| Review By: Steve Lehnert | 1 month, 2 weeks ago

2 people out of 2 found this review helpful

Features:

I'm assuming it was built this year, 2012. Pretty standard for an acoustic - I'd say the neck is a touch thicker, like a Schecter is to a Fender or something. It is comfortable though, and for me it allows me to play better. It is solid top cedar, back and sides from wild cherry. Neck is silver maple. Its very natural looking and the grain looks very nice (esp. the wild cherry). The guitar is very soft to the touch but it feels sturdy. Gloss finish? It is normal dreadnought, no cutaway, no electronics. I haven't had any intonation problems, and so far I could not be more pleased.

Quality:

How does it suit my music style? Perfect! It sounds like a Taylor 110 with a more "together" like sound because the bass is deeper. I haven't tried it with any pickups or electronics. This thing can sing! It seems like the perfect instrument for that drum guitar, because tapping the wood of the guitar sounds so good. The harmonics are more clear than I hear with other guitars, I don't know why. Because of the incredible comfort I feel with the guitar, my sound is more confident and clear. Also, it is quite loud. Ir really projects across the room! 

I would never take off points because new strings slightly came out of the box not quite in tune. Perfect action, new strings, everything matched and was even, AWESOME finish. I love how unique it looks. It is just a clear finish, but the grain of the wood really shines through. The accents also really add to the looks.

Will withstand live performances, everything seems solid, yes I would use it without a backup. The finish will wear off with lots of playing because I saw the wear and tear on youtube. I think that is to be expected with an unlaminated acoustic though (not sure).

I couldn't be more happy. I bought it on a whim from musicians friend without even playing it, after hours at my local guitar shop. Taylor 110, Big Baby, Baby, and theTakamine 330s were my options, and I would never trade for any of them. In all honesty. Would replace it in a heartbeat, what an amazing instrument!

Value:

Simply cannot be beat.   There is simply no possible way any other guitar in this price comes anywhere as close to quality as this.

Overall:

Get it.  There is a 45 day back guarentee, which you will not need.  You will not be dissapointed.

Best value in an acoustic- outstanding for the price

Overall:

I hadn't looked at acoustics in years until I found I was spending more time working on my old Japanese Epiphone than I was playing it. I looked around for a year or so at various models in this range and was mostly unimpressed until I happened across an S6 original. To me, there is just a huge difference in quality and sound in comparing the S6 to similarly priced Asian-made instruments. I've had the S6 for a couple months now & I'm addicted to it. Appearance wise, the top and neck are beautiful. The cherry sides and back are a little "plasticky" for my tastes, but I suppose that's the nature of laminates. The wide & thick neck has both advantages (more room for your fingers) & disadvantages ( not the fastest). The satin finish on the cedar top is delicate; the slightest bump against furniture will leave a scratch, so this might not be the best choice for, say, a 12 year old. Plenty of volume and wonderful tone with very few compromises for the price.

Overall:

I love this guitar.  I wanted to get an acoustic in this price range.  I didn't have a chance to play a Seagull, but based on the reviews and the return policy, I pulled the trigger.  I had a chance to play a Taylor 110 and a Taylor baby at a local music shop, which I had also considered, but wasn't impressed with either for the price.  I have a Martin Custom D, and I love the volume and bass it produces.  The S6 matches the volume and has great bass tones (not as nice as the Martin, but I didn't expect that).  For the money, I'm not sure I could have done better.  I am so pleased with the sound and playability of this guitar.  I don't usually write reviews, but I read many before purchasing any musical equipment.  I am so impressed with the value that I felt compelled to write one.
