The guitar's solid East Indian rosewood back and sides deliver a rich, balanced tone with a strong bass response, while the solid spruce top adds dynamic response and projection. This combination of premium tonewoods ensures a versatile and expressive sound that's suitable for a wide range of playing styles and genres, from traditional bluegrass to modern acoustic music.
