Divine looks, heavenly sound
The GD93CE showcases a sublime spruce and rosewood construction – two tonewoods that offer a supremely clear, room-filling sound. The solid spruce top is the perfect soundboard for broad dynamics and projection, whilst its diamond-quality articulation will ensure each note retains every ounce of definition, whatever you play. And when you have rosewood back and sides providing all their resonance and brightness in good measure, you know you can count on superb richness, whether you’re strumming or fingerpicking. Better still, the back is injected with a touch of the maple goodness that acoustic players love, courtesy of the quilt maple centre that runs in streamlined, exquisite fashion. True beauty, from every angle.
