FA-345CE Auditorium, Laurel Fingerboard, 3-Color Tea Burst
AUDITORIUM BODY STYLE Smaller than a dreadnought, concert-style bodies are built for clear articulation and optimal projection, no matter the playing style or venue. FLAME MAPLE TOP Maple gives this guitar a clear, bright tone and the flame maple top—well, that gives you a flash of attitude. LACEWOOD BACK & SIDES Sounding similar to mahogany, but with bright, snappy overtones, the rich sound and fast dynamic response of lacewood makes it a great tone wood. FISHMAN® ELECTRONICS Fishman® Electronics assure the sound is true to the instrument’s natural voice. The preamp design has a small footprint, is easy to use and delivers reliable performance. MODERN 3+3 HEADSTOCK The modern 3+3 headstock adds a touch of traditional style to your guitar. TORTOISESHELL BINDING In a particularly elegant touch, the body of this guitar is bound with stunning tortoiseshell binding.
