Full Description
View Full DescriptionA renowned body shape
You can't get much sweeter than a dreadnought body. This legendary shape is supremely versatile, perfect for a variety of styles. With its deep lows and driving rhythms, the dreadnought accommodates strumming and fingerpicking techniques alike, whilst always delivering clarity and richness.
Sublime sound
Glistening definition, superb dynamics, and a beautifully balanced response across the whole frequency range. It's all possible with a Sitka spruce top. Sitka spruce delivers an undeniably dreamy tone, rich in dynamics and clarity. Its unrivalled versatility will ensure that whatever your style, scrumptiously crisp articulation coats every single note. And you won't miss out on gorgeous tonal warmth; layered sapele back and sides promise a beautifully balanced sound that has both depth and that top end sparkle.
Built for flawless fretting
The ebony fretboard features a naturally high oil content which gives it a lusciously smooth finish. Slide effortlessly from fret to fret and lose yourself in a glorious playing experience, your sound will flow seamlessly from the strings. Ebony is an extremely responsive tonewood that offers a beautifully bright sound as well as a snappy, crisp attack, making it a gorgeous accompaniment to the sapele and spruce body. Project your music with purpose and brilliant volume, every note will cut through the mix astonishingly well.
Soar to new heights
So, you have your indulgent, crisp acoustic sound under your belt. It's beautiful the way it is, but sometimes you need that bit of amplification, especially when you're on stage. Located discreetly on the side of the Academy 10e is the ES-B preamp, letting you sculpt your sound with sparkling precision whilst the pickup responds to every touch of acoustic goodness. An LED display and built-in chromatic tuner then allows each note to sing immaculately, so only pristine tuning and sonic excellence will flow from the strings.
