Seagull S6 Spruce Trans Blue Burst with Gloss Top

The Seagull S6 Spruce Trans Blue Burst GT (Gloss Top) is a very strong all-round performer. It is equally at home with both strumming and finger-picking. Well, first and foremost Seagull concentrate on play-ability and sound. This is where the S6 excels. The spruce select pressure tested top has been designed in a way to get the best sound out of this acoustic guitar. Testing ensures maximum tone, projection and resonance. Each Seagull S6 Spruce has the top slightly curved around just above the sound hole. This increases stability and allows for thinner bracing. Adirondack Spruce Bracing is quarter-sawn, scalloped and carved. The bracing follows the top curvature. The bracing is strong but allows the solid spruce top to vibrate freely. The solid spruce top of the Seagull S6 Spruce Trans Blue Burst GT has been book-matched to ensure an even wood grain. It also looks great.

Tapered, reverse headstock

Every Seagull Guitar features a reverse headstock. What this means is that the maple neck is cut at a forty five degree angle. The piece of wood is then glued back into position with the grain reversed. This gives the Seagull S6 Spruce Trans Blue Burst GT stability and strength. The unusual tapered headstock design has been created for a reason. It helps keep your acoustic guitar in tune and reduces warping. An Integrated Set neck design is also stable and helps deliver a powerful sound. In terms of adjust-ability the neck has a double function truss rod system. This means it can adjust in both directions. Great care has also been given when the neck is joined to the body on this acoustic guitar. Seagull use a specific attachment system to ensure the neck is joined at the correct pitch.
