Unlike typical under-saddle pickups, it employs an SMPU pickup mounted on the top of the body, which captures not only the vibration of the strings but also the resonance of the entire body, delivering a natural sound rich in airiness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe classic combination of a solid Sitka spruce top with rosewood sides and back ensures the rich fullness and wide dynamic range characteristic of a Dreadnought, even when played acoustically. When plugged in, it produces a soft, three-dimensional tone that minimizes the harshness often associated with piezo pickups, making it ideal for singer-songwriter performances, live streaming, and recording.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThis guitar is highly recommended for players who have found the sound of electro-acoustic guitars unnatural or who seek a sound closer to an acoustic instrument.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThere is slight clouding visible on the sides of the body.\u003cbr\u003e \nThere are other signs of wear, such as scratches and dents.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck is in good condition, and the guitar plays well.\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition Grade: B+: Some scratches are present, but they do not affect normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 1143\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Soft case\u003cbr\u003e \nTruss Rod: No issues; checked up to 60 degrees to the left and right with no problems\u003cbr\u003e \nRemaining Fret Life: Within normal range; fret height is sufficient for playing\u003cbr\u003e \nString Height (Low String Side): 2.0 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nString Action (Treble Side): 1.2 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nNut width: 43.2 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 1st fret: 20.3 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nScale: 648 mm (25.5\")\u003cbr\u003e \nRADIUS: 381 mm (15\")\u003cbr\u003e \nStrings at Setup: D'Addario EJ-16 \/ .012-.053 set\u003cbr\u003e \nRepairs and Maintenance: Cleaning, string replacement, truss rod adjustment, action adjustment, and leveling\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, and other imperfections that are not clearly visible in the photos or not listed here.
