Players drawn to Indian rosewood’s deep bass, bright, sparkling trebles and lush overtones will appreciate our expanded 400 Series, now boasting new visual styles and two attractively priced Studio models. Each guitar features Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top for a rich, articulate sound with warm lows, pristine highs and a slightly scooped midrange. Choose either a natural or sunburst top and one of three gloss-finished body shapes: the powerful Grand Pacific 417e, the all-purpose Grand Auditorium 414ce and 12-string 454ce, or the compact Grand Concert 412ce. Standard models feature Finial inlays, a green abalone rosette and white binding. Studio models, offering premium performance at a remarkable value, feature a torrefied spruce top, rounded body edges with black and white top edge trim, 4mm dot inlays, a narrower 1-11/16-inch nut width, a black 3-ring rosette, and a natural or shaded edgeburst top. All 400 Series guitars come with a faux tortoiseshell pickguard, nickel tuning machines and ES2 electronics.
