The AEWC12 is known for its unique sound, largely due to the choice of materials used. The spruce top on this guitar provides bright and punchy tones, ideal for both fingerpicking and strumming. Sapele back and sides are also utilised, offering warm and mellow sounds that help to balance out the spruce's brightness. These woods work together harmoniously, creating a well-rounded and versatile tone that is suitable for a wide range of music genres.
A nyatoh neck and walnut fingerboard are known to produce tonal qualities that are warm and rich, making them ideal for use in acoustic instruments. The neck is sturdy and provides well-defined, focused harmonics with strong sustain and ample resonance. Meanwhile, its walnut fingerboard offers midrange-heavy voicings that complement the nyatoh perfectly, resulting in a balanced sound overall. These qualities give the AEWC12 a distinct voice that is both expressive and versatile, making it an excellent choice for many different playing styles.
And with such an incredible tone comes an equally beautiful playing experience. Its comfort grip nyatoh neck contour provides exceptional playability, allowing you to perform for longer periods without experiencing discomfort or fatigue in your hands. The nyatoh is topped with a silky satin polyurethane. This finish ensures that your hand glides effortlessly for faster and more accurate fretting. Execute complex chords and riffs with ease.
What's more, thanks to the walnut top-loading bridge, string changes have never been so easy. This design doesn't require bridge pins, eliminating the frustration and time-consuming task of aligning the string and pin, allowing you to spend more time playing your guitar and less time struggling with the setup. An effortless and inspiring playing experience for creating the sound you're after.
