Baton Rouge X34S/D Dreadnought Guitar

Baton Rouge X34S/D Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar

The Baton Rouge X34S/D is a 6-string dreadnought acoustic guitar with a solid spruce top and walnut back and sides. The classic dreadnought shape gives it strong projection, pronounced mids and rich basses, while the solid spruce top delivers an assertive yet balanced tone that convinces in solo playing as well as in an ensemble. The guitar suits rhythmic chord playing and dynamic picking alike, whether at home, on stage or in the studio.

What Sets the X34S/D Apart

With a 630 mm scale length, the X34S/D is slightly shorter than many standard dreadnoughts, which makes it comfortable for smaller hands and fast playing, and the 46 mm nut width leaves enough room for precise fingering and fingerstyle techniques. A bone nut and saddle, cream ABS binding and a natural high-gloss top with satin back and sides complete the package, and the guitar ships with Elixir coated strings.

Tonewoods — Solid Spruce and Walnut

The combination of a solid spruce top and a walnut body shapes the voice of this dreadnought: the spruce brings clarity and balanced mids, while the walnut adds warmth and depth.

• Top: Solid Spruce — clear highs and balanced mids with an assertive voice
• Back & Sides: Walnut — harmonious sound with pleasant warmth and depth
• Neck: Okoume — light, stable and comfortable in the hand
