Standout Features: Handbuilt Quality & Fishman Electronics

What distinguishes the C7-CE CD in its category is the combination of traditional fan bracing for rich acoustic response and the Fishman Presys Blend system, which merges an under-saddle piezo pickup and internal microphone. Elevating both performance and aesthetics are premium details such as a dual-action truss rod, gold tuners, and Savarez Cristal Corum High Tension 500CJ strings.

Construction & Materials – Foundation for Tone

Using solid Western Red Cedar for the top and Indian rosewood for the back and sides creates a harmonically complex, well-balanced sound. Fan bracing allows the top to vibrate freely for maximum sustain. Mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard extend the attention to detail, ensuring a stable, comfortable playing surface.
