Robert Godin founded the Seagull Guitar company already in 1982 and it is still a big concern to him to produce high quality guitars with a great sound affordable. The Seagull S 6 was the first in a long line of Seagull guitars to achieve these goals through innovative design, quality and sound. Today, the S 6 is a classic and in this price range in terms of voluminous sound unsurpassed.
Accordingly, it Dreadnought comes with a solid, well-selected cedarwood top on a body of Canadian wildkrische and provides warm and powerful basses, nuanced and vocal mids, as well as brilliant highs and is therefore ideal for a powerful vocal accompaniment with strumming and flatpicking.
If you want to play the Seagull S6 acoustic guitar with electric amplification, you can simply fall back on the built-in Quantum 1T pickup from the house Godin . The combination of the lower bridge pickup and preamplifier provides the player with a treble and bass 2-Band tone control and an integrated tuner for quick tuning between songs to have the right sound in the right tuning at hand at all times.
All the tonewoods used in the Seagull S 6 come from sustainable Canadian forestry and are treated with a wafer-thin and vibratory Semi-Gloss finish. In addition, the compensated web insert made from Graph Tech TUSQ for a clean intonation and a flat string position, while the chrome die-cast mechanics keep the tuning clean.
With a saddle width of 45.7mm, even larger fingers have room on the fingerboard.

Ordered this guitar groom music store as the price was more competitive than elsewhere.
Initially was worried about delivery as it was shipped from Germany.
The guitar arrived in pristine condition as it was extremely well packed. The guitar is a beautiful guitar with perfect action and is an absolute pleasure to play. I highly recommend music store for an excellent service and will buy from them again without hesitation.
