Due to its solid construction, the Sigma S00M-18S produces a very powerful tone, which especially fingerstyle fans will love to the highest degree. The fine 00-12 Fret Western guitar from the Sigma Custom Shop also impresses with its high-quality materials and classic appearance, reminiscent of the early generations of modern acoustic guitar. The overall package is rounded off by a robust Sigma SSC-OM Softshell Case with a stable backpack set, which is included in the scope of delivery.
To generate a powerful and defined sound, the manufacturer relies on a construction that consists of an Adirondack spruce top and a mahogany body. This way, every note is unfolded quickly and clearly with an additional warm touch. The short mahogany neck is equipped with a fine ebony fingerboard marked with fine dot inlays and has 20 frets. A combination of a compensated bridge inlay and a 44.5 mm wide nut made of bone ensures clean intonation over the entire scale length of 645 mm.
In keeping with its traditional appearance, the open headstock is equipped with side-mounted nickel tuners that guarantee precise tuning of the 6 steel strings. Similar to its historical originals, the Sigma S00M-18S is kept optically rather simple. Thus the top is edged with a discreet multi-ply binding, which perfectly matches the multi-stripe soundhole rosette. The high-quality instrument is finished with a gauzy high-gloss lacquer that allows a deep insight into the versatile grain of the wood.
