With one strum you will hear that rich low-end. The Deep Forest Ebony ACE has a warmth that you will not find on a typical spruce top guitar. When the wood blends of the Ebony ACE are coupled with the size, shaping, and bracing of this auditorium cutaway, you enjoy added articulation and an easy-to-achieve great guitar tone that some have described like having a natural compression. With the integrated Barcus Berry active electronics, the Deep Forest Ebony ACE is ready for the stage as well as any all-acoustic opportunity you get. STRIPED EBONY TOP Striped Ebony is prized as a tonewood for it's deep and strong bass and lower mids, while still providing clear highs and slightly scooped mid ranges similar to rosewood. OKOUME BACK & SIDES The Okoume back and sides keep the tones more toward the warmer side. AUDITORIUM BODY WITH CUTAWAYThe Auditorium body is a mid size, with excellent balance and projection. Combined with the cutaway, this guitar has modern looks, and playability.
