Boasting a classic tonewood pairing and the compact Grand Concert body shape, the 412ce combines rich sound with a comfortable, intimate playing experience that's especially well-suited to fingerstyle play but can cover a wide array of styles and genres. The combination of Indian rosewood back and sides with a Sitka spruce top produces a balanced, clear voice with warm lows, pristine trebles and a slight scoop in the midrange, along with a robust overtone response. Inside, our V-Class bracing dials up more volume, longer sustain and improved tunefulness all the way up the ebony fretboard. With ES2 electronics on board, players can count on authentic plugged-in sound in any scenario. It ships with a deluxe hardshell case.

CASE/GIG BAG: Hardshell Case Included.
