Crafted at the intersection of comfort, rich sound and high-level performance, the Next Generation Builder's Edition 524ce adds an exciting new flavor of acoustic inspiration to our collection of player-focused guitars. This thoughtfully contoured Grand Auditorium sports a beveled armrest, beveled cutaway and chamfered edges, adding up to a remarkably comfortable, easy-playing feel for any style. Tonally, solid mahogany paired with back and sides of responsibly sourced Shamel ash combine for a warm, focused midrange sound that includes a touch of natural compression from the hardwood top to smooth out the attack, while the scalloped V-Class bracing inside strategically improves top vibration for an even richer, warmer, more powerful response. Players are sure to appreciate the adjustability of the new Action Control Neck and the intuitive controls of our new Claria electronics, all part of the Next Generation design philosophy. Visual details include a single-ring Italian acrylic rosette, Compass inlays, antique chrome Gotoh 510 tuners, a firestripe pickguard, and a glossy Kona Burst finish with a satin-finished neck.
