Between its top-tier tonewood pairing, 12-fret Grand Concert body and stunning appointments, the Next Generation PS12ce 12-Fret sets a new standard of tone, comfort and visual artistry even within the premium Presentation Series. This compact acoustic-electric boasts back and sides of solid Honduran rosewood that yield an exceptionally smooth, refined voice with rich, blooming overtones, while the sinker redwood top contributes remarkable dynamic range, touch sensitivity and cedar-like warmth. The scalloped V-Class bracing inside enhances the response with more power and sustain while also improving overall warmth and resonance, while the 12-fret configuration adds a touch of additional midrange presence along with a supremely comfortable, slinky feel. It all comes together in a beautifully detailed package featuring ebony binding with paua edge trim, a paua rosette, an Indian rosewood pickguard, abalone-dotted ebony bridge pins, California Vine inlays in shell, and a full-body gloss finish with a shaded edgeburst for the back and sides.
