Frequently asked questions
Which guitar projects better volume and carries across a room?
The Dreadnought Concerto CE's larger 16" lower bout and all-myrtlewood construction deliver bold projection and powerful low end suited for live performance. The Concert CE prioritizes balanced, warm intimacy over pure volume projection.
Which is better for fingerstyle and studio recording?
The Concert CE's compact size, hand-voiced redwood-myrtlewood pairing, and punchy dynamics make it ideal for detailed studio work and fingerstyle. Its 19.875" body and tapered depth reduce fatigue during extended recording sessions.
Are the playability and electronics comparable?
Both feature 25.5" scale length, Eastern hard rock maple necks, ebony fingerboards, and LR Baggs Anthem TRU-Mic systems. The Concert has a 1.75" nut width; the Dreadnought uses Gotoh 381 tuners versus the Concert's Gotoh 510s, but both are premium quality.
What's the main tonal difference between the wood choices?
The Concert combines figured redwood's warm, bold harmonic punch with myrtlewood's clarity and sustain. The Dreadnought's all-myrtlewood construction emphasizes shimmering highs and powerful lows across a wider dynamic range, making it more versatile for varied playing styles and genres.
