Boasting premium tonewoods, appointments, and visual details, this special-edition cutaway Grand Auditorium delivers incredible playing comfort and all-purpose musical versatility. Figured AA-grade Indian rosewood back and sides and a Sitka spruce top yield a dynamic tonal character with warm lows, pristine trebles, and a slightly scooped midrange. Internal V-Class bracing produces louder volume, longer sustain, and improved harmonic agreement between every note played.

A bold blacktop soundboard commands attention, its dramatic finish beautifully framed by green abalone edge trim and Hawaiian koa binding around the body, soundhole, fretboard, and peghead. Five-Star fretboard inlays and a Faceted Star peghead inlay—inspired by the stars of the U.S. flag—are rendered in mother-of-pearl. The appointment package also includes a figured koa backstrip and heel cap, a green abalone peghead logo, an ebony backstrap, dark-stained bone bridge pins with Australian opal green dots, and Gotoh 510 antique chrome tuners with black buttons. A special interior label indicates this model’s special-edition status.
