Combine V-Class architecture with the new Grand Pacific body shape and a host of player-friendly features, and you have a guitar worthy of any musician's toolkit. The Builder's Edition 717e offers a rewarding, inspiring take on the classic dreadnought acoustic design, with softly rounded shoulders and body edges chamfered to foster a comfortable playing experience. The interior bracing enhances this model's tonal response with a pleasing blend of projection and sustain, also improving intonation up and down the fretboard for an altogether more musical, harmonic response free of sour notes that often frustrate high-level acoustic players when recording. The rosewood/spruce body/top configuration is a well-loved standard of the acoustic guitar world, valued for its balance, clarity and warmth. Complete with ES2 electronics, the Builder's Edition 717e is an ideal choice for almost any musical scenario.
