Seagull Slims Down
Seagull releases S6 Original counterpart with New Slim neck
For immediate release:
Montreal, Canada-February 14th, 2006- Most of us think we could all use
a slightly slimmer, trimmer version of ourselves (especially after the
holiday season comes and goes). However, does this also translate to
your acoustic guitar?…..Sure! Why not!!
Godin Guitars, the Canadian manufacturers of Seagull acoustic guitars,
has put this idea into motion after realizing that certain players love the S6
Original but prefer a more traditional feeling nut width. So, Godin made it
happen!
Introducing the New S6 Original Slim featuring (you guessed it) a comfort-
able, slimmer than traditional 1.72” (4,37 cm) nut width. The same nut
width as its parlor sized little friend with the big sound, the Seagull Grand.
The Slims cream binding also helps differentiate this model from its S6
Original counterpart. The combination of the solid cedar top and wild
cherry back & sides gives this guitar a full, warm contoured sound, further
accentuated by the comfort of the silver leaf maple neck with rosewood
fingerboard and double function truss rod. Another key characteristic to
these guitars, as with all Seagull guitars, is the use of genuine lacquer
finish, which enables the top to breathe and vibrate freely. This in turn
promotes the aging process of the guitar, meaning that your instrument
will actually sound better the more it is played over time.
The S6 Original Slim keeps with the same high standards of quality and
musicality, which has garnered the ever-popular S6 Original many
accolades and awards since its early beginnings. The Seagull
S6 Original….available in both regular and diet!!!
