New Composite Acoustics GX-HG - Grand Concert, High Gloss Acoustic Guitar

Every day we go to work in a shop full of the best wooden acoustic guitars known to man. And here we are selling synthetic instrument. Sacrilege, you say? Not at all. Composite guitars fill a niche for many of our customers. They play great, sound surprisingly full and warm, and are all but impervious to humidity changes, temperature fluctuations, and other dangerous phenomena. Take 'em anywhere that you'd be afraid to take your handcrafted wooden beauties... the beach, your boat, camping, Chuck E. Cheese's... For that matter, use them on any live gig. You'll be amazed how good they sound amplified. (Also see the short-scale CA "cargo" model that we stock.)

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"CA makes the perfect guitar for travel, gigging and outdoor play. But they are also extremely satisfying so you may find you play it as much as your traditional 'wooden' guitars. I have one that goes to many jam sessions and campfires and I love it." - Paul Heumiller

"What a great guitar this is. The playability is perfect and it sounds great acoustically or amplified." - Al Petteway

Another Satisfied Dream Guitars Customer:
"Suffice it to say I'm very pleased with my new guitar and thank you so much for your help in finding her! All my guitarist friends know all about your site from my urging. The only down side to this whole deal was that you didn't include an Al Petteway CD in the case pocket, (what a player he is). Thanks so much Paul and Joe." - Scott W.
