This 2008 Paul McGill Super Ace Nylon String Crossover is regarded as one of the very finest designs for the modern Nylon string player who crosses genres. Many top pros including Chet Atkins, Muriel Anderson, Earl Klugh and Peter White have performed and recorded with McGill guitars. Paul is an innovator who really knows how to build what players need and want. The Super Ace has a deep cutaway and an extended fingerboard providing full access to all 24 Frets. There is an onboard RMC pickup system as well, just plug in and play. But McGill guitar also have amazing tone and pleasing energy, acoustically or plugged in this is a great Crossover/Hybrid Nylon string guitar. Flamed Maple body and a Red Cedar top, all wrapped in figured Koa Bindings. Beautiful inside and out! (*recorded acoustically)

I play Nylon as well as steel and I play a wide array of musical styles. So guitar designs that offer superb playability and modern improvements such as a radiused fingerboard, cutaway and narrower neck make perfect sense to me. The McGill Super Ace goes even further with an extended fingerboard and pro quality RMC pickup. This is a player's guitar, there's nothing you can't do on it. Just listen to Al play it!
An ideal guitar for "thumb style" players who love the Chet Atkins - Jerry Reed style of playing. It's outfitted with a great pickup system and plays like a dream. The mahogany neck seems to warm up the acoustic tone in a nice way.
