Ditson - GC-15E AGED Sunburst

The Ditson by Sigma GC 15E AGED has that mysterious aura of instruments that have already lived a thousand stories. Its 'distressed satin' finish doesn't just simulate wear; it releases the vibration of the mahogany top for immediate, matt projection. It's the perfect tool for those who hate overly shiny varnishes and overly flashy sounds.

Its 14-fret Grand OM architecture strikes just the right balance between the power of a Dreadnought and the clarity of an Auditorium. There's a generous 45mm headstock, so you don't get tangled up when playing complex arpeggios or picking. The neck remains stable thanks to the dovetail joint, a traditional method that promotes sustain throughout the neck.

Comfort becomes the norm with the 'low' profile, sculpted to fit the palm of the hand effortlessly. You can reach the highest notes without contortion thanks to the clean cutaway. It's a godsend for improvising at folk parties or acoustic studio sessions. The natural bone saddles add an organic precision that plastic can never match.

Ready for amplification, it incorporates a discreet but formidable Sigma preamp. This system respects the raw grain of the mahogany and the response of the factory-fitted D'Addario EXP16 strings. The chrome Diecast tuning machines ensure solid tuning stability, even when you're attacking the strings with fervour.
