GIBSON CSMCE

The Gibson CSM-CE Songmaker, Solid Mahogany Series Grand Concert Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar has the pedigree to be on any stage.

A supremely comfortable grand concert cutaway design with high quality solid woods and advanced Fishman electronics all combine to produce rich, powerful and versatile tones. The solid spruce top on solid mahogany back and sides produces wonderful, bold resonance with tonal integrity.

Eyecatching features include the fine woods, tortoise shell pickguard, chrome Gibson tuners, solid mahogany neck, an ebony fingerboard with abalone dot inlays plus rosewood body and fingerboard binding.

This superior performance model has built-in active Fishman electronics, with an undersaddle pickup/miniature electret microphone and preamp combination. Blend the pickup and microphone together for a powerful and cohesive acoustic guitar tone that is deeper and more "filled out", than the sound of either the microphone or pickup alone.

Levels are set by the master volume and blend controls. Traditional shelving-style bass and treble, plus a semi-parametric "Contour" EQ are included so you can shape your guitar's tone exactly to taste. To complete the package, Fishman include a phase switch and an adjustable notch filter, both essential for fighting feedback.
