It’s often been said amongst professional acoustic guitar players, that the grand auditorium is arguably one of the best all around acoustic models.
It’s here where Vintage, with the superb VGA990 Electro-Acoustic Sweetwater Guitar with its divine grand auditorium single cutaway body, excels once again in the world of high quality electro acoustic guitars.
With a slightly wider, deeper variation on the standard auditorium shape, this exceptional electro acoustic guitar delivers volume and dynamics aplenty with an excellent balance of the bass and treble frequencies, while the slender waist helps tighten the midrange, control overtones and keep the voice from being too bottom heavy.
The VGA990 features the classic, solid spruce top/mahogany body tonewood construction to deliver impressive sonic characteristics, with detailed, touch-sensitive harmonics and dynamics, with remarkable volume and projection.
With a palm-friendly mahogany neck, super smooth, bound fingerboard with dot inlays, this gorgeous electro acoustic almost plays itself, while smooth-geared, closed-back chrome machine heads, ensure tuning accuracy and stability. The Vintage VGA990 is stylish to say the least, with multiple black/white back body binding, ornate abalone rosette and tortoiseshell scratchplate.
Electro-acoustic players are also in for a real treat, as this superb acoustic guitar features the same Vintage preamp that’s highly respected in the world of electro acoustic guitars. Controls include volume, bass, middle and treble to enhance the natural timbres without colouring the sound. This unobtrusive preamp also features a phase switch, tuner display and low battery indicator.
With the VGA990 Electro-Acoustic Sweetwater Guitar, Vintage has elevated the whole grand auditorium concept, within construction, playability and tone, taking an already recognised style of electro acoustic guitar to the next level.
Perfect for all styles, including fingerpicking, arpeggio, vibrant percussive strumming and solo note runs, the VGA990 does it all. There’s no need to take another guitar to the gig…..unless it’s another cool Vintage model. Play on.
