Description
The Gold Tone F-6 is a compact acoustic-electric guitar with a distinctive Folkternative design and standard E-to-E guitar tuning. Its larger F-style body provides a resonant air chamber for increased volume and low-end response, while the 15" scale offers more room for the fretting hand than typical short-scale instruments. The result is an unusual guitar-like instrument with a tonal character that can add mandolin-style color to recordings, performances, and songwriting.
Comfortable Playability and Easy Electrification
The F-6 features a radiused rosewood fingerboard, 21 frets, and a ZeroGlide nut designed for tuning stability and low action. A bridge-mounted transducer provides straightforward acoustic amplification, while the adjustable bridge and trapeze tailpiece complete the compact design. An included hard foam case provides protection for transport and storage.
