The first Grand Orchestra guitar to be built with V-Class bracing, the 818e showcases the power and resonance of a jumbo-style body alongside surprising soft-touch sensitivity and articulation. Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce deliver their distinctive combination of warm lows, pristine trebles and lush, blooming overtones, leaving a slight scoop in the midrange that's perfect for playing with other instruments or vocals. With an Antique Blonde top finish treatment, Mission inlays in mother-of-pearl and abalone, and a paua shell single-ring rosette, the 818e sports a vibrant aesthetic that sets it apart from its 800 Series counterparts. It ships with ES2 electronics in a deluxe hardshell case with a Western Floral pattern.
