The S6 is best suited for fingerstyle guitarists and solo accompanyists. For someone interested in rock and blues looking for an acoustic to cut through a crowded mix, the S6 is probably not the right choice (though Seagull does offer guitars that fit those needs). You don’t want to put the S6 down once you start playing it.ĭue to the cedar and cherry wood, the sound of the S6 is dark, deep, and warm, perfect for fingerstyle guitar. Everything from complex chording to single-note runs play smoothly and easily. This is an acoustic guitar that plays better than most electrics you’ll find. When you play a Seagull S6, the first thing you’ll likely notice is just how smooth the action is. It also sports a Tusq nut and compensated saddle. Both the fingerboard and bridge are made of rosewood, and the guitar’s finish is a semi-gloss lacquer. The Seagull S6 features a solid cedar top with wild cherry back and sides. Our review model, the S6, is one their most popular models, and after spending some time with it up close, we see why, since it is easily one of the best-playing acoustic guitars we’ve ever seen.
Crafted in Canada under the leadership of master luthier Robert Godin (of celebrated Godin guitars fame), they represent excellent value for the money. Seagull acoustics might very well be the best secret in the acoustic guitar business. Given its ease of play and its price, the Seagull S6 may very well be the ultimate beginner’s acoustic guitar, though seasoned players will love its warm, versatile tone.
