auf www.gibson.com finde ich 5 Gitarren mit der Bezeichnung "Gibson Songwriter Deluxe". Ich erkenne nicht, was die Modelle unterscheidet:
- Songwriter Deluxe Custom ($ 4'300.--)
With its abalone trim and distinctive mother of pearl fingerboard and headstock inlays, the new 2009 Songwriter Deluxe Custom is the finest offering from Gibson's Songwriter family of acoustics. It is considered one of the world's finest sounding square-shouldered acoustics, crafted to reflect simple and sophisticated elegance. - Songwriter Deluxe Standard ($ 4'200.--)
The Songwriter Deluxe Standard sets a new benchmark for modern acoustic guitars. Combining time-honored production techniques such as Gibson’s renowned 1930s- bracing pattern with custom red spruce top braces and cutting-edge appointments such as a 12”-16” compound radius fingerboard for electric guitar-like playing action, this guitar is a versatile, easy player with maximum tone, volume and projection.
This big-bodied, square-shouldered dreadnought is built from the classic tonewood combination of Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides. Advanced X-bracing made of scalloped Adirondack red spruce braces bonded with hide glue to support the top pays tribute to the power-house dreadnoughts of yesterday.
Classic features like maple binding, rosewood fingerboard and bridge and a one-piece quarter-sawn mahogany neck all contribute to the tonal brilliance of this guitar while finish details like the abalone soundhole rosette, mother-of-pearl diamond eye fingerboard and headstock inlays, custom two-point tortoise pickguard, back marquetry strip and gold Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners all contribute to its elegant styling. Gibson’s hand-sprayed nitrocellulose lacquer in Antique Natural or Vintage Sunburst finish ensures a beautiful sheen and authentic aging that doesn’t interfere with the guitar’s resonance. - Songwriter Deluxe Studio ($ 3'000.--)
At the heart of Gibson’s square-shoulder dreadnought line of acoustic guitars is the Songwriter series, and the Songwriter Deluxe Studio is its most fundamental offering. First introduced in 2003, the Songwriter Deluxe Studio combines Gibson’s time-honored bracing patterns of the 1930s with our original dreadnought shape, and it has gained worldwide acclaim over the past decade. - Songwriter Mahogany ($ 2'900.--)
Following in the tradition of Gibson's popular Songwriter series, the Songwriter Mahogany model, exclusive to Musician's Friend, boasts a pedigree that will make other acoustic guitars envious, as well as world-class construction from the acclaimed luthiers at Gibson Acoustic's facility in Bozeman, Montana. The Songwriter Mahogany is crafted with premium tonewoods and vintage-certified details to make it a proud heir to this storied series. From tone, to playing feel, to appearance, this is a first-class dreadnought, and the perfect choice for anyone from the singer-songwriter to the rock, pop, blues, folk or country performer.
In addition to a solid Sitka spruce top with scalloped spruce braces in a 1930s “advanced-X" pattern, the Songwriter Mahogany has solid mahogany back and sides with a decorative marquetry strip inlaid in the back. Its one-piece mahogany neck has a rounded profile that is extremely comfortable in the hand, and an ebony fingerboard with mother-of-pearl dot inlays. The guitar's 25.5" scale length gives it a bold, deep voice and an extremely firm low end on par with the greatest dreadnoughts of old, perfect for booming out rhythm chords or projecting subtler fingerstyle performances. A 14th fret neck/body joint helps you reach those high notes with ease, and the traditional Gibson 12-inch fingerboard radius contributes to smooth fretting and easy bending.
Performance ready, the Songwriter Mahogany comes equipped with a Fishman Ellipse Matrix Blend pickup system, perfect for running the full, accurate acoustic tone of this premium instrument to your amp or PA of choice. A traditional belly-up bridge made from solid ebony offers enhanced resonance and sustain, while gold Grover Rotomatic tuners provide an elegant touch up top. All these features are enhanced with a hand-sprayed nitrocellulose lacquer available with an Antique Natural or Vintage Sunburst finish.
