Sawtooth ST-MPL-AEJC-12 Jumbo Acoustic Electric 12-String Guitar, Solid Spruce Top

Manufacturer’s Description

Solid Sitka Spruce Top​

Sitka Spruce delivers a broad dynamic range, which produces a crisp, immediate articulation while being versatile in terms of its sound. This makes sitka spruce suitable for just about any style of playing.​

Sitka Spruce has a warmer, more fundamental sound, largely free of overtones. When combined with Flame Maple, the combination produces sounds that are clear and loud, and tend to emphasize the fundamental of a note more than its overtones.

Flame Maple Back & Sides

Flame Maple is a very hard type of wood with good tonal qualities and good sustain. Flame Maple has a strong low-end response and plenty of projection and clarity in the top end, and can be loud and project well. Flame Maple can also provide a considerable amount of treble.​

Flame maple has a relatively quick note decay and provides excellent separation where every note sounding at the same time has clear definition. This makes it a great choice for any live performances because the clarity of tone cuts through the mix well and will lead to less feedback.

Fishman Presys II Preamp/Tuner

These preamp systems feature Volume, Tone shaping (Bass, middle and treble), and Phase controls; a pre-wired Fishman Sonicore pickup and low profile control knobs. Also includes a built in tuner, low battery indicator and a separate battery box.

Ovangkol Pinned Bridge​

The Sawtooth Maple Series combines an Ovangkol bridge with traditional bridge pin design and compensated saddle, delivering a full, warm, sound and accurate intonation.

Ovangkol is a beautiful wood with musical characteristics that are very similar to Rosewood, with a slightly fuller midrange and a top end that’s not quite as bright as maple.

Ovangkol Fretboard with Pearl Block Inlays

Combining Ovangkol with custom Sawtooth Inlays and traditional narrow frets produces a striking fretboard that produces great tone.​

Ovangkol is a beautiful wood with musical characteristics that are very similar to Rosewood, with a slightly fuller midrange and a top end that’s not quite as bright as maple.

Maple Neck

Maple has a strong low-end response and plenty of projection and clarity in the top end. The Maple/Ovangkol combination contributes to bright and loud sound, and generates a tight, focused tone with little overtone presence.
