Most of the world's leading guitar brands have OEM production in Asia, while the North American musical instrument company Seagull Guitar still has a chain in Canada and the United States, including wood, pickups, related accessories, factories and luthiers. And Seagull has also won a good market reputation with its affordable price, excellent quality and all-round style.
The Seagull's performance in terms of pitch is outstanding. Many guitar enthusiasts will find that after tuning each string individually, the tone is still inaccurate, and often needs to go back for further fine-tuning, because the tension of the string is changed during the tuning process, and the neck will be slightly deformed accordingly. Tuning is therefore not only about adjusting the strings, but also about maintaining the balance of the neck. The tapered headstock of the Seagull guitar provides a vertical string pull that minimizes the effect of neck twisting. This makes it easy for the guitar to tune the strings and stay in tune for long periods of time, which is especially beneficial for a large number of players who use open tuning.
In terms of the neck, the Seagull has also been strengthened and some maple pins have been implanted at the root of the neck, which solves the problem of string running due to different grip strengths, and improves the stability of the neck again.
Seagull's S series is the most popular, among which the standard S6 Cedar uses a warm tone of red pine panel with a hard texture of Canadian cherry, cherry wood and mahogany and rosewood sound performance is similar, with a mellow and sweet timbre, but the texture is irregular, the shape is very eye-catching, the price is about 5000 yuan, and it can be used for singing and finger playing. Another S6 Spruce uses a spruce panel, which is more rigid than the standard cedar, the sound is brighter, and the price is about 1000 yuan more expensive.
In addition, the Seagull product line also includes the M series and the Artist series. The biggest difference between the three collections is the difference between the back and side panels, the S series is cherry plywood, the M series is mahogany plywood, and the Artist series is full single, with mahogany, Indian rosewood and maple in mahogany, Indian rosewood and maple, with gorgeous workmanship and inlay, for professionals and collectors.
